Oh, and take off this one too.
No. We can't.
where to start with the editing and tidying up for you Kish? At the point where dehlin offers water dog the mic? Or at the point where such an insane idea is pointed out and your feelings get hurt?

It's beginning to remind me of the Kent phenomenon.
Editing it is more of a travesty than a simple bump and response.

If you had objected to the post that was bumped when it was made or in the weeks since, maybe your whining would have some validity. Nothing since has been off-topic to the contemporary conversation or the OP. Editing topics and conversations for your sensitivities is overkill when you could have either addressed the topic or ignored it.
I see no precedent for editing threads for veering off a bit or hurting your feelings. Nor do i see precedent for editing threads after a bump if it is topical for the OP or another thread.
The exchange leading to your bitch is less off-topic than your bitch. And I hope this stunt doesn't become the reason for editing.

None of the crap you have appended to this thread has anything to do with Rollo's criticism of the Dehlin hit piece. So, piss off.

I can't believe it has now been close to two years since I wrote that far too long post. I put in a lot of time because I was angry after reading Greg Smith's two papers published by Interpreter, which I found to be unworthy of ANY scholarly consideration. And I feel the same way today.
