It's a free forum.  As I'm told, "if you don't like what's being said, go. You don't have to read it or answer it."   Hypocrites!  And, as usual, foul-mouthed with it.

Naturalism, naturism  :o

 ;D

Close, put the wrong word into google LOL

Philosophical naturism... that'd almost be worth looking into, if only for the giggles :)

.... er, Jeremy, isn't it against forum rules to have the name of a forum member in the title of a thread? Or for that matter to have a thread about a forum member.

C'mon, Jeremy..... you're losing your grip.  ;)

Ah, well, at least our Vlad's gettin' to ya....

It isn't against the rules, and would only be an issue if it became excessively fractious, when it would be locked or moved.

Since the gist of the thread is about the frequent use of 'Philosophical Naturalism' across multiple threads then we've let it run - for now anyway!

A lot of people don't believe that the loch ness monster exists. Now, I don't know anything about zooology, biology, geology, herpetology, evolutionary theory, evolutionary biology, marine biology, cryptozoology, palaeontology or archaeology... but I think... what if a dinosaur got into the lake?

Gordon, have the rules been changed? I'm sure at one time you couldn't run a thread aimed at another member.

The current Forum Rules have been in place for 2 years now.

Prior to that there were some loose rules, for want of a better term, but they weren't clearly defined, which is why the current rules were developed and implemented. I think that there was a feeling, at best, that you couldn't use names in thread titles.

This wasn't included in the current Rules, especially since at around the same time we extended the use of the 'Prayer' Board to include 'Thoughts and Announcements' where this could be name-specific. However, if a thread title involving a name was clearly intended to insult or demean (e.g. contravene one of the Rules) then it wouldn't be allowed.

This thread does have a point beyond the use of a member's name, as I said earlier, which is Vlad's use of a term that has figured in his posts in numerous threads and in subsequent exchanges with other members. As such, we haven't intervened to close down the thread because, so far anyway, we have no reason to do so (although I have Modded one post).

I like Vlad's persistence too - this place is for sharing opinions, and Vlad's opinions are not offensive - bearing in mind it is a choice to take offence.

Yes, I don't mind Vlad's persistence. Their are other posters, too, that can be just as persistent about certain things.

I have no problem with Vlad being persistent, just an issue with when he lies persistently about what people have said

As far as the Christians are concerned I could not possibly make it any worse than they already consider it. When it come to the opinions of Christians on Pagans and Paganism I treat those opinions with the same contempt as they treat my beliefs. Tit-for-tat sort of thing.

jeremy,
Couldn't you have sent that as a pm to Vlad instead of having your tantrum out in the open? Thanks for the laugh though.

Yes, Vlad is perfectly at liberty to say what he wants but he brings up "philosophical naturalism" as his argument all the bloody time. He tries to derail perfectly good threads with it.

By the same token, I'm allowed to ask him to shut the fuck up about it. I don't expect him to take heed because he doesn't have anything more insightful to say.

Which forum member is called Vlad the Interminable?

Or for that matter to have a thread about a forum member.
It's not about anyone. It's a request for a certain forum member to shut the fuck up about philosophical naturalism

If getting irritated about a member's inability to write reasonable posts and therefore parrot the same nonsense on every thread is "getting to me" I hold my hand up.
