Did one of the forum get removed?

Did you ever find out how many angels could dance on the head of a pin?

imo

"Mal'ach" = Messengers = Angels and they may occupy both heaven and earth at the same time, so the number could well be infinite.

And you may be entirely correct. After reading Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, I could even be convinced that the number is 42, barring any other 'proofs'.

But that was the answer to life........ the universe.........

EVERYTHING!

And Angels are part of everything. Even the Angel of the L-rd, the only one that speaks in the first person singular as G-d does.

Gotta keep things friendly for Hamas, you know.

I make my own Hamas in my Vitamix. It starts with 2 cans of chick peas.

The one at the top of the page. Breaking News I think it was called?

Was it removed?

Great news if so; redundant and wildly misused.

Was it removed?

Yes! "Breaking News" became a dumping ground for anything and everything regardless as to whether it was true "breaking" news or not. The threads that were in that area were put in Current Events. A few that have gotten recent responses were moved to the appropriate area (media, Iran & Palestine, etc).

and some weren't.

It all depended on whether they were pro-Hamas or anti-Hamas.

This comes out perfect. Any strong blender will do.

Hummus Recipe | Vitamix

Our version of this Middle-Eastern dip contains chickpeas, garlic, and raw sesame seeds. It's traditionally served with flatbread, but crackers and tortilla chips are great, too.

But, see, it's your job to sort through those threads and move them to the appropriate forums.

What the hell do you think we are paying you for?

100% incorrect! While you are entitled to your opinion, I will state what is fact.

Why Was it removed?

To show solidarity.

Thoughts on much more stringent enforcement of the policy that Israel/Palestine threads ONLY be posted in the I/P forum?

This issue is historically so divisive that most forums have a rule that NO posts regarding this conflict can be posted anywhere but a sub-forum dedicated to the issue. Similar rules pertain to abortion on most sites, as people appear incapable of interacting in a civilized manner on that issue...

Wrong again. That area had been in the process of being removed since early summer.

 

[Ropey]

And it just happened after the Gaza cleanup thread was posted.

I know. Coincidence.

Still, this Jew thinks that cause and effect does not agree with coincidence.

Closing "Breaking News" has been in the works for some time now. That area had become a "catch all" for those starting new threads that were too lazy to put them in the proper areas. Most of the threads in it didn't belong there.

Aye, I'm not disagreeing with the view that mods didn't like it, since it was more work for them.

I'm saying that the time between that Gaza post and moving it is connected to those posting and demanding the move of the post and ending of that sub-forum.

And then the deal was done.
