Why was Jim Robinson forced to delete the recent thread about the naughty teacher threads on aggregate?
I submit it could not be allowed to stand without damaging the image of the site.
People on those threads do not simply make off color jokes - they often attack posters who take adult teachers using students for sex as a serious matter. Is that lashing out not condoning? If not, then what is it exactly?
As a societal issue, this is coming ever more to the front of the stage. Taking no position...becomes taking a position.
The fence is too high and too long to straddle.
There is a passage in the Bible about people who harm children, or likewise cause others to lose their faith...and a millstone. And the depths of the sea. This passage is important enough to be included in more than one Gospel.
The principal matters.
I am not always well spoken.
I do make knee jerk reactions from time to time.
But this is important. It is not a sideshow. And I submit my reaction is far milder than what the words of scripture should inspire me to.
I deleted the thread because it was getting ugly.
You are correct.
Good point.
