No one will fault you for not responding to every comment or question. But everyone will notice if you fail to satisfactorily address the broad thrust of the key comments and questions that has been repeatedly raised, and go merrily on preaching as if vehemence and repetition can in anyway whatsoever make up for lack of acceptable basis of the sermon.

Don't flatter yourself. You are not the only one or the first one to raise each of the points you've raised. Since in raising them again you've not addressed any of the objections to them that caused them to fall flat the first time, nor show evidence of having even researched what those objections were, you add no value whatsoever to either the board, or the points you tried to resurrect.

By waiting until the ban expires.

Preaching is what got you banned. Preaching on eggshells won't help. You need to stop preaching and defend your arguments using methods commonly acceptable to both sides. If you can't defend your arguments with arguments with methods acceptable to us, you are wasting our time and yours.
People are convinced by arguments acceptable to them, not by those that are only acceptable to you.
