My own guess is lighthearted humor, without rancor and malice, is still acceptable. “You’re so cute” is probably lighthearted enough.

The Apsotate Pope of all Purpose Prostitutes of the Reformation may be somewhat over the top. I look forward to having substantive discussions about some of these subjects. We are all so trained to connect personalities to discussions.

Clearly,

As Matt pointed out, we don’t delete things, as this gives the appearance of a ‘cover-up’ of sorts, and in internet/blog etiquette is considered to be somewhat dishonest.

Nothing gets deleted. If one of our writers does something that appears to be uncouth, we don’t cover it up.

Does this mean that threads with titles like, “Oh Ingrid you’re so cute when you distort” will be deleted?

Chris,

This is so excellent! These standards and guidelines that you want all of us to adhere to can only be described as “salt and light” in the blogosphere. Thank you for “raking the sandbox!” It needed to be tidied up.

Wow. If I didn’t know you were already saved I would have thought you have just walked down the blog aisle! Let us hold HIM up for ALL to see!

Great Chris.

As someone who enjoys reading this site I am very apprehensive about dipping my toe into the swirly pond of the comment section (My knowledge of the Word is somewhat lacking in comparison to many of the contributors here)

However I applaud the stance that is being taken here and I pray that it bears much fruitful and edifying discourse.

Godbless
