No, because I can't force what words you use, all I can do is say what words I think would be better and why, and you can agree or disagree. That's what I did, that's not censorship.
If I point at my bike and say "dishwasher", you telling me no isn't censorship, it's an attempt to improve communication.

No, and I don't think anyone accused you of that, again here's the exchange:
"There is no good deed a "true Christian" can do that anyone else could not do." - troutman
"that's not true, because if you are doing certain deeds then you are acting in a Christian manner." - you
That, restated, seems to say certain deeds are Christian only. That's what I, and since I wasn't alone it wasn't unreasonable, was interpreting. It seems that that wasn't your intent, but we can't discern intent, only interpret what's written. But that clears it up so that's good.

Fair enough, then you should see how when you said there were good deeds that someone who wasn't a true Christian were incapable of could have been confusing to us.

I wasn't being confrontational (which is opposing for the sake of opposing), I was actually disagreeing with what you were saying. It seems we don't disagree, but again I can only respond to what's written.
