> DR. Hsiung,
> In regards to the statement in question as to the poster being asked to rephrase her statement to make it OK here, the poster prefaced the statement with {I believe}.
> The generally accepted meaning of to rephrase a statement is to make it clearer to the reader and there are other meanings. It is my understanding here that when a poster is asked to rephrase a statement, that the new statement will mean something different from the origimal statement to make it clearer and be acceptable in relation to the guidlines of the forum.
> In this case here, the member left the statement in question the same and added a preface to it. When I read the statement, I feel inferior as a Jew (put down) when I read the member's new statement even with the added preface. Could you include in any reply to me here your rational for indicating that the statement that the member was asked to be rephrased was made to mean something different from the original meaning so that it could be acceptable here, if you are meaning that the member did rephrase the statement in question as to it meaning something different from the original writing so that it is now acceptable in relation to the guidlines of the forum?
