You wrote, [...I'd consider that OK=acceptable...].
Since I requested that you declare as to if the statement is supportive or just acceptable to you, then I consider that your answer is that the statement is not supportive, but you are going to allow it anyway because it is acceptable to you.
Just because it is acceptable to you, that does not mean that it is an acceptable statement according to your own TOS here, but you are going to allow it anyway. Without there being posted by you your rationale for allowing what is not supportive to be acceptable, then readers could apply their own thinking as to what your rationale is for allowing an unsupportive statement to be acceptable by you. And more than that, the statement in question does not specify what postings and by who the poster is referring to. But I could be seen as the subject person and it then becomes my postings that could be thought to be those that challenge the health of the community. The use of that phrase could arouse anti-Semitic feelings toward me as IMHHHO the ancient false blaming of the Jews for bringing the Black Plague upon Europe that killed 1/2 the population as the Jews were blamed falsely for poisoning the wells. The plague was brought by a rat flea that spread the infection, unbeknownst to those accusers of the Jews at that time.
I do not want anyone to think that what you say is acceptable here to write about me that blames me for challenging the health of this community. For the posts to substantiate such a blameing are not specified. That means that readers could think that any of what I write here could challenge the health of the community. That could be what I write from a Jewish perspective as that the Jewish perspective is that one could have a new heart, a new spirit and a new mind as I posted from the book called Ezekiel. Or from the book called Genesis, where the Jewish perspective starts with,[...In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth...]. That could be what the poster meant, since there is nothing specified, as to what challenges the health of the community.
BY you saying that the statement in question is acceptable, you could allow me to become a victim of anti-Semitic violence, for the statement could put me in a false light and decrease the respect, regard and confidence in which I am held and induce disparaging, hostile and disagreeable opinions and feelings against me, blaming me (falsely) for challenging the health of this community. I am trying to save lives and prevent addictions and life-ruining conditions and bring life and life more abundantly to readers here. I am trying to offer educational facts to parents so that they could make a more informed decision as to drug their child or not in collaboration with a psychiatrist/doctor. That is supportive in any community unless the community wants those facts repressed so that the parent does not have what could be the information that could prevent their child from killing themselves and or others, and even commit mass-murder. I am following the rules here as any human being could do. And your rules say:
[...Sometimes the goals of these boards conflict. Our goal is of course that they be supportive. Another is that people feel free to post, since how else are they going to be supported. But being supportive takes precedence. My approach to civility is, it doesn't matter if someone really believes something--or to some extent even if it is true --if it is uncivil they shouldn't post it [Robert Hsiung 7-22-02]
Now you say that the statement in question is acceptable, but not supportive. I ask so that I can further be able to post my response to you here;
A. What is your rationale for saying that it is acceptable when your own TOS says not to post what is not supportive, for support take precedence?
