What happened to the Tom Brands Christian thread? I am kind of new at this, but I can't find it. I thought, generally speaking, that the thread was a good one with a lot of views and replies. Is it possible that it has been taken down?
 
If that is indeed correct (it being taken down) I would at least like to know why. The last time I was able to check, before it was taken down, the thread had received 6,418 views and 183 replies. To put that in some prospective there are 40 topics or threads on the wrestling main page at any one time. The 6,418 views was # 4 and the replies was at # 1. That would no longer be the case because the tournament is under way.
So why would the administer take down a thread that had gotten so much interest? It started with me just posting the Brands video. It was in no way my intention to start a conversation about religion in general, and Christianity in particular.
If it had gotten off the topic of wrestling, and I am ready to concede that in some measure, fine kick it over to one of the general discussion pages. I have a feeling that the administrator got some flack about it and just decided it was easier to just take it down. If that was the case what happened to freedom of speech? I didn't make anyone read it and/or comment on it, and as far as I know no one else made anybody read it and/or comment on it either. It's a bummer, kind of frustrating and even sad.
Maybe if we got enough people to wonder out loud what happened to the thread , and I am not sure how that would be done, they would put it back up or at least kick it over to one of the general topics thread.

Looks like it's gone. Somebody must have gotten very offensive in it.
 
I don't know why anyone would have been offended by that thread - was actually extremely civil for a thread which so much talk of religion and Jesus Christ
 
There have been some Temple pricks over here in the last 24 hrs starting nonsense
 
Maybe I could start the thread all over again and see how long it would take from them to take it down this time (a joke...as in not serious...as I won't do that...but it would be kind of fun. ;)
 
It was probably in violation of the board rules and more appropriate for the Off Topic forum. I'm no detective but that's my shot in the dark.

Crap. I was responding to someone else's posting of THE video. But in doing so the video (not actual but link) can be found. I am now going to assume that the administrator will nip this in the bud quickly. o_O
 
Crazy cause the churchs started the universities....Lame sauce too Attack a mans beliefs. Let alone a positive figurehead.
 
Blair's been here all day posting pbp. Good chance he took it down.
 
I can't answer that, ask him. I didn't really follow that thread. This forum is loosely moderated. I'm assuming something went wrong if it was taken down. It was a thread, no need to cry about it. Sheesh.
 
I have a rather odd and dry humor and there are many times that my humor doesn't translate very well (spoken or especially written). That last comment was hopefully taken as humor. I really didn't cry.

It was good he took it down IMO...Everybody gets cranky when it comes to it and God himself has ordained these three days for wrestling.

One thing is certain - it'll take a miraculous work of the entire Trinity to catch PSU at this point
 
So do I. I figured you were joking. I seriously have no clue why they took it down though.
