Default Censorship? Surely not.

Does this group have a hidden moderator? I am referring to the fact
that Daniel (Mins?) posting re the forthcoming arrival of his hero,
JC, has seemingly been "pulled". I can't find the relevant thread.

I disagree strongly with Daniel's religious views but he is entitled
to air them. Any moderation/suppression of his (off beat) ideas
should be handled by the membership of this group, not by some hidden/
unknown censor. Quite the best way to deal with such strange views as
espoused by Daniel is by peer pressu "Come off it Dan, I will be
ignoring you for the next four weeks before I next open one of your
postings and then see if you have appreciated just how absurd your
ideas are". Censorship by a "moderator" (whatever that means) in NOT
the way to deal with nutters.

Have I missed the thread?

I agreed with you Jack. It's the principal of freedom of speech that
matters.

So many dictated to, by so few !
