» siminspain - Topic control

You may notice that my articles have been deleted from suite. I received an email from the editor-in-chief saying that she had deleted my Bible articles because:

while I think we can grant some leniency for Mind & Soul topics that
declare their interest or "bias" in the title and assume they are
speaking to people who share these views, I'd like to avoid
sermonizing instead of keeping readers abreast of the issues related
to the faith and the institutions that embody that faith. Biblical
interpretation is a thorny area and best left for the church
sanctuary and off the site.

If my articles were sermonizing it makes it very difficult for any contributing writers to write here. My articles in other sections are fine by the way,so I'm not "sacked"!

I will be posting more articles here, just trying to avoid preachiness - we'll see how long they stay here.
The Bible is so important to me that sometimes I get enthusiastic when I write about it - that obviously has no place here - we are just looking for information.

This may sound paranoid but I also wonder whether the same criteria apply to other sections of Mind & Soul - I'll be checking!
