Rest assured Brother Joseph had thousands of sexual encounters with girls as young as your 13 year old sister. History never lies. I really have no problem with Brother Joseph nailing as many women as he wanted. I just with Joseph had waited till they were 18 years old before he stole their virtue.

What is the moral purpose behind getting lots of progressives to go do stuff in Sustain'd? Do you really need to put together a Digg Army to go screw up the site for those who put it together? I don't see any purpose for it other than hostile vandalism.<BR/><BR/>Aside for the response to your direct challenge on your blog earlier on, I find little moral value in going to sites just to be the "dissonant" tone. I am guilty of doing that a couple of times, you've made a career out of it. Have you accomplish anything?<BR/><BR/>"it's another thing if enough people get together to decide they don't want a certain idea or thought being heard."<BR/><BR/>So you think Digg is immoral too? Burying a story in Digg takes it out of the front page. The site is also driven by a mass of people that share several characteristics in their views. Of course, there are is a line of articles that will hit the front page easily, while others will starve and never make it. You see that as censorship, I see it as a democratic content paradigm.<BR/><BR/>What I've learned is that if an online community doesn't fit my needs or is not a good match, I simply move on. I don't see a moral need to forcefully reshape that community to fit my views (and those of my Digg Army). But that's just me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
