The "Posts of the Month" forum index page.
These topics listed at the above page are still available for additions.----- Now for March, 2005 (as per previous months):
quote: A link to the message, and perhap a SHORT comment would also be nice. But, this is NOT a place to debate the referenced topic - so be nice. I think that a fairly liberal use of this topic would be a good thing for indexing some nice messages that are otherwise doomed to be lost in the clutter. So, if you encounter a message that seems to say something of special substance, please give it a plug/reference in this topic. New month, same old message and routine,Adminnemooseus

Name: Holmes
Forum: Coffee House Thread: Exploitation Different? Post: 2 & 5 Once again, Holmes provides eloquent and stiring defence of the importance of freedom (and, in particular, sexual freedom) and the double standards that we bring to it and our impressions of it in other countries. Holmes On Sex - it should be a book.

Thread: Mike’s Ego Trip Post: #5 Well, I was going to nominate myself, but well you knowactually I thought Percy did a darn good job at describing why it is that very few if any creationists are nominated for POTW. "He hoped and prayed that there wasn't an afterlife. Then he realized there was a contradiction involved here and merely hoped that there wasn't an afterlife." ~ Douglas Adams I wish more people would shave with Occam's Razor. Orson Scott Card

Since you made your reply to my message 1, I'll return the favor.
Not at all fatal flaws, but I do note that all March POTM's so far were for February messages. Ideally they should have gone into the February 2005 topic. But good enough - at least messages are getting nominated. One touch that I like doing (in the non-admin mode) is to get the nominees name and some info about the message theme (ie topic name) into the POTM message subtitle. Then this info is available in the various message indexes. Please, no replies to this message.

Not to take away from Bill's efforts, but I think we are getting into deja vu territory here. Bill's dropped this (more or less) same bomb before (and got at least one earlier POTM for it also). He has several simular messages upthread, in the same topic.
But perhaps I'm violating the intent of this forum, by bringing this up. I guess I'll call it "director priviledge". Minnemooseus/Adminnemooseus - A mixed mode moose message (mmmm).

Name: Jar
Thread: Atheist Frendly Q&A Message #9 Whilst there is nothing new to me here, it is nice to see a theist surmise their position in such a way that an atheist, like me, can only respect. Indeed, Jar is wise; the lack of Gnosticism is ironically (read the rest of the thread) refreshing! edit: can someone fix the link? I'm too drunk to try myself!

Message #9 I fixed the link to message 9, and then in testing the fix discovered message 9 is not from Jar. So I discarded the fix. You need to get back there, and determine which message you were citing. Jar has several at the topic. Adminnemooseus

Forum: Intelligent Design Thread: Does complexity require intelligent design? Post #: 15 The simplest arrangement is always the best. Complex systems for simple tasks are frowned upon, and often labelled ad hoc. However, ad hoc systems are EXACTLY what a process such as evolution would create. A fine 3 sentence argument against ID. Moose ps: As always, remember the POTM forum is not the place to debate the topic. Go to the topic itself. This message has been edited by minnemooseus, 03-14-2005 01:49 PM
