Today I am a real blog...


I have a troll! I'm so excited. Nine months without a troll? I was starting to get disappointed. But no! Anonymous (which isn't a very good name for a troll, by the way) has commented on a few posts to tell me I'm a hedonist and question my definition of sin. I'm all giddy.

(Well, he/she also wanted to introduce me to the harsh reality of life that fat people suck and are lazy, but you know. Also, that my theology is wrong and I'm going to Hell. Isn't it fun?)

So -- a few groundrules. Disagreement is welcomed, but insults are not. You don't agree with me or my commenters? Okay! I don't mind and I'm pretty sure they don't either, so long as you're not stupid about it. You want to talk about religion? Okay! I can do that, but don't expect to convert anyone. I certainly don't expect to convert anyone to my beliefs. I do, however, expect everyone to respect other people's beliefs. Which means, as soon as you start going on about any of us going to Hell, burning forever or anything like that, I'm killing your comments. Why? Because it's my blog and I set the rules.

This blog isn't a place for flame wars. Disagreement, respectful argument? Fine. This doesn't have to be an echo chamber. But you should remember that I'm the one who makes the final decision on what gets put up and what doesn't -- if it offends me, too bad.

Also -- please leave a name on your comments, will ya? It's a mark of cowardice not to own your own words and why would anyone take you seriously if you're not even willing to sign a name?
