Fox, I used to live in Southsea and regularly stood on the terraces at Fratton Park, so although not a supporter by birth I am always glad when they do well (though not at the expense of my own team). Also, Carl Sagan's words are humbling, to say anything else about them would only detract from their power. Genghis Marauding 18:29, 5 April 2008 (EDT)


 * Heh, "I take my seat in Fratton Park, that's my buzz: the Fratton End, a feeling I would recommend". That's a fantastic cover of a great Coldplay choon, btw; don't skip following that link :) I am forever Pompey Blue :) Southsea - now there's a place. I think it has a great atmosphere, particularly off-season. There's something special about roaming Southsea on a grey blustery afternoon, the smell of the sea dust in your nose, then popping in somewhere warm for a few jars. I'm not Pompey by birth either, but I spent a lot of my childhood there, including my (Royal Marine) uncle taking me to Fratton Park, then returned when I was variously at HMS Dolphin, Haslar, and X-poled aboard HMS Richmond. When I left the forces, I settled in Wiltshire, then almost immediately moved to Hampshire. I live nearer to Winchester, but Portsmouth has a special place in my heart, it really is a very special city. It isn't unusual for me to just tip up at Fratton Park on a weekday morning, just to soak up being there lol. Although, in many ways, Portsmouth illustrates what is wrong with post-War Britain, I firmly believe it is a great example of how it is not the Briton/Portsmouth native that is truly at fault, but more the actions/lack thereof of successive weak and fuzzy-thinking British governments. Adult male relatives who visit me for more than a day are always treated to a all-day sesh on the shant in Pompey, btw, and they all go away with a new respect for what - despite the "we hate foreigners and foreign begins at Havant" act - really is a warm (metaphorically), friendly piece of an England that once was but is no more.


 * Pale Blue Dot... Yes, I never feel like adding much to what he says there. It fits with my belief in a non-interventionist G-d, rather than questions His existence (for me, that is) and is very good at "grounding" one's thoughts. Suffice to say, I find it a very emotional combination of words, images and music.


 * Mogwai are a wonderful band, woefully under-exposed and appreciated. They remind me of the sound that my own band (Iscariot) were looking for in the mid/late 80s, but never achieved due to a)no talent! and b)too much boozing/carousing :D The JAMC (and also, to be fair, Fields of the Nephilim) influence is staggering - who'd have thought Psychocandy would bring us My Father My King? I like that piece perhaps more than Stop Coming to My House and Mogwai Fear Satan (a very Catholic choon lol follow this link, turn your volume up to 11 and skip to the point at 6mins 20 secs for full effect), particularly the (obvious) Jewish influence (Avinu Malkenu). There is a great mash up of the original Nosferatu movie:


 * Mogwai Versus Nosferatu (Part 01)
 * Mogwai Versus Nosferatu (Part 02)
 * Mogwai Versus Nosferatu (Part 03) (personally, my favourite of the 3 sections)

 * Hey Fox, I went to school with legions of Pompey boys - our dads were all in the Navy or Marines. Fair to say Portsmouth is pretty special to me too.  My parents set up their first home there, where my brother was born.  My sister was christened there on HMS Intrepid on which dad later sailed from Pompey to the Falklands. Very moving memories of waiting at the quayside as she sailed, battered but intact thank goodness, up the harbour. Picked my dad out amongst the crew lined to acknowledge us, and ran up the gangplank to greet him.  Dad served until 1987 - any overlap?  His subsequent postings were HMS Achilles (back to the Falklands!), then a stint at Northwood, and his final gig was sea trials on the newly built Ark Royal. In 2002 we scattered dad's ashes from aboard a naval launch in the Solent.  I was last back there in 2006 to take the ferry to France and fittingly spotted Intrepid, alongside Fearless, rusting in the Harbour waiting to be broken up.


 * I'll be back in England celebrating my sister's (she of Intrepid fame) wedding on Cup Final day - but hopefully will find time to sneak a look at how your boys are doing. Play up Pompey!  Matt  08:57, 11 April 2008 (EDT)


 * Hey Matt :) Yes, some overlap, although (it doesn't say here now, but once did) I was originally Army, and only "0n loan" to the Navy and Air Force. However, after my first tour as a pongo ("when the Army goes, the pong goes") on HMS Richmond (in the South Atlantic, coincidentally) I did regretfully admit that I wished I had signed up in the Navy rather than the Army. I eventually - and mainly because I was very strongly opposed to the bombing campaign conducted by NATO against Serbian civilians because of Kosovo - resigned in 2000. I spent a long time in the Falklands, a fantastic place. The Solent - yes, I'm sure that there is no finer place for a matelot to find as his last resting place. I come from a family with a strong history of military service - my grandfather was a Royal Fusilier (City of London Regiment), my uncles Royal Marines and Royal Navy, my father Royal Air Force, my mother QARANC, my eldest brother RAF, myself Army. I think there is/was a drive for first/second generation immigrants to "stand up and be counted" for their adoptive homes, which is now sadly lacking/non-existent. A huge chunk of the original family that arrived/were born in England also left off for Australia in the 60s where they served with distinction in the Aussie forces. My eldest daughter grew up wanting to be a Royal Marine (a Commando sniper, to be exact lol), but left England and joined the IDF instead. My eldest son isn't quite of age yet, but I have a feeling he will also go IDF. My youngest are too young to even contemplate such cruel notions as war, and - like any good Jewish parent I would prefer them to have a career in medicine or law lol - but who knows?


