Would any of our Sophisticated Theologians here at DU care to comment on this?

REASON FOR ALERT:
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate. (See <a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus#communitystandards" target="_blank">Community Standards</a>.)
ALERTER'S COMMENTS:
This is baiting and trolling, especially with the "TM" in the title.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon May 6, 2013, 03:35 PM, and the Jury voted 2-4 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Baiting and trolling? For what... a discussion? Please alerter, get a life!
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No, it isn't. Don't you have anything better to do than trying to shut down a thread you don't like?
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: I think it's a crappy in-your-face post, but I don't see it as a CS violation. The alerter can trash the thread or post their opinion.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT and said: I agree with the alerter - it is baiting and trolling. Could be an interesting dialogue if the OP wasn't a smug asshole.
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
Had the alerter even bothered to read the article, they would have seen that the "TM" was part of the article.
And juror #6 shows why the jury system is flawed. Jurors are supposed to make a ruling on the POST, not the smug asshole that posted it. I guess it takes one to know one.

I'm not a Calvinist and don't understand their thinking, so I can't comment

Do you think it's because they are illegally using the trademark Serious Theologian?
