Re: Correction
It was closed, not cancelled.
And your post was plagiarised from The Onion in violation of the forum rules - "Never include material not your own without attribution to the original source."
The original is at
Kinja
If you want to call attention to something like that again I suggest you start a thread in "Free For All" and credit the original source. Limiting your quotes to a paragraph or two and linking to the original would be a good idea, too. There is such a thing as copyright and the owners would be entirely within their rights to demand that your post was removed entirely from the board.

Re: Correction
I moved the topic out of the "Evolution" forum.
I guess I could have moved it to either the "Bible" or "Faith" forums, but, in all honesty, I found the message to be rather offensive, thus I moved it to the "Free For All". Since I didn't think that any quality discussion was going to come out of it, I also closed it.
I may have rushed the decision to close it - I will reopen it.

Re: Correction
It still originated with The Onion, and you didn't adequately reference ANY source. So maybe you should chase up the guy who posted it to your group as well.

I was pretty irritated to see such a thing show up in the "Evolution" forum. No matter how you look at it, not an "Evolution" topic.
Also, while an "Onion" article may contain some humour, I hardly see it as a springboard to a serious discussion.
Also, this site is the , primarily intended for debate/discussion of things evolution and creation. Caligula's history of contributing anything of any substance to the creation/evolution debate is thin to none. See http://http://www.evcforum.net/cgi-bin/membermsglist.cgi?action=...

By the same token,I see lots of post that equally have nothing to do with the subjects that you mentioned.I can see, however,that you are following what I post with very subjective judgement.
I beginning to feel that perhaps I'm not welcome here ?
