    Just stopping in to see if everything i've heard is true. No worries, It's all good.

    I'm sort of new to this forum thing, I finally took a computer class, and joined the 21st century. I don't know why I put it off for so long.

    After reading a few threads here I can see that there is a nice balance of political prospective. I look forward to some friendly debate. As for myself sometimes I lean to the left, sometimes to the right, and sometimes I play the devils advocate. It really depends on the issue, However, no matter which side of an argument I find myself on I believe in personal responsibility, and the utility of the most good for the most people.

    Let the good times roll. :pray:

    Yes, I'm an American. A child of the sixties. My parents were both teachers. Their holy trinity: Education, Grammar, and Manners.

    Isn't that a question better asked in the religion section?

    I believe that humans have a soul and that it is the nature of a soul to be eternal. What phases the soul passes through in eternity I cannot possibly know. I do know that I have no recollection of being here before, but quite possibly I do not know that I have no recollection of anything. That is to say you, can't step in the same cowpie twice.

    Wow, I've got to say, I'm about to give up on this place. It's very hard to hold a chain of thought, or have a conversation with anyone with all this lag time after I post. I might as well go talk to myself, at least there is some flow to the conversation.

    I appreciate the nice welcome but, in a land of free speach, I'm somewhat insulted that my words must be cleared by the Mod Squad before they are posted. It makes me feel that either this place is full of infants that must be protected from pixels, or that this place is so censored that only thoughts that are in line with the status quo will be allowed. It is is not freedom when you live in fear of other peoples thoughts and words.

    Anarchy would be better. Good people will rally togeather in times of need to do what needs to be done.

    So let's end this censorship period now and let the forum decide if my thoughts are clean enough to be posted. If they are not I'm sure some citizen of this police state forum will be more than glad to come sniveling to the moderation team to alert y'all.

    Thank you. I see my post came up this time, but there are still posts that have not been cleared yet. Oh well, only one of them was somewhat clever.

    Now that I can have a conversation with some continuity I'll try to be here more often.

    Standard protocol is for the first 10 post (new members) to be reviewed by Moderation staff, prior to displaying. After that, they are viewable immediately.

    Regards


    ...one can easily knock out the initial 10, in the Off Topic section. ;)

    LD50 I think the precaution is to make sure nobody spams the site with "bots" or anything of that nature. I has nothing to do with free speech.
