Win an Internet!
#11
RE: Win an Internet!
This reminds me of that new Cartoon Network show called Level Up where they "broke the internet".
"Sisters, you know only the north; I have traveled in the south lands. There are churches there, believe me, that cut their children too, as the people of Bolvangar did--not in the same way, but just as horribly. They cut their sexual organs, yes, both boys and girls; they cut them with knives so that they shan't feel. That is what the Church does, and every church is the same: control, destroy, obliterate every good feeling. So if a war comes, and the Church is on one side of it, we must be on the other, no matter what strange allies we find ourselves bound to."

Well, it took me slightly longer than I expected, but here is my article refuting some of the arguments Prof. Alan Woodward espoused in his opinion piece.

Please comment on the article, like it, share it around, etc. Would appreciate any effort to spread my blog around teh Internets!

You also shouldn't open mail attachments you didn't ask for or didn't expect from people you do know! Their mail accounts/contact address books can get hacked. It happens all the time. It happened to me twice in the past 2 years! And I know dozens of people who've had it happen to them. Suddenly some of their contacts started to get strange, uncharacteristic mails from them, or that's what it looked like.

So if an email – from anybody – looks strange, or out of place, take a second to think it over! They might just be goofing off, and it's something you simply hadn't expected from them. Or some hacker/spammer could be masquerading under their ID.
