“The facts are that many of your fellow Freepers- including Jim Robinson -actively support and admire Judge Moore's stance.”

And I am very well aware of those facts, and it is certainly their right to take an opposing view. However if Jim founds my posts overtly offensive then I would assume that he would disable my account, which he has not done and I have been on this site for a few years. He could rest assured that I would not take the time and trouble to change my settings and log in under a new screen name.

However since that has not happened I can only assume that since I tend not to attack others personally that have an opposing view, a trait which you tend not to exhibit, do not use foul language, and try to be respectful of others, he has decided not to do such. Which I did somewhat expect to happen as when I first started using this board I read several allegations by others that if you took an opposing view you got banned from this board. An allegation I have found not to be true, perhaps there were other factors that contributed to their being banned.

However, if you think that Jim is not running his board correctly, perhaps you should appeal to him directly to do something. I will ping others on my ping list that have opposing views to mine so that they may have an opportunity to join you in your appeal.

“The paucity of your opposing view has been shown time and again by your reposting of large blocks of text from atheist sites”

And how you come up with that is beyond my grasp, it must once again be an example of your over active imagination.
“in preference to addressing the points made against you.”

Like I said earlier to you, I do address those post, that bring some meaningful argument to the table, because that would not include post such as yours should not be construed as evidence of a fact since your post do not fall in that category.

Hehe. I don't have a problem with you posting. It's been fun, although it would be a lot more fun if you'd finish
your debates, rather than spamming up my comments list
with pings to new articles that say the same thing
the others did.

Why am I being pinged on all this? Thanks for your time, Xy.

Sorry to shake your narcissism Kerby, but I think that's because -until you started trolling the Moore topic- you hadn't made much of an impact here. If you're genuinely in doubt as to how your atheist, anti-Constitution views conflict with JR's opinion, might I suggest reading his tagline? Cheers, Byron

If Jim's views were law, we certainly wouldn't have so many War on (some) Drugs supporters around here, now would we? >:)

When I first posted on some of the Middle East threads, a lot of people warned me that "those" views would get one banned, and indeed a couple of Kahanists tried to make it happen. I didn't even get warned, let alone threatened or suspended. While I do suspect that those of us who hold the "unpopular" views have to watch the letter of the rules a little more, the speech around here is a lot freer than sonme might try to claim.
