Also, I noticed that Brittany's Mom has delayed her new book about how to parent! How to get rich might work, however!
Brittany can help her 16 year old sister to raise her kid correctly since she does such a good job!

Ask this Main Street person to please find a less offensive picture. This one showing the evolution fish breeding the Christian fish is way out of line.

Thank you.

It is not the debate to which I protest. It is the offensive picture this person uses. I don't believe Mr. Beverly would allow me to post a picture of my cats mating? Do you?

I do not want to stop the debate. I only want to stop obsene pictures and content from making this site unfit for my grandchildrens viewing.

Thank you

I find a picture of pre-pubescent girls lying on their backs offensive, should they be removed also?

Democracy is not a spectator sport.

Are a sick individual. Good day.

I agree with yardman - that avatar of little girls is weird. What are you implying SD?

I'm calling Cal.

that does not answer the question. Just because you (or I) find something (anything) offensive, is that justifiable grounds for having something banned? Shouldn't it take something more than merely offensive to some particular individual?

Democracy is not a spectator sport.

Hi, it was great meeting you! Look forward to it again.

I think that if it is suggestive in content, yes it should be removed.

Merry Christmas Yardman

of the beholder, bpr, in the eye of the beholder. Happy Holidays to you and yours. Keep the faith.

I do agree, but to me what "Main Stream had up I would not want my little pre-schoolers I teach to see that and ask me to explain it to them. I guess it comes down to what The Citizen thinks. This is not my attack on Main Stream.

are you showing the preschoolers these blogs?

That avatar was no more offensive than listening to the evening news or watching the latest sitcom or t.v. drama. Give me a break.

You cry babies need to get a life.

Main Stream Please, you know the answer to that. Ha.

I am saying if a parent is on the blog and they have a little one, and they see it, which if you ever had kids they are a hand full and you could walk away from the computer and what if they saw it. By the way sometimes my friend does leave her 3 & 5 year old with me and yes sometime I am on the computer. I guess I know now, I can't go to this site. You know it was suggestive. Again, we don't have to be harsh.

I like cry babies - I work with them everyday at school and I sure know what a cry baby is- and it's not the people you are referring to.
But, I do enjoy cry babies.

I missed meeting you, do you plan on coming next time. I hope so.

Merry Christmas

I don't find Main Stream's, not Main Street's, avatar offensive in the least.

For someone who's been here less than a month, please don't ask people to change to meet your socially acceptable standards.

Wait until you read what my avatar says.

The poster Main Stream, et al, have been engaged in a lengthly and educational set of posts that were designed to express individual points of perspective of religion. I have found all the contributers of that set of posts to have clear and compelling arguments for their particular points of view.

I would take great offense to anyone attempting to censor someone else's input.

Ironically, what you are requesting from Cal is exactly what the posts are all about.

thanks bad and yardman. I actually tried to change my avatar just now, and the system won't allow me to for some reason. Either Cal wants me to keep it, or I'm in some kind of 'avatar detention'

That was fun. Muddle mentioned having avatar wars at one time... I think it is a creative idea - everyone change their avatar for a day to keep the visuals interesting.

I would take great offense to anyone attempting to censor someone else's input.

You are missing the point, bad_ptc. Nobody is wanting to censor Main Stream's posts. There's a BIG difference between censoring his posts and censoring his offensive avatar.

If you don't believe me take a look at the site rules.

If you constantly push the envelope with sexual or smutty innuendoes, you will be banned from posting.

IMO, Main Stream's avatar breaks the rules, but I guess we'll see what Cal & Company have to say (if anything).

BTW: too bad you didn't come today. You might have found out that I'm not as horrible as you may think.