 * Congratulations are in order for the wedding et al :) and I hope that when you look up the scores we have royally kicked Cardiff's waggy ass. If we don't then c'est la vie, but I think it is time that the City of Portsmouth had something - other than their wartime stoicism under intense bombing (until recently, the bomb sites were still there, ignored by government spending and grants! : and devotion to national duty - to smile about :D Fox 16:58, 11 April 2008 (EDT)

conservapedia
I missed out on most of what happened at conservapedia. Are you not coming back? You were such a valuable content editor :( SHahB 15:49, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * I'm not really following who is who, but I'm hazarding a guess that you are Bohdan? Sorry if I'm confused about all that. Anyway. CP. I haven't retired from there, but it has been made very clear to me that I am not welcome, and will be blocked whenever possible, and may as well not waste my time there. IF that situation was to change, then I wouuld go back to finishing my series of biblical articles, for example (see my CP articles on Jude/Hebrews/Philemon; I have a huge chunk of hard drive still devoted to works in progress, and my Revelations article would havce been a show-stopper). As I said, they've made it clear that WeirdEdMoon and TK are their rising stars and my edits are unwelcome. Fox 15:57, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Don't forget Karajou, and his miraculous ability to be personally offended by different things.- 16:02, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Come back. I will do my best to ensure that you are not blocked unfairly.  Without content editors, cp is drifting away from it encyclopedia goal. SHahB 16:10, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * ShabbyBohdan, you know they've got bigger problems than a lack of content. The content they have sucks, too, and is mostly geared to offending people they don't like.  Not to mention to the schoolyard bullies.- 16:11, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Amos, I am not thrilled with the "Liberal ____" articles either. True or not, you won't find any of that in a real encyclopedia.  However, if you and your buddies weren't so passive-aggressive, you could look beyond that and add actual content to the encyclopedia.  If only you didn't keep getting yourself blocked, you could write about non-controversial topics.  Like write articles that don't have anything to do with politics and abortion or evolution.  But sadly none of you could do that. SHahB 16:42, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Bohdan, If you check my contribs, I spent most of my time there puttering around on non-controversial topics like the building trades and some music articles. However, I was not just blocked, but banned for amusing myself with other people who thought CP was a bit "off" at another website.  (My bannination was undone by some sockop gone postal, and reinstated as five years, so now I am just "blocked"). human  22:13, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Come off it Bohdan - why should people from here help Andy by writing "non-controversial" articles for Andy's benefit? CP is a blatantly ideological project with a very thin educational veneer. Andy tolerates benign articles like Bethany's parade of second-rate fantasy literature only because it's the only way he can claim that CP is not what it is - a narrowminded, ideological, hateful blog. Thise "Liberal-" articles are not the exception, they're the freakin' rule. PFoster 16:48, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * PS - We help Andy out enough here with our crack team of proofreaders pointing out all of his editorz tyops, spellig misteaks, factuooal errorz, vandalllissmms and unintended racism and sxism. You're welcome. PFoster 16:57, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Full agreement there. The "noncontroversial topics" are nothing more than a transparent figleaf, when the front page is nothing more than an anti-liberal blog aggregator, and encyclopedic articles are considered punishment for people who disagree with the sysops.  CP isn't "drifting away" from the encyclopedia goal, Andy has deliberately set sail in the opposite direction at full speed. --Kels 16:51, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Conservapedia has thousands of articles on topics that don't mention politics, ID, abortion, or the word "Liberal". Many are stubs, but all of you cp bashers seem to forget about those pages. SHahB 16:57, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Wait, I'm confused. Are you talking about the hundreds/thousands of copy-pasted public domain glossary stubs, the dozens of copy-pasted public domain 20k+ articles, or the dozens of copy-pasted articles that should be deleted for being copyright violations but still exist because they were created by sysops or their best friends? Or did you mean empty articles like cp:Umbriel, cp:Nereid or cp:S-type asteroids?
 * And like others said, nobody really cares about those articles. Nobody ever goes there. Otherwise, we wouldn't have things like cp:Miles per gallon (Explain the parts about table cells and subgroups!), cp:Toluene ("Toluene is a colorless liquid of the aromatic group of petroleum hydrocarbons, made by the catalytic reforming of petroleum naphthas containing methyl cyclohexane." - It's all so clear now!) or cp:Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry ("ATSDR serves the public by using the best science, taking responsive public health actions, and providing trusted health information to prevent harmful exposures and diseases related to toxic substances." - Guess why this sounds like an ad!) - all of which were created by sysops. --Sid 17:33, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Ha! I tell you what, the day Andrew restores my sysops and blocking privileges, I'll return. Can't say fairer than that :D 16:18, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Replying to the "Without content editors, cp is drifting away from it encyclopedia goal." bit: Sorry, you're far too late. It's not even the "Liberal [noun]" articles themselves. Those are just symptoms of the much bigger problem CP has. For almost one year now, CP has run as a Top-down, two-class society where the Ruling Class edits by a completely different standard than the Lower Class. Decisions are not made by the community, but by single sysops or a small group of sysops at best. Non-sysops are simply regarded as cheap labor, not as editors. Sysops on the other hand are free to break ALL Commandments and Guidelines. And even when they're caught and cornered, nothing bad ever happens to them. Not even a slap on the wrist. And you're wondering why you don't have content editors anymore? It's like asking yourself why nobody is joining some sorta Forced Labor Camp even though you switched the sign at the entrance to "Happy Fun Editing Hangout". --Sid 17:49, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Its even less 'funny' now when Ed randomly assigns cp:writing assignments to people and people point out that editing is a volunteer thing and so no one can really say "do this." --Shagie 18:06, 11 April 2008 (EDT)

