Dear Free Republic Friends,
My old friend and brother-in-arms BADJOE has promised to warm the cockles of our hearts by publishing an expose (the truth about JimRob and Free Republic according to Joe) on the 18th of this month, which represents the one year anniversary of the date he last posted to FreeRepublic.com and started up with LibertyPost.org.
So, as I believe that only the truth can set you free, and based upon the stratergery of pre-emptive strike, I have a confession to make (before BADJOE makes it public):
I have poisoned the well.
By my sly innuendos behind the scenes.
By my intellectual ineptitude.
By not trusting those that brung me to the dance to bring me home.
By my biting every hand that fed me.
By my arrogance that causes me to think I did it all by myself.
By my stubborness not because of principle, but because of my lack of ability to see what is transpiring.
Evidenced by:
One would think that with half again as many Freepers. with a recovering economy, It would take a great deal less time to raise the necessary funds.
By this time in the June 2002 effort with a goal of $70,000 we had raised $73,000. Not because of who did the fundraising, but because the sense of purpose, of family, of comaraderie, was still present.
BADJOE rang the warning bell, but none heard.
Conclusion:
It is a sad day.
For what was once a great hope, a means of bringing together those who are willing to pay dearly in blood, sweat, and money to save this country, we all love, has been reduced to an asterisk.
So sayeth BADJOE as he promises to publish all this and much more on the 18th. He's been feverishly working on this "project" for one full year. In addition to the "truth about JimRob" BADJOE intends to further betray our trust placed in him by revealing the names of our moderators. And who knows what else?
I can hardly wait.
Is it the 18th yet? Tick, tock.
This is not a free speech issue. He has no more right to do that than he has the right to post your credit card information or social security number.
If Liberty Post has any class - or any sense, theyll make it clear to BADJOE now that revealing proprietary information about Free Republic will get him the boot there too.
(They had better hope he hasnt won access to their information as well.)
No it is not. Most of the problem evos are self-proclaimed atheists. Don't see any atheists in the anti-evolution side either. To Christians God is the creator of all things including life and man. Evolutionists deny that so any Christian who sides with Darwinian evolution is denying the prime tenets of his faith.
LOL I used to post at Nascar.com around '97 when they had the big chatroom. They even had to shut it down because of the nastiness. Goes with the territory I guess.
The crevo threads scare the living bejeebers out of me.
I haven't read any of those threads in a long time. I've always liked to discuss the heritage and migration aspect of Christianity instead of whether evolution exists. Whether evolution helped bring us here, or we were created in one day 6000 years doesn't take away from the fact that both would be miracles. The universe is a miracle. Something created an imbalance to spark the big bang.
Oedipus, now that was a close family.
He's gone on to fight on "other fields of battle" as he put it.
Yeah. I got flamed out of that place for suggesting that NASCAR drivers turn RIGHT every once in a while ;)
As for my thoughts on creation and God, I dispute that anyone, even myself, even has enough gray matter to truly understand ALL of God's handiwork and mysteries. The best I can do is enjoy it.
Common sense and the Scriptures tell you to move to a different place here on FR, where your words may be better understood and help turn people to The Lord. It's not gonna happen here on this vanity thread or on the "science" threads. That's OK...
"The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them..."
1 CORINTHIANS 2:14
Your messages are no longer effective. Martyrdom is not a Christian act...so, don't 'die' here in vain.
And, besides, this house belongs to JimRob and he can run this however he wants to.
Free Republic is an online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism on the web. We're working to roll back decades of governmental largesse, to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America. And we always have fun doing it. Hoo-yah!
Oh God, how the great one has fallen!
ROTFL! (never saw anything like this one!!!! :-)
I disagree with you. You're never going to convince me and I'm never going to convince you.
Most Christians I know are believers in evolution to some extend.
I went to parrochial school, and evolution was taught to us as compatible with our biblical beliefs.
At any rate, the important part of my post is this:
The great chasm is between nasty and angry posters on one side and polite and forgiving posters on the other side.
Never, ever.
My philosophy too, except when some jerk really ticks me off.
