This website is designed to promote good, quality discussion. Sometimes the writers of the site will simply, as Greg Koukl would say, “put a stone in your shoe.” In other words, we want to get you thinking about the issues that truly matter. However, we reserve the right to monitor and/or reject certain comments and replies depending on their quality and value to the discussion. Bellator Christi has established certain guidelines that govern the posts that are permitted.
1. Comments and/or replies must not be derogatory in nature. Cursing and foul language will not be tolerated on this site.
2. “Ad Hominem” (against the man) attacks will not be permitted. “Ad hominem” comments attack a person(s) instead of the arguments presented.
3. Comments serving as “red herrings” which change the direction of the topic at hand may not be published, unless the comment deals with the topic in some fashion.
4. Comments advertising certain products (yes, we have had those kind of comments), with the exception of other blogging sites and/or websites that deal with the given topic, may not be permitted.
5. Any comment that is discriminatory towards a person’s gender, socio-economic status, citizenship, IQ, ethnicity, or other attributes will not be permitted.
6. Comments that rehash previous statements may not be permitted unless something new or noteworthy is added.
7. Comments that only serve as a “one-upmanship” may or may not be permitted depending on the comment’s quality.
8. Comments are evaluated individually, so there may be a gap of time between the comment and the publishing of the comment.
9. Comments should only deal with one or two aspects of the article to keep the conversation on topic.
The host reserves the right to add and delete comments at the host’s own discretion with or without warning. We certainly will allow comments and arguments that differ from ours as long as they are presented with class and integrity.
Blessings,
Brian G. Chilton