(undent) Bohdan, it becomes difficult to write "non-controversial" topics when even physics (Dicke, GPS) and math become controversial topics. This is to say nothing about astronomy, geology, meteorology, or biology. It seems that anything that can be written on becomes controversial. The only way to write something that isn't controversial appears to be "plagiarize a .gov site" or "write something that fits Andy's definition of reality." --Shagie 17:24, 11 April 2008 (EDT)

Particular favourites include Close To The Edge, Yours Is No Disgrace, Awaken, The Gates of Delirium, The Revealing Science Of God - Dance of the Dawn and Ritual - Nous Sommes Du Soleil. It was when I was spotty adoloscent that I first got into them, way back in the 70s, and I can't recall whether I actually listened to them first or just bought an album on impulse because of the Roger Dean artwork :D Fox 13:53, 12 April 2008 (EDT)

A Jews for Jesus Passover
Hey Fox, I had to share a story with you that I think you'd appreciate. So, my girlfriend is Jewish, but she's an atheist. Her family's traditionally Reform. But, anyways, she very much identifies with Jewish culture, and Israel, so we put together a short-form Passover Seder for us and our friends on Saturday night. We got a little bit into the Haggadah (which we'd downloaded off the webs), and one of my friends points out, "hey, the Haggadah says something about Matthew & Luke. And somebody called Yeshua." Me - "Oh no." Oh yes. While trying to do our best to put on a Reform/atheist Seder, we had inadvertently used a Messianic Haggadah.

I thought you might appreciate our brief and accidental foray into Messianic Judaism :-). And a belated happy Passover to you (I don't know the Hebrew greeting that's proper...) and your family!- 20:28, 21 April 2008 (EDT)


 * Hehe that's a class faux pas :D And just goes to show that even the atheists and the Reform can't escape Moshiach forever /wink Fox 20:41, 21 April 2008 (EDT)
 * An interesting interpretation! *singing Enrique Iglesias* You can run, you can hide, but you can't escape the Messiah!  Hmm.  We'll see.  Anyways, we also made a discovery.  If you're making macaroons, but don't freeze the "dough" overnight like you're supposed to, perhaps because you forgot to :-), they turn out flat instead of round.  And they're delicious and easier to eat!- 20:56, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

Also, my cat is antisemitic! Girlfriend and I made a clay dreidel, and the cat hunts it down and knocks it off tables, beds, shelves - wherever I put it!- 22:46, 21 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Is it a Persian cat? :D j/k Fox 06:20, 23 April 2008 (EDT)
 * I attached a picture of kitty to the page. She's not Persian, but she is ADORABLE- 18:19, 23 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Haha antisemitic indeed - I strongly suspect she is not waving but is instead presenting me with her "third eye" as a gesture of contempt :D Fox 05:10, 24 April 2008 (EDT)

Oh, incorrect! This gesture came right off of her itching her ear. I can only imagine she was saying hi. Either that or she hates me more than she hates you....- 16:39, 24 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Speaking of Passover, our article is a shameful stub and could use some 10,000 point improvements by someone more familiar with the tradition... human  20:28, 27 April 2008 (EDT)

Oh noes!
I am officially middle-aged :( I have a burning urge to grow my hair very long (before it starts to disappear), and while the children are at their maths tutor this morning I plugged in my bass and actually played along to "The Fountain of Salmacis"! For shame. I shall warn my wife to keep me away from motorcycle showrooms. Fox 06:38, 23 April 2008 (EDT)
 * You're screwed, man. Might as well buy a lifetime's supply of Werthers, book a Saga holiday, and check out the stairlifts and walk in baths in the back of the Saturday Telegraph magazine. Oh, and visiting motorcycle showrooms is compulsory.

 * Aw shucks; thanks all. By the way, I stole my wife's credit card recently and bought CS3 Extended - I shall now attempt to shop a piccie to see how long hair would suit me now I am wrinkled and greying. I'm actually quite serious about the hair lol - I began to grow it as a teenager, then joined the Army, and have for a zillion years had a hair cut every Friday ever since. But I really want those flowing locks :D See the first few seconds of this viddy to see my (current) beard, as worn by Phil Colins, and I'm wondering if I should go with the hair length of Colins or Gabriel... My wife says she will not go out in public with me if I have long hair. I'm wondering whether that's a good thing or a bad thing :P Fox 16:19, 23 April 2008 (EDT)

Did Andy teach you nothing? A woman shouldn't be out in the first place ;p! Anyway, your appreciation of prog rock fills me with a strange combination of fear and awe. You are hereby some form of being simultaneously shunned and exalted by the musical world. I think that's a good thing. --מְתֻרְגְּמָן שְׁלֹום

 * BTW I knew (slightly (NOT in the biblical sense!)) Peter S back in the 60's - he & his brother ran their 1st club (the Mojo) in Sheffield - He was a wazzock even back then.

