Moderator "Hidden in Him" banned me for 3 months for challenging his doctrinal views in a private message. Then when I complained and asked to his supervisor, he banned me again. What follows is our "private conversation"

It will be three months this time, six months the next time, and a permanent ban after that. We need members who can be spiritual adults here, Alfred, and think like spiritual adults. That's not what you're doing.

Can I appeal your "ruling" to someone higher. I think banning me for "private comments" to you was a violation of "privacy" and normal rules for moderators. Perhaps get the "owners" point of view on this?
Hidden In Him said:
I suggest you not worry about appeals and just try to apply yourself to the rules. It’s not that hard, and we are not asking anything unreasonable.
Respect the community and how it is run and it will respect you back, Disrespect it and your chances wil eventually run out.
I believe you seriously abused your authority, banning me for a private challenge, for a very long period. And now threaten even worse treatment.
Alfred Persson said:
I want your "supervisor" to consider our conversation, and your outrageous abuse of authority.
I insist.
END
When I tried to log on, I was notified I was banned. Not told for how long, likely permanently.
Claimed loss: Loss of use
Desired outcome: Moderator disciplined or fired and ban lifted with public apology.
