There's only one rule for posts on this thread:

Whatever you post, it must - to some degree - get the wrong end of the stick with regard to the post it's replying to.

So what you're saying, basically, is it's wrong to give any degree of stick to others for what they post when you're replying to it?

You got the thin edge of the spatula there. No, no, no, the one rule is: never divulge all of the rules. There's always a hidden agenda, in every thread. Soon, it will rear its ugly head. Very soon.

The degree of stick is proportional to the speed a thread sinks to the bottom of the page, thereby diminishing its imperative; that is unless another poster replies, thereby resurrecting the degree of stick; right or wrong.

If you're going to start with the resurrecting stuff, take it to the Spirituality Forum.

Why do you think only religions that involve resurrection are genuine religions?

What is ugly? What is beautiful? Aesthetics. Take it to Culture, Spanky.

The stirring end of this stick must be handled with rubber gloves, because the business end seems to be suffering some mission-creep.
