> Now I may have requested to Dr. Hsiung to make a determination as to if that statement has the potential to arrouse antisemitic feelings. But I ask you this. Could not anyonre here have asked Dr. Hsiung to make that determination?Yes, but I would suggest the adminstrator is not qualified to make such a determination on his own. He can only offer an opinion. A fully qualified determination of the answer to that question could only be provided by a group of sociologists who methodically approach the question and whose conclusions are reviewed by a panel of qualified peers. The administrator here can only make a determination as to whether he will allow such statements at his site.
>Can I not be vigilant, even if I am the "lone dissenter", to have Dr. Hsiung address posts that in my opinion could have the potential to arouse antisemitic feelings?
You can, even if you were alone in your dissent but you are not.
And faithful Jews are not the only ones who do not assert that the first century heir to the Hebrew throne was a messiah. I make no such assertion either.
