You are allowed to disagree, but understand that I'm asking you to stop accusing us of censorship. No one likes to feel that they are being manipulated or badgered into doing what someone wants, simply to avoid having that person's negative label stick to them. Personally, I have had enough leaders manipulate me with "loaded lingo" and negative labels from my years in the Family to last me the rest of my life.

Perhaps you are not intending to manipulate me, but that is what it feels like. So perhaps, yes, if the only word that continually comes to your mind is "censorship," you might want to let others lead the way in discussing the need for a political board. I have read some highly-interesting and well thought out discussions on the subject by other posters. We are open to the possibility of a political board but at this point your continued name-calling and accusations are very counter-productive.
