Default Re: Whistleblower

UntoHim,

No, I am not happy. Three reasons.

1) if a crime is being committed and no one is calling the cops, then rather than do the right thing the crime is simply serving as a platform to advance some personal or social agenda. Victims are getting no help so it is just pretense that a thread like this is for the sake of victims.

2) There is no magic wand to make anything just go away... that is a drawback in a court of public opinion. Accusations, whether true or false, do their damage regardless. That is why there are laws against slander and libel. In my opinion, you cannot wholesale accuse a person or a group of criminal activity even anon in a public forum. You can get away with a lot in a public forum but there are limits.

Lastly, I find unsettling the degree that Christians will slander other believers and accuse them of crimes for what appears to be personal animosity and long standing offenses.

But, let’s accept your magic. I’ll stand down... unless others bring it back up.
