*Sigh*  Looking this up for you makes me sad, l'il Kylie.  It all reminded
me of how great, lively, and intelligent the discourse on this list
frequently was, once upon a time.  Perhaps we've all become dumber?  Or
maybe the anti-Christian contingent prevents us from speaking freely?



Matt, you're way off on this one.  You're right that there has been a decline in the quality of the discourse here, but no way is that the fault of this "anti-Christian contingent" that you so fear.  Some of the best, most intelligent, and most eloquent listies I've encountered are non-Christians (and yes, there is a huge difference between being non-Christian and anti-Christian).  While you seem to see a rise in anti-Christian sentiment on the list, if anything there has been an increase in pro-Christian sentiment of late.  Perhaps there's a correlation between the prevalent pro-Christian attitudes around here and the drop in intelligent discourse?  Be wary of casting the first stone, o listies.

Where's Chris Emery when you need him to shake things up around here a bit?


anti-Poughkeepsie, and proud of it!  ;)