Mr Poor
Just Googled:  unification church "ed Poor" - try it! 332 finds. 07:14, 1 May 2008 (EDT)
 * I'm only a few entries into the results and already, my reaction is "Wow, that's fucking scary." WeirdEdMoon has his nasty little tentacles into a lot of "educational" sites... Fox 07:23, 1 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Something that I thought of yesterday: the long-term moonie members, the devoted disciples, all work for the UC (and often live in its accomodation.) WeirdEdMoon has always been less than forthcoming about where he works etc - I feel more convinced today that he is in fact a full time "employee" of the UC. Fox 07:28, 1 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Similarly - it seeems that he's anywhere that will allow him room. He almost MUST be a full time apologist for them - hours in the day etc. - Wonder if Andy S. is aware of his spread/reach? 07:31, 1 May 2008 (EDT)
 * (RatWiki comes in @ number 10 on my google!) 07:32, 1 May 2008 (EDT)
 * I got it at #8 :) Some of the comments at "Welshman's" blog are enlightening, too. I shall continue to dig at this, even though I may just be polishing a turd. The whole thing is starting to stink of UC. Fox 07:47, 1 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Daily Kos:
 * The Moon organization wrote the book on spin. Poor doesn't appear to be working that discussion page now. However, he is listed on the staff list for Moon's own Wiki, the "Encyclopedia Project" which is part of Moon's Universal Peace Federation. from http://www.upfencyclopedia.org/... IT Consultant and Wikipedia liaison: Ed Poor"
 * 08:12, 1 May 2008 (EDT)
 * That moon-wiki is locked down tight with lots of unviewable pages :( Going back to the dailykos thing, it looks as though WeirdEd shows up there, as he may be the poster "Ibyron"; the implication is that they were expecting him to turn up and spin the moon gospel, and Ibyron also uses some of the same points that Ed uses in his "True Parent" articles...

(undent)Thanks for the google suggestion, Susan - this has been eye-opening. I've long had suspicions about Poor and once I actually started looking for info on the UC and how it operates, my tin-foil hat conspiracy theory began to develop. I talked about it with a few trusted associates, and the last 24 hrs have really blown this thing wide open. I'm still trying to take it all in, figure out who knows what. Its fair to say that none of the other sysops realize what's going on under their noses, although at least 3 of them have now emailed me expressing concerns about the possible Moonie agenda. Fox 10:03, 1 May 2008 (EDT)

 * There's The Encyclopedia. It's a wiki - no way of contributing & the talk pages don't appear to be accessible (but they're asking for donations!) you can however search them & Uncle Ed's quite prolific on them Needs A RatWiki Article! 10:20, 1 May 2008 (EDT)

Plenty of better minds (I'm thinking journalists in Washington...) than theirs could have avoided the same fate but didn't. Fox 04:55, 2 May 2008 (EDT)

 * Of course I will. I live for that shit :) For the other courage-challenged users here, I should maybe qualify all this before you get the wrong idea. I still think CP is on the wrong track. I still think Ed Poor is a fucking evil, anti-semitic, head-fucked, brainwashed tosser. I still think TK is to the internet what tubercolosis is to Man. But you all seem to underestimate me somewhat in your desire to pigeon hole me with the people you detest at CP. I'm a Jew hated by Jews, never mind the rest of the world. Most of my family don't talk to me because of my religious beliefs. I grew up in a hard, violent working class environment, a "pit" village in an otherwise rural area. I've spent most of my life fighting people. I joined the Army and got paid for fighting people. I raised my two eldest in the ultra-racist environment of an Army married quarters estate - my eldest daughter grew up having to beat up the older boys who taunted her "baby brother" for being a "Yid". (And she got good at it.) I once shaved off all my hair (its an intimidating look) and walked into a nazi-filled pub and offered them all out rather than let them carry on slagging off my wife (who worked there part-time in those days) with their Auschwitz gags. They bottled it. Even now, we face hostility at a level you intellectual prima donnas could never survive. We live in a tiny village and are having to move to a tinier village to escape the hostility we engender - simply by homeschooling!! - here. I am due in Crown Court in a few weeks for ABH on a guy that slagged off Jews to my daughter recently when she came to visit after putting her life on the line for "her" people (people that don't even accept her parents). I will probably avoid a custodialn sentence, my brief reckons - no previous, good character, etc. But I'd do it all again. You see, while some people are internet-brave and like to throw their intellectual weight around, I actually stand up for what I believe in. When will you all see that its time toi "grow up" and move on from the (as I put it recently) "shooting fish in a barrel" at CP and do something worthwhile..? You're making a stand against a bunch of kids and their teacher. Wow. I tip my hat. Fox 17:59, 7 May 2008 (EDT)

I "support CP by editing there" mostly because it riles Ed Poor - what is your raison d'etre for being here? "Childish"?

