Don’t get banned.
Is it possible the mod meant that you were being “used” by the trolls to further their agenda?
Personally, I think the light of day on the freepmails is the proper remedy and then a statement by JR that he will ban those who send such freepmails that are reported to him.
That doesn’t mean, however, that a mod in a hurry couldn’t arrive at the remedy used in your case and at the words used in your case.
Thx for the ping.
As hideous and deadly as homosexuality is . . .
I think it is Jeremiah in the Bible who declares that the biggest/worst sin of Soddom and Gomorrah was . . .

PRIDE.
It was pride that lead to the other junk.
And THAT’S something all mortals can identify with.
We are to judge rightly . . . and judging sin is one of the critical things we must judge rightly.
Nevertheless, we must be very cautious in our attitudes and motives as well as goals for such judgments.
The measure, criteria according to which we judge others will be the standard by which we are judged. Who’s ready for THAT?
Haughty self-righteous judgment is spiritually hazardous—as POTENTIALLY hazardous as putting tab A in slot Z.
Ideally, judgment by believers is to be redemptive—preferably to the individual(s) involved—but at least to the society.
Scripture calls us foremost to judge ourselves to avoid being judged more harshly and more finally, ultimately by God.
Our land is increasingly in the cross-hairs of God’s judgment on at least 12 huge counts:
1. Utter rampant, institutionalized rebellion against God in a list of ways from the top institutions and designated leaders and stars in society on down.
2. Hostility to Israel. He meant what He said when HE SAID He would bless those who blessed Israel and curse those who cursed Israel.
3. Support of satanic Islam—particularly while trashing and censoring Christianity from public life.
4. abortion.
5. homosexuality.
6. glorifying all manner of sensuality, idolatry, hedonism, . . . worshiping the creature instead of The
Creator.
7. Calling good evil and evil good.
8. Murder and mayhem on a massive scale out of greed and power-mongering. Witness the deliberately supported drug oriented sub-culture.
9. Massive and literally devilish corruption on a massive scale.
10. Raging support rushing to overtly manifest the satanic global government at all costs as soon as possible.
11. Massive deadly population reduction schemes by said global government folks firmly in place and beginning to operate or on the brink of implementation in devastating ways.
12. Fathers neglecting their children and children in rebellion against their fathers. Remember the Scripture that in the last days God will send a remedy of turning the hearts of the fathers back to their children and the hearts of the children back to their fathers else He would smite the land with a curse.
I did not post the private e-mail of an actual Freeper. I would NEVER violate that trust. What I did was to post the unsolicited correspondence from an enemy Troll along with my response. The guy signed up the same day and then sent out a mass Freep mail to everyone who was defending traditional marriage on this thread.
The Admin Moderator deleted my post giving a rather naive reason that posting the intercepted correspondence from our political enemies somehow feeds their agenda. Frankly I cannot accept thar reasoning as valid.
I got another Freep mail from another enemy combatant who signed in the same day and I posted that freepmail as a warning to others.
At that point the Admin Moderator accused me if “actively promoting the homosexual agenda” apparently because, despite my decade long posting history, I pissed him off because I ignored his arbitrary decision to delete the Troll’s e-mail.
Well, I’m sorry but I can’t just sit still and allow anyone to insult my reputation. The mod did not act in haste. He or she acted deliberately and with malice aforethought. He later realized his folly and deleted his own post, but he did not apologize to either me or PROCON who was also falsely so accused.
I will defer to your pastoral guidance in this matter. I am tempted to repost the intercepted letters from the troll along with my response if the Admin Moderator fails to apologize and if I am breaking some stupid forum rule and it gets me suspended or banned, then I guess I’ll have to live with that. If you think I should just let it go, then I will.
I know you are busy today.
Thanks for always being there ffor us when we need this kind of pastoral guidance.
In Christ,
Marlowe.
In the present situation I would counsel cutting the mods some slack. Surely on even the best day they are handling many things and we only see the tip of the iceberg.
No doubt all of us who have been around here a long time have seen the chaos of liberals gloating of what they perceive to be a big win against us. I'm sure this NY-homosexuality law is no different and the fact that we are not being subjected to their rants on thread probably means the mods have been shutting them down at every turn.
