Great idea as long as we hold to facts and not opinion or theological philosophy. I am all for it. Oh, and one more thing, if somebody does fudge on known facts in an article, give em the Dan Rather treatment.

This really is just for news articles that would be breaking news worthy. Not for religion, history, UFOs, philosophy, pets, midgets, ponies, or jokes.

As for getting the Dan Rather treatment, every person here should know the kind of scrutiny they can come to expect and I suspect all articles here will be vetted by members as much as any other source should be.

Well-researched, well-written FReeper Opinion pieces are fine in this category as well as exclusive stories or breaking news stories written by FReepers posted in their entirety. No blog excerpting or pimping please.

I think quality editorials have a place, like an old paper newspaper. Not let it dominate, but there's a place.

I do agree about anything theological, with perhaps the exception of what Barack tried to do to the Catholics to create an election issue. But that's not theology, that's politics.
