Should I be watching what I say? Apparently everyone seems to think so, nator, which accounts for the tip-toeing around. I think I'll just consign myself to chat. “There is something which unites magic and applied science while separating both from the 'wisdom' of earlier ages. For the wise men of old the cardinal problem had been how to conform the soul to objective reality, and the solution had been knowledge, self-discipline, and virtue. For magic and applied science alike the problem is how to subdue reality to the wishes of men: the solution is a technique; and both, in the practice of this technique, are ready to do things hitherto regarded as disgusting and impious" -C.S. Lewis

EvC Forum's primary purpose is to promote constructive dialogue between the two sides in the creation/evolution controversy. Those who don't share that goal do not have the right to make things difficult for those who do.

Should I be watching what I say? I don't think anyone needs worry so long as they do the revised thing of debating the issues. Get over the bickering and get doing the EvC thing the man has designed the site for. Most agree change and improvement was needed. If we move on and get with the new program we can all make a good thing better. ![]() We all need to come to realization that this is going to be a new improved sight for all members who are willing to conform to the changes. It appears it's going to be a bonafide fair and balanced site for all willing to accept the improvements regardless of ideology. ![]() New members are going to come for the debates and hopefully find a site humming along in a manner that makes them want to come in and participate. They're already registering. Let's debate with them and amongst ourselves in a manner that will be spirited, pleasant, edifying and interesting. ![]() Edited by Buzsaw, : spelling BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW.

EvC Forum's primary purpose is to promote constructive dialogue between the two sides in the creation/evolution controversy. Those who don't share that goal do not have the right to make things difficult for those who do. percy, with all due respect, asking that moderation be fair and just is the first step in promoting constructive dialoge between the two sides of the creation/evolution controversy.

I must admit. I am worried too.
Dan gets the boot, Amen gets privileges restored. Brenna gets the boot, NJ never loses his privileges. Perhaps if brenna, Ringo, Omni, Dan, jar -- am I forgetting anyone? -- apologize to Percy, they too will have their privileges restored. After all, NJ got booted twice, apologized twice and here he is. I can only assume Amen apologized as well after his spam rant.

i am starting to suspect that percy has intentionally thinned out the "evolutionist" ranks to more balance the debate participant-wise.

Seems I picked exactly the wrong time to come ridin in on my big ol white horse to defend some of those poor little creationists.

i don't think participation here should be contingent on ideological basis, or on subjective worth/lack of redundancy of posts.

8. Avoid any form of misrepresentation.

Should I be watching what I say? quote: Personally, I don't plan on watching what I say at all. Not in this "new" way, anyhow. If Percy wants to ban me for criticizing his actions, and thus show himself to be no better than any of the Creationist board moderators, then so be it.
