I find that Arndts stuff is wittily constructed, but he's not funny mayby a little funny in the head, mayby entertaining but then the Romans found throwing christians to the lions entertaining :-) I think I have a well developed sense of humor and Ken Arndt does NOT stimulate it. >Who said you made it a secret? "Witchy bitchy buddy" is pretty cute. Witchy and bitchy I am cute I am too! but Ken Arndts buddy???? I really don't think Jen has the balls to buddy up with me !! >By the way, why is it OK to throw KA off of net.motss but not RR off of >net.religion.christian? The way he describes Christians as suffering >from some sort of willful mental delusion sounds a lot like some anti-gay >"homosexuality can be cured" propaganda that runs around. Its OK with me if the n.r.c community razzes RR till he leaves I never read nor post to n.r.c except by accident... a few times I have failed to take n.r.c off of the distribution of a posting (in haste) Last year Ken Arndt posted a series of intensly homophobic garbage to net.motss, he even stirred a controversy between those who said ignore him and he'll go away and those of us who were determined to call him on every word he wrote. personally I do not go along with censoring people from the net like the incident with Don Black, Ken wasn't really kicked off of net.motss, it was just made clear that he was outclassed! Kens stuff in net.motss and Richs stuff in n.r.c is similar in that its an exercise in futility for these two. Why either of them wants to stand in someones front yard and throw brickbats is beyond me! Kens stuff went a bit farther into unacceptability though because he is so F**king insensitive . individual notes groups must be policed by the users to some degree. If RR is just getting his jollys by baiting cristians in n.r.c (and it does seem to be the case!) then by all means I would support the readers of that group to hang garlic up or diplay crosses or whatever works!! by the way Ken seems to be repelled by quotations from Monty Python movies ;-) LUX .. on Owen Rowley
