NikkiT2,
There is another aspect of this in its entierty that is important to me.
I feel that if a post is left unattended to here, that there is the potential for other to consider that Dr. Hsiung endorses the statement. A case in point that you wrote about is that you think that your posts in question are acceptable here because there is no determination made about them per my request to Dr. Hsiung. But I do not consider {spacific} answer to be endorsing the statement. A reply that he did not answer because he sometimes does not answer all posts that are in a collection of posts does not {to me} give me an answer as to if the posts that I had requested for a determination are or are not acceptable here inrelation to the guidlines of the forum which is my request to Dr. Hsiung. I feel that he could still give the determination requested by me even if he did not reply to such because he may not address evry post in a colloction of posts. I belive that the two are separate, one being a request for a determination, the other being that he sometimes doead not address all posts ina thread by the same poster.
Another case in point in the posting by Dr. Hsiung on the faith board the writing of Jean Jacque Rousseau. The post that I requested a determination about could have the potential for others to consider that DR. Hsiung endorsed the statement, that I felt put down christians, by Rousseau. This goes to the policy here about quoting someone, which is another guidline of the forum. His quoting of Jean Rousseau could mean that he would have written it himself, IMO, for there is the potential for one to think that he is endorsing what Rousseau wrote by quoting him. For when one quotes, without a disclaimer, the quote could be attributed to the quoter as well as who the quote came from.
I believe that a similar concept has the potential for others to think that way here in relation to posts that are not determined one way or the other that one requests a determination for.
I did not know if Dr. Hsiung endorsed what I had requested to him about in relation to Jean Rousseau or not. After dialog between me an Dr, Hsiung, a determination was made. I am having dialog with DR. Hsiung in relation to your posts so that a determination could be posted by DR. Hsiung that could answer as to if your posts in question are acceptable here or not. My requests for those determinations, as I see it, have not been determined one way or the other as of yet.