It takes all sorts
Fox, you seem to be riling against some people for taking on CP instead of MP and accusing them of cowardice for not attacking the latter. Surely you can agree that all of it is worthwhile? If everyone concentrated their fire-power on Nazis, would that not give the likes of CP free-rein? And, to be fair to contributors here, perhaps they attack CP because they know more about the religious right than fascism. Besides which, anti-Nazi fighting is a serious business. Mocking some of the lunacy at CP just wouldn't work against Nazis. Just because something is not as important as something else doesn't mean you should drop the former and concentrate on the latter. It takes all sorts. Ajkgordon 03:30, 8 May 2008 (EDT)

 * Fox, it is not an ideological choice. This place was born (100 %), lives (90 %) and will die (probably) with Conservapedia. For an all-encompassing wiki check Wikipedia.

 * Yeah, well, I gave Fox an eight hour or so time-out for calling another user a "Nazi". Mostly, when he is off line, and won't even notice.  BUT!  Hey Fox, it's not OK to call people "Nazis" unless they give evidence of being such.  Your version of what constitutes a "Nazi" is lame, in this context. human  00:16, 11 May 2008 (EDT)
 * No, you seem to have some closeted view that a "nazi" has to be a skinhead, or wearing a swastika armband, or in the Klan, or gassing Jews, or beating up passing black people, or some other cliched caricature. When the truth is that bigotry and prejudice and hating someone because they are different to you is nazism, and trying to pretend otherwise is not simply naive, its deceitful. Dictionaries? Try this: "One who regards or treats the members of a group with hatred and intolerance." Would it be considered okay to make fun of a LGBS family? Of course not. A large gypsy family? Never. Nazis aren't confined to the Third Reich, and nazis didn't just target Jews. They targeted anybody who wasn't exactly like them, even if that was simply a case of being a "liberal intellectual", or a trade unionist. Take off the blinkers, and explain why singling out a family, that you've never even met, for public mockery - just because they are white, Christian homeschoolers with a lot of kids - is any different. You can pretend that you're just being provocative intellectuals, courageously pushing the envelope in your attempts to show CP=bad. But when you turn to blind, uninformed bigotry just to get laughs, deciding that some types of people can be mocked, humiliated and slandered with impunity, then you need to stop and think about difficult truths, stop and ask why you do not hold everyone to the same standard of mutual respect. "The ignorant but rational bigot is still a bigot, just as the drunk driver is still a murderer. Threfore, choose not to spare feelings when you hear ignorant arguments that, if put into policy, would perhaps lead to genocide. A bigot is a bigot."

I've got a suspicion some of this boils down to semantics. How prejudiced must a person be before that person is called a Nazi. Nazis arn't all skinheads. Nazis arn't all fools in Jackboots like Oberleutnant Hakenkreuz. David Irving is also a Nazi. I'm as bit sorry for Fox. He/she is being punished for expressing a sincere opinion. I haven't had time to read all this closely. As far as I can see every case where Fox called someone a Nazi that person is a Nazi or that person is very prejudices and close to a being Nazi. Proxima Centauri 14:28, 11 May 2008 (EDT)


 * This thing has had me thinking for two days now. Michael Ignatieff once said that "genocide" is a word that gets used too often in cases where it should not be and not nearly enough in cases where it should, and I think that the same can be said about "Nazi." Strictly speaking, one could argue the word should be applied only to a historically specific political movement that existed in Germany from 1928 (?) until 1945. From that position one could expand one's use of the term to similar political movements that existed around the time (and then deal with the debate over the question of whether or not fascism and Nazism are equivalents or simply similar in some ways), to political movements that see/define themselves as the intellectual/political heirs of Nazism, to movements that meet some sort of objective criteria for application of the term no matter how the people involved choose to define it, to what Fox seems to have done (and forgive me for putting words into your mouth here), seeing a particular resonance between a stated position and Nazi ideology. The problem with this last bit is that it can be read as being pretty subjective, and runs the risk of sliding into calling anything that doesn't agree with your own politics as "Nazism" - which seems to be the objection of many here. I don't agree with Fox on this one, but I do see where he's coming from. I have serious issues with a couple having 18 kids - especially 18 kids growing up to have giant Western-sized environmental footprints. That strikes me as selfish and not particularly forward thinking. That doesn't make me a Nazi, it makes me a political and environmental realist, but whatever, that's just one guy's opinion. My take: use the word Nazi when dealing with political movements or ideas that are racially-based and exterminationist and find better, more precise words in other cases. PFoster 14:48, 11 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Well put, Foster. If you advocated executing the parents and their children, or putting the children to work in a slave-labor camp, that would make you a Nazi. Expressing an opinion that their actions were unintelligent and perhaps selfish does not.  Rational Ed think! 10:26, 13 May 2008 (EDT)

Also Wikinterpreter. I tried also to unlock (off top of head) PalMD, Ames, possibly Human, etc. I'm here under sufferance. As soon as I say something that stings, I get a block. Users here have called me a paedophile without serious censure from the "community". Similarly, there are many users on CP who I recognise as RW users. As soon as they say something that is a blatant falsehood I block them (hello Marge/Pam). It is a symbiotic relationship, in many cases. Jello's butting in on the argument was not out of liberal concerns, it was a personal insult weighed up after reading yesterday's discussion here. I blocked for 24 hrs, but said editor couldn't resist further digs here. I'm not the only person reading this site, obviously. I think I was lenient, given that jello will back within 24 hrs under a new name. And Susan, nice to know that you think being called a paedophile is such a minor thing. Fox 11:39, 30 July 2008 (EDT)

I believe I was commenting on what I see as the excessive interest in "sexual perversion" exhibited by some editors over at CP and noting that Andy and Ed (to name some names)only found power and influence in among children and used their position to be bullies and creeps.  Fox choose to (mis)take those remarks as being directed at him personally. I had no idea who he was at the time and don't really now.

