Breaking News: WWGHA Bites The Dust

Post by Calilasseia » Mon Jan 09, 2012 3:41 am

Get ready for a new influx of refugees. It seems that then Why Won't God Help Amputees forum is now dead. I'm hearing vague rumours that the plug was pulled by the ISP, and that said plug pulling bears the hallmarks of egregious SOAP law abuse. Anyone here any the wiser about this latter issue?

In any case, get ready to pluck life rafts out of the ocean, as it were.

The anti-pirate laws that the mongers of False Beliefs use to bring down His Noodly Wrath upon the earth.

What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

Is it a big forum?

There should be a way of directing serious folk to Ratskep, and the rest to here...

Could we work on the Ratz logo so there is at least an amputee lurking there? It would bring more fundies to chew on.
