Note to Larry

You are not banned. You can post anytime you wish, but the only comments I will publish are those that deal with the ideas I raise and not with me, my spelling, my grammar or what's "wrong" with me. If you can abide by that you can post.

as for the previous post that I eliminated. I apologize to the readership because I said I wasn't going to allow the negative to take over here.

I had to re do this post. These comments were left on the original version:

If this was the person who answered your last blog with "your ideas are retarded; please end your life". . .

Well.

If that was a joke it was in terribly poor taste. If he was serious, he deserves no hearing. You gave him more than he deserved.

But I would say that he is just one atheist among many-- representative of an obnoxious group, but by no means representative of all.

not the same guy. But I'm totally sick of being ridiculed for my spelling. There is nothing wrong with my grammar or my writing. But I am sick of being ridiculed and they do it just because they have nothing to say. They can't out argue me, the can't deal with the ideas, so they just go into a frenzy anything I say something good.

Joe, I wince at posts with a lot of spelling errors, but I also know that dyslexia makes it nearly impossible to spell correctly 100% of the time. I'm glad you deleted that other post and have unbanned Larry Niven.

I just noticed that the url to this post is still "stupid-people-happen.html" lol

I don't know how to change the url to it. I might figure it out where is it?

when I get angry and frustrated I type faster, and that makes me make more mistakes. So in ridiculing me and harping on the spelling the antagonists are actually forcing me to create more mistakes.

In order to change it you would actually have to completely delete the post, and then create a new one, instead of just changing the title and the content.

The first comment that begins "well" is by Kristen.

Cool! You got rid of that legacy of nastiness, the old url. ;)

By the way, my last article, I Never Wanted To Be An Atheist got published at d-c:

There are some nice comments.
