Reply to Warning about Sir Peter in Blogging JoeUser Forums

How funny that some of the same people who advocate for a blog-censor-God - in Brad - now want free speech, arguing that one can control thier own site quite well. You are now responsible for every blog and slight that these thin-skinned, non-members want you to delete or censor Brad. Great job. Censoring or deleting SPM is not a credit to the site at all. It's like picking at a scab to say you don't like his comments and th

I would have responded but I have been locked out of my blog site for the last two days. Those who say there are limitations are missing the point. And not one person answers the question: Who has the moral right to censor on this site? I say the blogger of his/her site and not the owner, when no complaint has been made. Those of you who are new here have no context in the discussion, because you have not witness

Unusual Search Engines in Internet JoeUser Forums

I search the net constantly, in search of eclectic information. Search engines are THE tool used by all of us to get to that new information we seek. I have a list of search engines for my web site, and would like to know of the most unusual, eclectic, different, and useful search engine(s) you recommend for use. I get tired of the pop-ups and limited results

Again I ask who takes the moral right to decide what a acceptable title is? I have seen many many inventive titles used to get people to look at a article, some offensive. Brad himself admits he is about as good as it gets at inciting reads by his inventive and inciteful titling. We've all seen titles un-related to the blog, done to get a person reads. I mentioned the one he did on "The left and hatred"recently. How far are we from delet

Yeah, they got a big stick. Have the kahoonas to call it what it is if you're so powerful then. This hiding behind the supposed villany of others to censor is a sham. That's the chilling I spoke of BakerStreet. "Watch out because they might get mad... after all they have ALL power." So what? And Brad let me save you the keystrokes, "Wahkonta: If you don't like it you can leave the site." After all "I'm on thin ice here"

Kharma girl: Stardock is not a person. I could care less what the 'rules' say, in face of a moral right as I address this matter. By stating "Wherefore, therefore, heretofore, nonsense, it does not make it moral to censor under guise of a bylaw or other 'rule'. My question is to anyone as a fellow human and Citizen of America, "What gives you the right to determine who or what is hateful? " This is an old argument, with the wit

Reply to I am almost in the top 100, and Husband got a blog! in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Congratulations on your attainment. I recall when I first noticed the rankings on the side and decided to 'go for it'. I sat up all night and posted. Then I got obssessed and wanted number 50, 40, 10 (ended up as high as 3). I had to go through withdrawal and make myself get off the site after a time. Hope to see you in the top 10 soon and your blogs are worthy of such reads. Have to go now because JillUser is trying to pass me for number 5.

Reply to Some of you are on thin ice... in Blogging JoeUser Forums

I have an example of this in my blog on GCJ and SPM and Brad. I speculated on the identities but was not dis-respectful of them. I was shown to be in error. I have left it up to resolve this if it should occur again and to show how such actions can backfire. I will take it down if asked as it was a light-hearted blog, but it is its own witness against such actions and I think it should remain for them to use and respond to as they choose.

Reply to YOU MEAN I ONLY GOT 1 MEASLY NOMINATION? in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Haven't looked at it yet but wonder if there was any broadening of categories. The award idea is a very good one and the owners should take the idea and run with it. I think they can corner the award show of blogging and put our best against the best of other sites in a form of debate or style competition that would go on ad infinitum. Dues for a club and awards could be developed and national publicity and training could then ensue. It is a

I was once a Democrat, became a Reaganite in my Ayn Rand days, then went Independent after reading on the "October Surprise" and finding short-wave radio.

I just had a friend see the movie who has no religious background at all. The impression she had was that the Romans were evil and responsible for the death of Jesus. The room was silent and still at the end she reported, and the gore was so severe it is etched on her mind. A teen, who attended with her, and who also had no previous reading of the a Holy Bible, may well have had a conversion of sorts. She swore she would seriously read th

If the President states that trade with Burma is illegal, and products from that Nation are found to be sold on a site for a political Candidate, is it wrong? The checks have worked and the products have apparently been removed from the President's site. This is good and

Thank you for the replies. DoctorNick: I think the article is pointing out that there is an alternative to the 'Diebold' voting machines being used in America and passed out in Iraq also. These machines also use screens and are presently in use. The 'smudging' problem is not shown to be an issue as of now to my knowledge. The 'hacking' is a problem and the Dieblod machines deliberately are not using it. Using this system no hacking would wo

You make a good point that goes over the heads of many. I have seen one account of him actually being short and of almost hunchbacked shape. The Holy Bible only says he was of an unremarkable appearance. This is to show his influence was not due to his being a model or of'comely' look.

It isn't something to 'come up with' just factual news reporting. If you read the report it also cites other items of dubious origin.

Thank you Corio. To answer Sherye, yes, thinking differently is the key. Nathaniel Brandon once said, "Individuation and separation mark the birth of the human being." Sadly, most humans will exist an entire lifetime and never be born in this sense. Recall Rousseau saying, "Men are born free yet everywhere I see them in chains." Also, "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." This is true and it is because they lack the c
