I think you should start a website if you want to put up posts like
this one. Why would I care about Kitty Hundal?
This post isn't even about religion.
I'd like you to not post stuff like this anymore. Please.

I'm going to need a second with this. My definition of love changed
while on vacation.

Feel loved and remember the next time you're tempted to hate it's just
a temptation to be independent from love.

I wasn't commenting on the number of children. You asked about STD's.

Hi atypican,
I agree with you that would be a nice feature to have. But I wonder
if the real issue is the morality and trust of the participants. For
example, even having that particular feature won't stop the
accusations from someone who wants to eristically and
opportunistically abuse it. So I consider that regardless of what

Which is not a comfort for a standard that is objectively inadequate.
And that method, process, algorithm, decision tree, or heuristic are
simply not adequate to discern what is the personal and relational
action of God's Holy Spirit.
I just consider that there is no heuristic or algorithm that is
adequate to replace what is the personal action of God's Holy Spirit;

I am persuaded to post considerably less than I have been here.
That certainly sounds familiar.
That's what I was looking for.

Please define blatant propaganda.

I would like to implement a policy where we could delete threads like
this but append a copy of what we deleted so that our group standards
can be criticized due to the ability to view what has been cut. I have
repeated this idea with no feedback. Some feedback would be nice.

I submit that the relation of love to evolution is teleological.

I think the problem for some becomes, if we are to acknowledge some
exterior standard, then whose? Which one, among the many offered? At
least, if one's standard is personal and subjective, it is one's
*own.*
I, for my part, identify as a Catholic. That means that, at the
least, I accept as true, those things the Catholic Church teaches are

Hear, here!
Michele, the ball's in your court. My vote is you should voluntarily
cut way back on all the forwards, and if you do post a forward, add a
comment that will be likely to start a good discussion! Whatd'ya
think?

I dunno. I mean, I like calling a spade a spade, you know? Which
extends to other descriptive adjectives/nouns. I wouldn't say I
regret it so much, myself. But, I know my words and actions reflect
on the group, and I would like to honor the spirit of the group.
Plus, the issue that led to me so describing her has passed, so it is

It's not that simple. I have to go to some effort. So the front page
is useless to me now?!
If you cannot be persuaded then I will put it up to a vote. I have
heard criticism that this group was based on censorship.
I really don't want to censor. If ACRD does censor, My vote is that
anything removed be appended to a page so the public can still see the
