It's quite ironic to complain on ATS about censorship elsewhere on the internet. Especially in the eyes of someone who has just (in recent days)
experienced how hard any truthful, honest, accurate, calm, reasonable and logical exposure of the true nature and purpose of ATS and other similar
sites on the internet is clamped down on. Provided one's commentary about it has at least the remotest chance of waking people up to what is being
done to them, using God's and Jesus' own words, warnings and advice about it.
Hence, I won't do that now. Not much use, gets deleted anyway. And for good measure, a false accusation is made concerning supposedly serious
violations of the terms and conditions, nice discrediting paintjob to get people to ignore the other commentary that is left as well, and choose
ignorance over truthful and important knowledge and the "beneficial teaching" mentioned at
2 Timothy 4:3,4 (unlike most stuff on here that is unimportant or just simply
false, or downright filth pushing buttons like hatred, fear, pride and vanity, often promoting and encouraging a corruption of both mind and heart,
see
1 Tim 6:3-5, and keep in mind that the term "obsessed with" in there can also
be rendered "mentally diseased over").
How can truth (about ATS) be a serious violation of the terms and conditions, didn't see that one in there. If you don't like what you're hearing,
fine, but what is this obsession of keeping that information from anyone else who might read the comment and could get the sense of the Bible texts
quoted (an extremely remote chance in the first place), that pertains not only to ATS, but how things are going elsewhere in the world (including the
internet) as well? Concerning the only conspiracy that actually matters (fine, I'll do just the one Bible text now):
“However, the inspired word clearly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to misleading inspired statements
and teachings of demons, by means of the hypocrisy of men who speak lies, whose conscience is seared as with a branding iron.”(1 Timothy 4:1,2).
Don't take it so personal, it happens everywhere in the world. "The ruler of this world" (John 12:31;14:30) and "god of this system of things" (2 Cor
4:4) "is misleading the
entire inhabited earth" (Rev. 12:9). Why feel singled out when someone points it out that that also counts for ATS? Why
is that not allowed here? What's the big deal? What are you so worried about? Youtube is just as bad, as is social media. Or CARM.org. Or
talkorigins.org. Or any forum out there about conspiracies or supposed 'truth seeking'. Any place where people can comment on the internet and
moderators are around, whose main purpose should be removing spam and blatant insults with foul language, trolling and other types of filth. Not
well-thought-out comments with "beneficial teaching" directly from God('s word) that one just doesn't like or wants to "put up with" as described at 2
Timothy 4:3,4. Leaving especially the trolling (often involving ridicule, scoff, mockery and attempts to discredit the very words of God as found in
the Bible, compare
Gal. 6:6-10) commentary untouched (when no apparent foul
language was used, or it isn't obvious enough for most readers). And any attempt to explain how to recognize such trolling behaviour and ridicule,
scoff, mockery and discrediting behaviour, is deemed a serious violation of the terms and conditions and subsequently removed, but not the troll
comments. What, you are not allowed to expose and explain how to recognize the most harmful* types of trolling (*: because of their subtlety among
other things), so that a person, if they get the sense of it, can resist it, possibly not even read the comments anymore (and protect their minds and
hearts from them)?
See
John 8:42-47 for potential answers to some of these questions (starting with: "Why
is that not allowed here?").
Make no mistake, I prefer the trolling commentary to remain as well, if one is allowed to expose their true nature and purpose, so that everyone can
see how it works. Perhaps even the ones making them if they can be convinced to have a look in the mirror to see themselves in a new light. Of course,
the ones mentioned in 1 Timothy 4:1,2 and the one described in John 8:42-47 as a spiritual "father", don't want that kind of exposure or potential
waking up to what is going on in this world and with humanity. And the very well described resulting patterns of human behaviour and attitudes (what's
going on in mind and heart) in God's Word, the Bible. Which are easily observed when one gets the sense of it (the evidence for the only conspiracy
that matters). Compare
Matthew 13:13-15.
Probably said too much again. My entire comment still pertains the following terms used in the opening paragraph in the OP:
... censorship...group think is controlled... TPTB.
As those powers that be are described in various locations in God's Word, i.e. by God, "the One teaching you to benefit yourself,* [Or “for your own
good.”] the One guiding you in the way you should walk. If only you would pay attention to [His] commandments! Then your peace would become just
like a river and your righteousness like the waves of the sea." (
Isaiah
48:17,18)
One of those locations quoted in its entirety (1 Timothy 4:1,2). A few of the others linked or partially quoted. The resulting "group think" also
described in some of those or others that were linked. So how could this comment cause thread drift? When all I'm doing is steering the thread in the
direction these powers that be don't want it steered, don't want humanity to know anything about, let alone get the sense of it and allow God to heal
their minds and hearts from what has been done to them (see Matthew 13:13-15 linked before and the prophecy at
Isa 6:9,10 referred to there).
