I don't know. If we boycotted this board would the same thing happen?
The difference is that this MB does not have biased moderating.

Yeah, but would this board turn into RFM if the believers left? I'm not sure.

I've never visited RFM. Clearly, a MB needs people with different perspectives. I'm glad that you and other believing LDS post here.

Great thread....LOVIN' the sex talk.

You guys know this is inhumanely cruel to do to Bond, Nehor and I, right???? What with all of our non-self imposed celibacy and all...

Bond and Nehor, isn't it just ironic that the best lovers (that would be us 3) are the ones without women to please???

If the believers left this board it would indeed devolve into something else. The opposite is true on MAD as well. Sure, they would have a never ending cadre of young evangelicals on a mission from God, but the same stuff would get boring. That would be the time to bring in the A.I. computer guys, and just have the computer spit out programmed responses from FAIR and Jeff Lindsey. You could even have the computer offering a rotation Pahoran, Juliann, Hammer and Selek-type responses as well. No way Keene could match that.

It is frustrating to realize how badly this thread got derailed with the sex stuff. Why couldn't a separate sex thread have been opened?

It started out as a reply to a comment on housecleaning/banning, and devolved from there. Sorry, lil penguin.

Are you sure Keene could not automate Pahoran, Juliann, Hammer and Selek-type responses, using Mercury and Porter. I mean, these seem so patterned that it must be possible.

I actually had to stop following the thread, since it was fairly off-track and of little interest to me. Perhaps someone (i.e., a moderator) could spin the sex stuff into its own thread in an appropriate forum, so that we can once again discuss the subject at hand as it develops?

Typical. Some close-minded repressed patriarchal male telling women how to act and control their own sexuality.

Because, you know, old authoritarian men have the RIGHT to tell all people how to express themselves sexually. :P

Coggins, please tell me you're a parody of an over-the-top TBM. That way I can appreciate your posts as humor.

If you are serious, well..... yikes. Just yikes.

If you ever come up with an intellectually substantive comment on the issue at hand, please feel free to post it right here.