Re: Your New user Page Essay
Fox,

You make some interesting points, and I'd like to respond to some of them.

First and foremost: I think you're making precisely the mistake which is the major fault of both CP and RW. You talk about "you people" as if we were some sort of contiguous group with a unified philosophy and identical positions. We're not. Chances are, I have very little in common with many of the people here. I don't particularly hate anybody at CP (how could I? I've never met any of them.)  I think there's a tremendous amount of hypocrisy and dishonesty there, but I also acknowledge that there's quite a bit here. While I'm willing to call people out for hypocrisy--and to use humor as a weapon against it--there are certain lines I will not cross. I would never, for example, vandalize or attack a website; nor do I approve of such activity.

As far as the whole "Punching things and people" issue goes, I can't applaud you for it. That has nothing to do with your faith or anti-Semitism in general; I just don't think it's a good thing when people lose control and physically assault one another. I won't even lie and say that there are absolutely no circumstances under which I would do the same, but I think it would take a lot.

If alcohol causes you problems with self-control, I'd suggest avoiding it. That's not meant as an insult; it's honest advice from someone who never touches the stuff. I am quite aware that I have a highly addictive personality; therefore, I avoid substances to which I do not want to become addicted. The same logic, I think, should apply to substances that can compromise your judgement to the point where you punch holes in walls.

At any rate--the fact that I disagree with you doesn't automatically mean I hate you. Just something to consider. --Phentari 15:17, 4 August 2008 (EDT)
 * I as a bit taken aback by the "you people". I've never insulted you or even taken much interest in CP (which I personally believe is a lot more boring than many people seem to think) -  I've never told you or Andy to "fuck off" or called anybody a "paedophile" etc etc. Whether your criticisms are correct or not I'm not in a position to say, as I couldn't keep up with the last round of debate. But RW is more than the people who chose to debate with you and you may be painting with slightly too broad a brush.--Bobbing up 15:29, 4 August 2008 (EDT)
 * I find areas of agreement with both comments, but diasgree. Comment 1 is from a non-Jew who therefore cannot be relied upon to give a subjective PoV from a purely Jewish perspective about Holocaust jokes: qv user:DLerner. Second user, well, perhaps you should take more interest in what a website you purport to support claims. caveat emptor.... 89.243.244.18 15:43, 4 August 2008 (EDT)


 * I'm a bit puzzled. First off, I don't believe my faith or lack thereof has ever been established.  Secondly, my comment had nothing to do with Holocaust jokes, other than the tangential matter of the response to said joke.  I would respond the same to an atheist punching someone for saying "Atheists are going to hell," to a Christian punching someone for making jokes about the Passion, or a native of Japan punching someone for making a joke about Hiroshima.  I don't and wouldn't fault any of them for being offended--but I will not applaud the lack of self control implicit in allowing words to goad one into a physical attack.


 * I don't accept the premise that only those who are members of a given group are entitled to criticize the actions of a member of that group. --Phentari 16:00, 4 August 2008 (EDT)
 * Like I said, you cannot be relied upon to give a decent opinion on the subjerct. Had you parents been lucky survivors of some extermination camp set up to gas atheists and their babies, I would detect some common sense in your answer. As they patently were not, I detect some scorn in my opinion that you are therefore talking out of your starfish =) Fox 16:11, 4 August 2008 (EDT)


 * I'm sorry you're unable to detect the common sense in my answer. And as I said the last time you took this position: it's remarkably presumptive.  First, you presume to know more about me than you do; second, you presume that all children of Holocaust survivors will share your viewpoint.  Third, you seem to be concluding that your parentage frees you from any criticism whatsoever as long as you can link it to the issue of the Holocaust in any way.


 * Had you hit the man with a rock, would I still not be qualified to criticize your actions? What about shooting him?


 * On a related subject: how far does this unique insight extend? Will your children be exempt from criticism if they engage in similar acts, on the grounds that their grandparents were Holocaust survivors?  What about their children?  (That's more than a rhetorical question, by the way, and I'm honestly curious as to your answer.)  --Phentari 16:36, 4 August 2008 (EDT)
 * LOL if you genuinely can't see that you are playing semantics and, frankly, talking a load of old shite, then perhaps RW is your resting place. No other site - except Stormfront and its ilk - would have you. Does that speak volumes about you as a person, or about RW..? Fox 16:41, 4 August 2008 (EDT)
 * And my children? If you think its any part of this site to involve our extended families, then trust me, my children would happily mete out justice on those who think it is fashionable to apologize for genocide. Wouldn't yours? If not, perhaps you need to reevaluate what they're learning. Fox 16:45, 4 August 2008 (EDT)
 * I think you're both talking at cross purposes. Ajkgordon 16:46, 4 August 2008 (EDT)

(Unindent) Okay. I'd like to touch on a few things here.

