I'm not sure if this is the place for this question. I have been uploading messages to Faithlife for some time now. I have an odd request: I want a place where our messages and teachings can be downloaded, but I do not want them available to the general public. I would like to use Faithlife as a private server, if that is possible.

Because of the rise of hate-speech laws in Canada, things are said in the messages that could cause us legal problems. We are not afraid of these things, but we want to control the flow of information and withhold it from those seeking to harm us because of whatever imagined offence they might find.

We have been meeting illegally for months, and do not wish to add this to our problems.

Thanks in advance,

Scott

Yes, Faithlife.com allows one to control membership and thus visibility.

So you want Faithlife to assume the legal liability? That sounds pretty shady to me. I didn't realize that it might be necessary for Faithlife to have guidelines to prevent their servers from being used to spew illegal content. It sounds as if they may be in the same quantry as Facebook and Twitter although on a much smaller and more contained scale.

Perhaps you misunderstood me, or I was not clear. I am trying to avoid human rights lawsuits because I might preach on an unpopular subject. Today I preached on the the fall of Babylon but alluded to Rev. 18 and Romans 1.

Under some hate speech laws in Canada preaching Biblical ethics is hate.

I don't spew.

I'm not sure about the Proclaim aspect of things, but if you use a Faithlife group for your church, the access - and even visibility - of that group is fully configurable for you, so it will be your private server for the Logos documents and other files you upload there. You can control who becomes a member or follower of that group and what they can see and do (e.g. upload own documents or not) within the group.

I was taking the Canadian hate speech laws to be similar to what is described here.Legal Restriction on Hate Speech in Canada | Centre for Free Expression (ryerson.ca)

I was taking this to mean breaking said law intentionally which puts both you and Faithlife in legal jeopardy. I do not believe that your belief that it is Biblical would be considered a mitigating factor for either you or Faithlife.

Sorry, that is the way I am accustomed to refering to the use of problematic language for a certain child of mine who spends lots of time in Facebook jail ... and no, I don't disclose the second account she has to refer employers to.
