Believe whatever you want.
Thinking I included a banned word (when it usually just doesn't get posted when it is used) and then reported myself to have it removed for some... Unknown goal is absurd.

@kellyjay saidRight.

I thought I should try to just be honest and stick to my guns and all that and then I guess I felt a bit indignant and now I've wasted my time.
It has been bad form of me to play along.
@kellyjay saidIt may be. He is a "fornicator", by his own admission. A hypocrite, for sure. I think a liar too. He endorsed one of the creepiest "Christians" this forum has ever seen for his sexual slurs and his paedophile humour. And there is plenty of evidence that could lead someone to believe he is a racist. Meanwhile, he is a sanctimonious religionist. It might well seem important to him to wriggle a bit on this topic.

@kellyjay saidYou lied publicly for two years that I had mocked you with regard to your deceased child in order to justify your lengthy sullen huff, when in fact you had simply got in a tangle and contradicted yourself in a debate about society's right to intervene when religious extremism threatens the lives of children.
I agree, shame is that not every accusation is valid, so simple misunderstandings can be turned into hateful tirades. Not a lot of grace given, none should be excepted.
No "misunderstanding" there, just your repeated accusation. Those who respect you more than they respect me may well be under the impression your accusation was true, and you never swallowed your pride and corrected the record. Borderline hateful on your part, at least to my way of thinking. Not a lot of "grace" given by you, I note.

Would anyone like to go back to the topic here and discuss it? No idea where we left off. It seemed like it was basically done and nobody really wanted to discuss more on the ethics behind hell.
This has been completely derailed by accusations about deleting posts -- I really made a mistake of entertaining it.
The only sort of interaction you should have with people who spend years & years on the forum invested in personal drama is the topic of discussion.
I always fail in this, but I have to again resolve to just not touch arguments with all of this extraneous stuff on it. It distracts from the debates and it fuels the mutual hostility that wrecks the forum.
@philokalia saidBut you can approve of and endorse a poster for derailing 10 or 20 or 30 threads at a time day in day out when it suits you.

@philokalia saidI think you've tried your best to make the moral dimension of your beliefs coherent to someone with different beliefs from you. I don't think you need to persist with it. Certainly, don't do so on my account.
