When so much direct evidence exists-- people go to the source-- ie what you have written. They come to their own conclusions-- and make their judgments based on what you have written.

People commit suicide because of hopelessness about their own lives and a sense of pain and purposelessness. I am quite sure that no one will be so affected by what is said to or about you, and what is let stand, and what therefore could be taken as positive for the community, about you. That just isn't the kind of thing that affects anyone so deeply, as to cause them to kill themselves.

Willful,
You wrote;
[...what you have written..reveals your goals...(readers) make their judgments based upon what you have written...]
I am unsure as to what you are wanting to mean here. If you could post answers to the following, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
True or False:
P. My goals are to save lives, prevent life-ruining conditions/addiction and to purge the anti-Semitic statements being allowed to stand here.
Q. The poster of the name calling against me here in discussion, based those names on what my goals are.
R. There is something that I have written that justifies all of the names that I am called here
S. The anti-Semitic statement, [...No non-Christian can enter heaven...] being allowed to be seen as supportive here, shows a sensitivity to Jewish readers.
