AdminNem responds to me:

AdminPD doesn't have to keep out of anything, ever, here at EvC.
Huh? She asked a question as to what I think she should have done. I gave her an answer. Now you're upset that I answered her? The fact that you don't like the answer is insufficient.
Question: Is it possible for an administrator to overreach?
Yes or no.
If so, then yes, there will be times when an administrator should keep his or her nose out of it.

Not only is she is a moderator, but this is a public forum.
Do you see me stopping her from posting? Saying she should go quietly into that good night and never darken our door again? I simply pointed out that she barged in, decided to throw her weight around, and that it was inappropriate for her to do so: She should have stayed out of it unless she had something constructive to add.
Is it impossible for an administrator to make an error?
Yes or no.
Yes, since the administrators are in control of the board, a case could be made that they never make mistakes since they get to make the rules. But let's not be disingenuous, shall we? If a set of guidelines has been constructed and the administrator violates them, is it not accurate to say that said moderator should have stayed out of it?
[Violation of forum guideline #10 deleted for space.]

So rather than tacitly asserting that everyone else is either crazy or unduly persecuting you
Huh? Where have I said so regarding this? I simply pointed out that AdminPD was apparently ignorant of what the author of the topic declared: The question of obedience and free will is directly related to the question of omnipotence and thus, on topic. Therefore, the conversation between pbee and myself regarding whether or not obedience requires knowledge of good and evil is directly on topic, despite what AdminPD might claim.
If the originator of the topic isn't a good place to go to regarding what the topic is, where else are we to go?
Please show me where in Message 97 or 69 where I even hinted at declaring someone "crazy" or that I (or anybody else for that matter) was being "persecuted."
I remind you, AdminPD was the one who brought up "dinging" people. She asked me what I thought she should have done. I took that question seriously and gave her an honest answer.
Why does that so upset you?

as opposed to asking for some kind of special dispensation.
Where did I ask for anything? Be specific.
AdminPD asked a question. I answered her.
You seem to be upset that I took her question seriously and answered it with integrity rather than simply groveled at her feet, begging her mercy.

Please find a more constructive way to voice your concerns.
Strange. That's my advice to you.
