Dear friends,
In the interest of peace and harmony among the brethern, posts that tend to cause factions and division here will need to be deleted. The recent issue between a few of us was already resolved and there was no need to respond with hostile comebacks that only tend to revive the bad feelings that such posts cause. Therefore, I regrettably felt it necessary to delete a few posts on that thread and ask that the posters not be offended by this.
I love posting my spiritual convictions but as we saw in the past, they caused arguments, division and factions so as you can see, I have not posted on religion or responded to posts that I normally would respond to regarding religion or politics in a long time and everything has been cool on the Candy Store.
I am asking that you also restrain yourselves from posting in a manner that would cause hard feelings, arguments, dissension, disharmony and hostilities here on the Candy Store. I was once a part of that kind of posting and saw the harm it did and stopped. If I can do it, then so can everyone. Let's leave that stuff to the Bronxboard and Back In The Bronx message board. We are the Bronx Candy Store and many of us left those other boards to get away from that.
While I do not take pleasure in censoring or deleting posts and have not done so in the past, it appears that it becomes necessary from time to time to delete a post or reply that tends to artificially resuscitate or prolong a thread which seems to be heading nowhere in being resolved and exposing other members to hostilities, not to push my weight around as moderator of the Candy Store, but in the interest of peace and harmony among friends. My pledge to you is to develop a skill to use discretion in determining what posts need to be deleted so that I do not come off as letting my position as Moderator run to my head. Please know that I do not take this matter lightly and wish it were not necessary at all, but although it is not a popular position to be in as Moderator, if it means keeping anyone from being offended by a hostile post and feeling that they need to leave, whereby losing a member, then someone needs to do it and I guess that's me.
Let's manifest the meaning of the Christmas season.....
"PEACE ON EARTH...GOODWILL TOWARD MEN"
In Friendship
Lenny

Apparently you won't be posting or at least published as in the past since all this has done is caused our moderator to determine what is acceptable to him and the heck with the rest of us. So unfair and so very unacceptable for BCS. Censorship in any form is unacceptable. Either we are adults in a free society or we are not. Apparently, BCS is not a fee society.

Thereis the old bucket of water story.....put your hand in and then pull it out. The water surrounds the entire bucket once again. No big deal.
