This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

It's all in the post above.  Fomalhaut is prematurely red because its 
inhabitants, like those of Urth, were Bad somehow, and provoked the 
Hieros into putting a black hole into the center of *their* sun too.

The bestowing of the black hole is in response to the systems' 
inhabitants' spiritual deficiencies.

Hey, I don't believe it either, but it's a consistent and 
not-difficult-to-follow theory, and textually-supported to the degree 
that we know Fomalhaut is inhabited and we know that some inhabited 
systems get black holes given to them for being Bad.