First: take a step back and compare our exchanges. Have I insulted you? Have I talked down to you? I've said I can't agree with some of the things you've said and done. I've also acknowledged that, under certain circumstances, I might be tempted to do the same. The main point of difference is that I don't think it's the best response, and I don't think I'd be justified if and when I did get angry enough to haul off and punch someone. I offered you some advice, and I hope you didn't take that as insulting--it was honest advice, based on what you seem to think yourself is a self-control problem, from someone who has a similar problem.

Now, compare that to your responses to me. You've repeatedly told me that I'm not entitled to have an opinion on the subject, despite not knowing anything about me other than that I don't wholeheartedly agree with you. You've voiced your scorn for me, used profanity, and are now making not-so-thinly veiled suggestions that I would find Stormfront congenial.

C'mon, Fox...I belong on Stormfront? Really? Saying "I don't think punching someone in the face is the right answer" means I'm a white supremacist?

Which of us is showing anger and intolerance towards the other?

I can't help but wonder: based on the discussion we've had so far...and the fact that you've apparently decided that I'm a Holocaust apologist...if I were sitting face to face with you right now, would you be tempted to punch me in the face?

I have no children; if and when I do, I can't say that I would encourage them to "mete out justice." I would encourage them to seek justice, certainly. I would encourage them to stand up and strongly denounce those who do wrong. Should they choose to seek a career in which they were charged with enforcing justice...as police, or in the military...I would support their decision. That wasn't really the point of my question, though; I'm attempting to determine who, exactly, you feel would be qualified to offer an opinion on the subject. (What is the subject, by the way? My initial post had nothing at all to do with the Holocaust, so how did it become an issue?)

I'm not sure if you're going to be willing to really look at this exchange and see the point I'm trying to make, Fox. I hope you will. You have some good insights, and I've enjoyed reading them in the past. But if you choose to see everyone as an enemy, it's easy to make that a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I'm not your enemy. I'm disappointed that you apparently view me as one. --Phentari 17:05, 4 August 2008 (EDT)


 * It isn't that I view you as an enemy, altough to be fair, this site in general will swear black is white to find fault with its detractors. To your direct question: What then is the judicial punishment for a non-Jew who mocks a Jew - and his teenage daughter, veteran of the IDF - with jokes about the Holocaust? What if I had instead followed the law of the land, and gone away to report this to the "local constabulary", as a law abiding citizen? Firstly, they might have asked the name of this supposed "nazi sympathiser". I didn't know it. (I do now, of course, lol...) Or a description ("Guy in jeans and black Tshirt") Let's face it, today's judicial process isn't interested in that. I would have spent 3 or 4 hours making a statement, the police would have nodded and made "hmm" noises and life would have gone on. As it happened, I chose not to follow that procedure. I chose instead to explain loudly that I took offense at his humour, and then chose instead to strike him - as hard as I can remember, harder than I ever struck anybody before or since - with my bunched right fist in his face. My knuckles connected perfectly with his cheek, shattering his zygomatic bone and tearing his flesh, resulting in a permanent disfigurement. No statements, no ID parades, no ambiguity. "Twat got his". Afterwards, as everyone else urged me to "run away", I stood my ground. I waited for the polis while he sobbed and whimpered and bled and snotted on the floor. The souls of six million Jews *may* have looked on. Many may have felt I had gone a "punch too far". But if only one screaming baby, inhaling zyklon B, agreed that this dick got a good slap, that was justification enough for me. He'll still be a twat, but at least now every day he will wake and shave and remember that sometimes the objects of his humour rise up and strike back... My children have been raised to do the same. Does that make me the bad man? Perhaps it does in your worldview. But not in ours. Fox 17:30, 4 August 2008 (EDT)


 * Let me try to respond to one thing at a time.


 * 1. The "hitting the guy" issue. As I said, I can't agree that this was the right choice.  Please note: I didn't say "don't," I said "can't."  That's a matter of my religious faith; I'm a strict pacifist as a matter of faith.  Even so, I acknowledge (as I said) that there are probably situations where I would do something similar.  If someone were to attack my wife, for instance, I'm realistic enough to acknowledge that my pacifism would probably go right out the window.  I do admire your willingness to accept the consequences of your actions.


 * 2. I never said you were a bad man. I said I couldn't agree with all of your choices.  There's a world of difference between the two.


 * 3. The thrust of my initial post wasn't specifically the fact that you punched this one guy...it was the fact that you seem to get into moods where you feel the need to punch things in general, literally or metaphorically. I can at least understand punching the guy, even if I don't wholeheartedly support it.  On the other hand, when I hear someone admit that they sometimes get angry enough to start punching walls, I see that as cause for at least mild concern that there's an anger management problem.


