I was thinking we could maintain a "twitlist" like alt.atheism. I didn't
bring this up before because of the hostile nature of this group, everyone
would eventually be twitlisted. The christian trolls would twitlist all
the non-christians and then vice-versa. However, Jerkel certainly needs
some recognition so we could try this...
To be twitlisted, one must have five votes from people who may not be
regulars, but we've at least "seen around" and COULD be regulars. Jerkel
would get a vote because of, um, his recent "influence".
HOWEVER, there must be AT LEAST two votes from christians AND two votes
from non-christians. A true twit will be recognized by his or her own side
and so there will be no biases.
SO...let's start it up...I vote one for Jerkel, one for Neil. Believe it
or not, I'm going to be nice enough to leave Saga off the list (although
I'm sure he'll mention my name) because he makes an attempt to reason
(albeit with lies and sorry-assed jokes).
Please participate, everyone. I'll take the votes off list, and keep them
confidential, but they'll also be accepted on list (especially since I can
expect a number of nominations for myself) with justification arguments if
desired. If you're regular enough to be counted, I won't need to ask if
you are xtian or non. I'll keep track of them anyway, since you'll still
have posts to back you up if you think "I cheated". Anyway, let's go! :)

Hmmm. I could add it to the FAQ. OK. Thanks Tim for the idea.

This should be interesting. ;)
Do you mean my twitlist, an unbiased democracy of the group, or yours,
which will obviously be a biased monarchy?
Anyway, I'm going to proceed to ignore this and get back to encouraging
you folkses to VOTE. Matt? Jerkel?

Oh, please, please do! Promises, promises! :-)
The FAQ list might best be called a FOOL list.

Don't know what you mean Tim, but I see that you continue to think
that democracy is a/one source of your authority. But all too often
it is just pooled foolishness, as we've seen here with you et al.
>Anyway, I'm going to proceed to ignore this and get back to encouraging

Vote Tim #1

Uhm...no, my democracy means democracy...I'm not getting more of a vote
than anyone else. Are you trying to maintain your own list, or are you
talking about mine? That was my obvious question, and one you neglected to
answer.
:>Anyway, I'm going to proceed to ignore this and get back to encouraging

: Vote Tim #1
Ah, so it is a vote...is it the twitlist I'm keeping track of/maintaining?
Can I assume this is a vote for me?

You're avoiding the issue Tim - again!
It must be because you don't have a valid answer and know you're
wrong.
Is your authority merely the (majority) opinions of people?
I'm not sure whether this was a compliment or a cheap shot... ;D

I'm not sure if I feel like voting on something like this or not, I'll
think about it..
Although, I'm not sure if I _want_ to give twits anymore attention then
they already seem to be..

Boy! If we know who this Jerkel was it would be interesting wouldn't
it?!!!
Who's the 'christian'?
I'm not participating is such a silly list designed to vilify and
silence discussion. It only draws attention to people.
In fact, I've always though it silly that people who detest/hate
others (eg politicians) will go around with the object of their hate's
name on their car, in the form a bumper sticker, etc.

On the off chance that you really don't know, "Jerkel" is a take off of
your last name. Congrats, you've been given a nickname. ;)

Meaning you can vote for more than one person, correct Tim?

Huh, yet you were going to include it in your FAQ..

Fair enough.

Who's is it?

So it _will_ have a twitlist?
>Yes. Are you an agnostic? I always thought you to be christian.
ok, look at it this way. To the atheists and agnostics I will act and
respond to them in a more christian manner, to the christians I will
probably respond more like an atheist or agnostic. I dont think I can
classify myself yet
>Ah. Thank you for your input. You can have more than one vote, BTW.
How generous, I'll make more judgements later

I've done the same myself in the past. It's an interesting way to poke at
your own beliefs, and certainly a good way to get some perspective on
things. Good luck to you!
>Huh, yet you were going to include it in your FAQ..
Given I'm not God, I'm allowed to change my mind. :-)
It's not my FAQ!
I'm told it may have a description of fools! :-)

Heh. He's silencing my list. :D Honestly, his jabs at what "censorship"

Yes, you can vote for as many people as you wish. I'm waiting for Jerkel
to go ahead and nominate everybody. Like it would matter. ;D

Tim, You really are a very silly person. No where here in this
discussion was censorhip mentioned.
It appears that you are the one who really likes to create something
out of nothing.
If all your gods are created that way, I'm not surprised you'd think
other people do the same, but they don't and there is a REAL and TRUE
GOD and He knows your name Tim, and what's more He loves you!
Thats it, I thought so. You're not a christian you're a politician.
That explains your inability to answer a simple question.
