Hi Chris, You have no doubt noticed that very few posts are ever deleted. There are about three reasons I delete a post: 1. It endangers the poster and the board due to confessions of/ or requests for illegal activity. 2. Spam - advertising, irrelevant material, etc. which clutter the board and use up resources needlessly. 3. Non-respect of the purposes of this forum. This third point is the most difficult to articulate. We are a support forum with the mandate to provide a safe place for boylovers to talk about their faith. We encourage all posters to be honest in searching for truth about who they are and their faith expressions. It doesn't bother me that people respectfully question certain aspects of our situation. The problem comes in where people say, in very disrespectful ways, that one can not be a Christian and a boylover at the same time. To my way of thinking this undermines the very essence of what we are trying to do here. And that is where I draw the line. Thanks for bringing this up, it is often very hard to define. Peace of Christ, Bach