;-)
Subject: ATTN: Jim Robinson Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2003 20:4:31 -0600 From: "webmaster" webmaster@designeduniverse.com To: "webmaster@freerepublic.com" webmaster@freerepublic.com Hello, webmaster, Mr. Robinson, Re: the post below. I have seen my name and person defamed on your website for the last time. From the time that I was banned through the false charges of Alamo Girl concerning banning until today, a certain group of posters has continued to smear and lie concerning me, my character and my actions. I would be more than ecstatic, at this point, to see this entire defamation campaign exposed before a jury. You have not been told the truth by Alamo Girl or others concerning myself. I request that you remove the proceeding defaming post from your website as well as the poster who maligned my name. I furthermore request that the group of evolutionists who have been most abusive concerning myself and other creationists (you know who they are) to be warned to cease and desist. You have a good 2 months of damning evidence against you on your webiste. Is it really worth it to continue this nonsense? I'm very serious about this. Your call brother. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/999117/posts?page=2337#2337 To: Stultis; PatrickHenry; VadeRetro; Piltdown_Woman; Right Wing Professor I've been lurking this thread and skimming through it this morning... A few things jump out at me: 1) The incessant whining of DittoJed2 and, of course, LBB (That's Gore3000, aka "Little Boy Blue" for you non-CREVO thread readers. He always posts in blue... kinda like that annoying kid back in 7th grade with all the bodily function noises all the time, just to get attention. Sure, he got the attention, but he never made an intelligent sound.) 2) they both implore us to visit their little site. Here, I'll do it again: everyone go to DesignedUniverse.com. Currently, there are about 5 or 6 "members" there, at least 3 of which are recently banned (and quite angry) FReepers. The only catch is, to read their venom, one has to register. Fair enough... until you realize you have to give the site owner way too much personal information. Which, most times, would be fine as well. 3) HOWEVER, the site owner is non other than banned FReeper ALS. Possibly the scariest poster I've ever been witness too. Alamo Girl has accused him of "cyber stalking." I am fully aware of another female FReeper who has a similar (and even scarier) story about the man. I don't know many details, but I certainly believe both women, as I have never had reason not too. So, ALS has this little thing going over there at his site, with 2 other bannees (goodseedhomeschool and jessesherun) and a few of our more colorful creationists (gore3000 et al) and they want US to visit, give names, residencies, IP's, addresses, god knows what else, you sure as hell know he logs each and every IP that visits his site (and notice that gore's recently posted links all take you there) and lord knows what he does with the info he collects. And no, this isn't tin foil material, I am actually serious, despite my screenname. 4) Spurious accusations? Hollow accusations? perhaps... but I doubt it. Those of us who have been witness to the coordinated blitzkreig of the Des.Uni crowd know better. Bannees returning with false aliases, obvious flame-baiting with new screen names, abuse of the abuse button, pulled threads, endless nazi claims, on and on and on. For a short while, it kind of worked (Late July/early August) as we simply became tired of the crap and some of us took a break. One of "us" couldn't control himself and got banned. (Aric2000... which by the way, was justified). Thankfully, the mods caught on to the game and 3 of the worst were subsequently banned. (and one, jessesherun, got banned while posting in the religion forum, which I still find schaudenfreudian delight in). 5) Anyway, it must be said there are a few on the creationist side I take no umbrage with. Plenty, actually. Once in a while, some fall victim to the DesUni crowd which sucks. I'd just like to publicly thank whomever is/was responsible for the bannings of the previously mentioned FReepers and to say that that is a big part of the reason I've doubled my FR donation this quarter. 6) There are some rather brilliant folks over on the science threads. You ALL should visit those threads sometimes, as it's often a good diversion from day to day politics. The mysterious Ichneumon, king of the thorough and reasoned posts is always good for some learning. RadioAstronomer is a fountain of knowledge. VadeRetro, RightWingProfessor, PatrickHenry, Piltdown_Woman, Physicist... on and on. Always good stuff (whether I "get" it all the time or not.) Of course I've forgotten several other posters. 6) ok, that was a totally random post, sorry. 2,337 posted on 10/13/2003 6:26 AM PDT by whattajoke (what was in my coffee this morning?!)
