I guess I shouldn't be surprised that you just jumped on me and didn't actually read anything I wrote. It's sad, really, and precisely what Mr. Postelnik is hoping to capitalize on. NO ONE is seeking to censor Mr. Postelnik. On the contrary, please, read his work. If you don't want to, perhaps read what other christians have to say about it on christianforums.com. Mr. Postelnik's claims of harassment are bogus. He's just saying that to garner sympathy.

The impetus for me replying here is you're deliberately misleading people, and to not address that would be wrong, Mr. Postelnik. How that affects a Google search is irrelevant. If you caught wind of someone spreading lies and misinformation on the internet, wouldn't it be your duty to confront such behavior?

If anyone is calling Mr. Postelnik to harass him or trying to do to his wikipedia page what he himself did to someone else's wikipedia page, that's wrong and I hope that doesn't continue, but I'm not even convinced either is happening or has happened. Regardless, such behavior is wrong.

Now I know how much everyone here would like to believe Mr. Postelnik and his allegations. Certainly if you agree with his opinions and don't care for the type of people he's vilifying, you're going to be inclined to just side with him and take his word, and that's precisely what he's counting on. All I can say is read everything for yourself first before deciding. What's going on is very simple. Mr. Postelnik simply can't stand that people are pointing out the errors in his article and rather than either trying to defend his article or try to drum up support for his article, he's expending considerable time and effort at places like this and releasing press releases (written by himself interviewing himself) about being "harassed" and "stalked".

I may not agree with most everyone's opinions around here, but I wouldn't assert you're fools. Ask yourself why he's not defending his article or any points in the article. Ask yourself why someone would try so hard to vilify his detractors rather than stand up to and challenge the points they raise. Ask yourself why someone would threaten legal action against a detractor if that detractor refused to delete a published objection to his work. Ask yourself what these "malicious" comments are that I've left or what "false accusations" I've made and finally, ask yourself why I, someone who Mr. Postelnik claims is lying, would actually encourage you to read his article to see for yourself all the errors in his logic, assertions without evidence and clear ignorance of even the basic concepts of which he argues. No one who truly respects free speech would want to censor Mr. Postelnik's work simply because we don't like it or find it riddled with errors, but likewise, if you truly due respect free speech, you must also respect and not try to censor public objections to that work. Someone needs to instruct Mr. Postelnik on how free speech works, and of course how America works.

"Free speech is intended to protect the controversial and even outrageous word; and not just comforting platitudes too mundane to need protection." - Colin Powell

Mr. Postelnik, your article exhibited a gross ignorance of logical argumentation exceeded only by your gross ignorance of the subject matter you discussed, Mr. Postelnik. If people respond negatively to such a an article as that, you shouldn’t be surprised.

To everyone else here, your replies of encouragement and support speak well of you all, but sadly Mr. Postelnik is taking advantage of your kindness. His claims of harassment are unfounded whereas he’s attacked other’s wikipedia pages with libelous claims (his IP was logged doing this), spread a press release about this so-called “attack” he’s suffering, and has threatened legal action all because he wrote a really poor article riddled with errors and is upset anyone would actually point those errors out.
