There are a lot of different people from every walk of life participating in some way on this blog. Since things can get passionate we ask that:

1. Posts and comments be written in a spirit of tolerance and respect for other participants.

2. No mudslinging or personal attacks toward posters, commenters and the administrator. "I disagree" is fine. "I think you are totally, 100% wrong" is okay. "I think you're a stupid idiot" is not. It is also unacceptable to attack another's strength in the faith of their choice or rightness of their political beliefs. If you're smart enough to blog, you can find a different way to make your point.

3. No Ads or Plugs in posts or comments EXCEPT those specified by the blog Administrator.

4. No libel, defamation or copyright violations.

5. Please do NOT "announce" you will no longer be reading or participating on this blog. Please just leave peacefully and allow others who enjoy it to continue to do so.

6. DO NOT DELETE POSTS OR COMMENTS.

As the Administrator, I reserve the right to delete posts or comments that do not abide by the rules.
