why do torah related posts get hidden or removed and censored????

I recently posted a link to "you tube" about Isaiah v 53,I felt i showed a valid response to the xtain exposition of that verse,I thought it educational and would be of great benefit to see such a verse in its context rather than the evangelical translation of a hebrew verse.However,less than 1 minute of its posting LISA moves it to the mod section thus denying jews and righteous gentiles an introduction to scripture they normally wouldnt see.I am shocked at the speed of the removal of the post,also it is not for one person to determine what is seen moreover the censorship of a jewish prophet,lest I remind you LISA....HASHEM PUT THE WORDS IN THEIR MOUTHS.I expect a valid response and not one of personal opinion,and are you christian?

Shalom Decimos, I believe there is a Halachic problem with postings of this sort for the "teaching" of non-Jews. If it were given specifically to Jews there would be no problem. Perhaps it might be seen as Proselytizing which is a no-no for Jews. Debate is one thing but teaching is something else...
I don't know but this is my guess...

its neither both,its a pictorial representation of the words of a prophet nothing more.teaching torah is one thing making people aware of the words of the prophets are another,otherwise king soloman was wrong when he made jerusalem a house for all nation to pray.
King Solomon, who built the first Temple, asked in his dedication prayer, "And may You listen to the prayer of your servant and your people Israel who pray toward this place" (I Kings 8:30), and regarding Hasidic Gentiles he asked G-d, "And also, regarding the foreigner who is not of your people Israel, and who comes from a far-off land because of Your name... and he comes to pray toward this house:
"Listen in the heavens, your dwelling place, and respond to everything the foreigner calls to You for, so that all the peoples of the earth will know Your name and fear You, like your people Israel" (I Kings 8:41-43). b-h.

Maybe if you post it directly in this Torah section there will be less scrutiny of it and more freedom. The gentiles can choose to tune in here if they like, if they want to see the Jewish point of view, but it is somewhat different than the general forum as a separate section here labelled "Torah" .... so it's less trying to push an interpretation on those people with other religions and more voluntary if they want to look at this kind of stuff they know where to find it... That's my best guess.
Oh, I see now that it was posted here in this section. I don't know, you will have to ask the mods why ...

Second most important reason I am here is to see the Jewish perspective. Although I am a solid Christian, I greatly respect Judaism and interested in everything relative. Can't speak for the other Christians members but this type of article does not offend me. If fact I love to read Muman's postings. He is a smart man.
