Edah Bulletin Board: Home

Those who read and post messages in these forums represent a wide range of perspectives. If discussion of this nature is to succeed, proper respect and courtesy to other forum members is essential. Therefore, ad hominem statements are not permitted here under any circumstances. (An ad hominem statement is one which criticizes or insults a person and not the idea that he/she has expressed, or which attempts to infer the validity or lack thereof of an argument from some personal characteristic of the individual who expresses it.).

While debate, including vigorous disagreement, is allowed here and indeed encouraged, attacks upon the character, intelligence, motivations, commitment or level of Jewish observance of those participating are not acceptable and will not be allowed.

The intent of this policy is not to stifle open discussion but rather to encourage it, since genuine communication requires an atmosphere of respect in which issues can be explored without fear of insults or intimidation.

We also do not post messages unless we can verify the identity of the sender. If you would like a message to appear anonymously, please send it, with a valid return e-mail address, to moderator@edah.org.

We thank everyone in advance for their cooperation and look forward to hearing from you!
