Posting Guidelines

I reserve the right to remove content from my blog. I control the content because I want to and it is mine to control.

You are a guest, so respect your host. I will help you respect me by setting expectations.

I tolerate:

• Opposing viewpoints and analysis.
• People who show respect and kindness and toleration, especially to their opponents.
• Logic and reason.
• Conciseness and preciseness.
• Respect and civility.

I don’t tolerate:

• Vulgarity, including sacrilege.
• Rudeness of any kind.
• Logical fallacies, especially ad hominem attacks. (That’s when you say something like, “He’s wrong because he’s X.”)
• People who don’t read the posts and comments and try to comment anyway.
• People who don’t debate by addressing the fundamental weaknesses in their own arguments.
• Long posts.
• Verbose posts.
• Useless posts.
• Off-topic posts.
• Emotional posts.
