The main purpose of this blog is for me to have a place to talk to myself. Because I spend so much time away from home working, I decided to create a site where I could share my thoughts and share all of the original source information I gather in my research. What I did not intend was to create a place where anonymous people could attack me, or call people names. I didn't think anyone was paying attention until last night when I noticed, for the first time, that some were reading my posts and commenting. Unfortunately, most of the posts were unacceptable. I know the difference. In another forum, I debate with "conservatives" all day long without this happening. We never agree with each other, but we respect each other. Maybe the difference is that we know each other. It is sad to see that so many people say so many hateful things under the cover of anonymity. On this site, there is a bit of a solution. Since I am the Administrator, I can remove posts that violate the rules, and I have done so. Just to be clear the rules are:
1. No name-calling
2. No personal attacks
3. Stay on topic
Please continue to read my posts, and comment if you like, but with respect, or the comment will be removed. Have a good day!

Censorship? Do you burn books too?
ReplyDeleteNo apologies. If you want to anonymously call someone names or attack someone, create your own blog or do it somewhere else. The days of tolerance for intolerance are over, at least here. Debating the issues is not a blank check to engage in hate speech. Implying that I burn books is immature and hyperbolic, a poor substitute for actual discussion.
