The CROSSFIRE echo is meant for the discussion of political, social and everyday concerns that affect society at large.
Damn! And I was only discussing important things that affected ME, the only IMPORTANT one...
Lesee, what else did I get wrong...
The topic matter of this echo is not one to be taken lightly
(Oh, oh, I'm starting to chuckle)
People whom discuss
the topic matter can be laid back...
To the point of taking the echo topic lightly? What IS the 'topic' BTW?
If your intention is to **only** discuss religion be it for or against
then you might want to seek out another avenue, such as HOLYSMOKE or EDGE_ONLINE.
HOLYSMOKE sure. EDGE_ONLINE is NOT amiable to legitimate discussion...
IMO being for or against religion is like being for or against chemistry. I think that being against chemistry would require a large bag of alchemical earth-air-fire-water proof...:-)
A Discussion of religion becomes theologic which, evidently, interests few.
[Names]
Aliases/assumed names, handles are forbidden.
Damn. I guess I'll just have to revert to my old Sri Mahatma Sat Chit
Ananda ji...
For purposes of this echo, the first and last name as presented in the message headers are the acceptable names to refer to others.
Lessee, in my case that would be...uh...Sat Ananda. (I think)
...one can find content anywhere on the
Internet to support their own point, position or idealogy.
Yes! A wonderful, important thing to keep in mind.
No persons prose or point of view is so golden as to require
100% attention.
Whew. So my poetry escapes that harsh judgment! :-)
No one is "running away" if they choose to not address
everything you say.
The hell they arn't. Cowards, every one. Every-single-one.

Oh, please. Make a rule against the world "slime" :-)

This would be both:
I am not only clever beyond most people's belief, I am charming,
intelligent, studious, well-read and open to obscene invitations from
wealthy matrons...
Just Phone 555-679-4356
...you will be held to
the standards you demand in your echo.
And not this one?
Now MY echo forbids swearing, God damn it, and I ...
Oh, oh. This means you can now properly ban me.
The rule of thumb here is to
follow this echoes rules and worry about your own echo within your own echo.
A little contradictory, but we know what yer talkin' 'bout --