 * I think that's what's carrying over to these boards in a metaphorical sense; you get angry, and you start swinging. Maybe sometimes you hit the guy who made the offensive joke, maybe sometimes you hit an unoffending wall...or maybe sometimes you hit someone who just happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.  I honestly feel like you got in a few good shots on me in this exchange that I didn't really deserve.  The Stormfront thing hit in a sensitive spot, I'll admit it.  Your parents were Holocaust survivors; my dad was a civil rights activist from Louisiana who had members of his own family disown him for "betraying his race."


 * 4. And that brought me to the advice...which, again, was honest advice: if you know that alcohol can result in behavior you're not proud of afterwards, maybe it's best just to steer clear. For some people, it's not a good choice.  I know it's not for me; it sounds like it might not be for you.


 * --Phentari 17:45, 4 August 2008 (EDT)


 * You see, this is where all this bullshit starts. There's nothing wrong with my walls. They're all "punch free". Its the bullshit merchants at RW who spread this crap. I *don't* go around randomly flinging fists at passers-by - or walls - who disagree. That's just way "you people" say/imply. I will admit that I will punch anybody who supports the shoah, and I don't care what your "moral" judgement of that is. If *I'm* wrong, it doesn't matter. If *you're* wrong, G-d will - hopefully- forgive me. Meantime, I have the moral backing of a people who feel that 6 million (including 1.5 million children) was going a little buit too far... Alcohol is a double-bluff - I wasn't drunk when I punched that twat. Hence the judge's comments that alcohol may have been a disinhibitor, but wasn't the cause of the punch. Surprisingly, had the intoximeter demonstrated I was "legally" drunk, I may have been treated even more leniently by the court. I don't have "previous", not even a parking ticket. I scarred that twat good, and the judge 'fessed up in the Goodyear Direction that normallly I would have received 12 months porridge. But I had a good character, clean, and was to some degree - in judicial terms - provoked. In this instance, the provocateur got what he deserved. How about the provocateurs here..? Fox 18:01, 4 August 2008 (EDT)


 * Ah. You have my apologies, then; I misunderstood.  In fairness, though, I misunderstood based on what you had written in your essay:


 * You make a big thing, recently, about me getting pissed and "punching holes in bathroom walls" and having to "move house". Listen to yourselves. I admit, alcohol is such a rarity in my household that I'm not as used to its effects as some of you. The judge in my infamous nazi punch case said that my "lack of familiarity" with alcohol - bearing in mind that I rarely drink - may have acted as - his words - "a disinhibitor", and that he didn't feel that alcohol abuse was a problem in my life. I admit its true, I'm anybody's after a shandy. And after a few beers, I am completely "disinhibited". I would almost certainly give the Pope a mouthful after 2 pints, so, after 4 or 5, I can only say that the next day I will probably be ashamed of my actions =/ Not the best thing to do, but surely better than being an alcoholic or frequent boozer? Call me a PuP, but don't imply I'm a wino.


 * Based on that paragraph, I thought you were saying that you had punched holes in your bathroom walls, and that you thought the people at RW were unreasonable for making a "big thing" out of it. Again, please accept my apologies for misunderstanding that.  You might want to rewrite the paragraph to clearly indicate that you didn't do that and you object to people saying you did.


 * On the other hand, it really does seem like you're very sensitive about this issue, and like you're not willing to give others a lot of benefit of the doubt when it comes up. (Did I really say anything that merited suggesting that Stormfront would be a good place for me?)  Would you agree that that's a fair assessment?  --Phentari 18:12, 4 August 2008 (EDT)

Fox, I'll throw in my two cents here as well. Phentari made the point above about speaking in terms of "you people" and I agree this is a fundamental error made by everyone at one time or another. I think your suggestion that Stormfront is the only site other than RW that would have some of us is reactionary and beyond the pale. You punched a man in the face because he made some off color (perhaps even truly horrible) remarks about the Holocaust, but not everyone who thinks your choice to punch him was incorrect is a Holocaust denier or apologist.

Now, I made an off color joke the other day about the Holocaust, and I would bet that there are some who would say that since I'm a Muslim it must mean that I hate Jews and that I deny or lessen the events of the Holocaust. Let me be plain when I say that the cold blooded extermination of millions of Jews, Gypsies, Homosexuals, and other "undesirables" is the worst crime in human history and anyone who suggests it didn't happen is a terrible person. Now, I respect that it's a more personal event for you having (from the sounds of things) lost family to the gas chambers, and I can't imagine how that must feel. Here's what I can imagine: Every day I hear horrible things said about my religion. People argue that Muhammed was a demon-possessed pedophile, that we should invade the Middle East and covert everyone to Christianity, that we should just bomb the ME into a glass covered parking lot, etc etc etc. Despite frequent provocation, not once have I had the urge to take out my frustration physically, though Daniel Pipes would have you believe that I'll go into Sudden Jihad syndrome mode and suicide bomb a public place.

In fact, the angriest I've ever been in support of my religion is when Andy denied the Bosnian genocide, yet for all your fervor and the well known statement of Never Again, I don't recall seeing you supporting the inclusion of the Srebrenica massacre in the list of genocides.

I digress, but the point is this: we are brothers, Fox. I bear you know ill will, and I only hope that you feel the same way. Stile4aly 20:01, 4 August 2008 (EDT)
