Why is it that the good Reverend has everyone of his folders moderated?

I manually set aside all of his folders for further review.   Therefore,
they are not unmoderated, but they are not yet public either.  I'm
sure that's no problem for Brendan, since he deep links to them
on his website.

Why?

Why set them aside for further review?

What is in question?

I've seen his pictures, they're not pornographic.  The majority deals with the
bible and it's topics, and does not every christian church give free and full
access of the bible to children?  I've read your 'guidelines' you posted in
direct response to the original post, and this content does not go against
either.  It is safe for children, at least the 1 billion Christians would say
it is, it's on topic with lego, as it is made of lego (albeit some of it has
been modified), and it doesn't even infringe on any copyright.

I guess it could be a politcal move, the seperation of church and Brickshelf...

But you flat out denied any sort of anti-political intentions.

But it would seem to me that what you're really saying is that your guidelines
are missing a line.  "Are the pictures 'safe' for kids and is it 'safe' for the
rest of the 'politically correct' world?"


I think everyone needs to take a deep breath and relax and wait
for us to catch up on moderation.

KL

I have taken a breath.  And this is the question I came up with.  Please...
PLEASE correct me if am mistaken in what is staring me in the face.  Go ahead
and flame me if that's what makes you happy.
