Re: The Anonymous in Religious Music
VT, it's not only atheists. His rant on the abortion thread showed that he has a hatred for anyone with a differing opinion. I assume there must be some theist who respects the choice of a woman. So it is not only about atheists. It is about anyone who disagrees with him.vegetariantaxidermy wrote: His hatred for atheists oozes out of practically everything he posts, and he thinks no one notices.
Re: The Anonymous in Religious Music
Seems to me that the red curtain has come down for you and now you'd rather fight to get your own way than talk about the topic. Heh. It would have been so easy for you simply to answer me normally and then a chat might have followed. You could so easily not reply to foes and follow conversations you enjoy.Nick_A wrote:Greta, leave it alone . The thread is dead. There is no way in this atmosphere that the question of perfection in art and in this case music as it relates to the anonymous in art, can be discussed. It was a nice try IMO and useful for artists but impossible to continue. The thread is dead and should be deleted and time to go back to the usual including the insults.
As a mod on another forum, do you know what I do with members who treat me like a serf there to take "customer" instructions?

Personally, I wouldn't mind talking about the anonymous in music. I'm a fan of music with strong instrumental focus specifically for the beauty of wordless expression:

Re: The Anonymous in Religious Music
It isn’t a matter of me being important but if the demand to remove the thread is. I see that the request thread has been deleted and this thread is still here. No email and just the middle finger salute. OK, that is what I wanted to know. Does management condone and encourage open intolerance, intimidation and abuse by a group of posters against whatever they don’t understand or do they support posters remaining within the terms of service? It is clear that they support this group of posters and their attempts at intolerance, intimidation, and abuse against what they don’t understand. No good can come from a mindset that blames others of what they are guilty of. No one with a mind and a heart whose families have been part of the Holocaust, the Armenian genocide, or other genocides, can tolerate a mindset that openly justifies abuse by accusing others of hatred and evil. Hitler did this against the Jews and I know what the Turks said about the Armenians. Those like Doc prefer to kiss their ass regardless of all the harm this attitude has caused. I won’t do it and since the mods condone this behavior obviously I have to leave and delete my posts on this thread. This site will only be useful to post “Yo momma sucks.” That is all such a condoned attitude of attempted intimidation and abuse deserves. I’ll go over to a site called onlinephilosophyclub and post the thread over there. I will then begin a thread called: “Do You Value Ideas” in which I will explain what goes on here. I’ll quote Prof. Jacob Needleman And Simone Weil on the value of supporting and encouraging keeping ideas which open the minds and hearts of Man alive. Hopefully all will go well and I can support onlinephilosophy with meaningful threads as I have done here with with this one and others on the Religion board. There is nothing more to say. The mods have won. Intolerance, intimidation, and abuse of meaningful ideas is now dominant. Enjoy.Greta wrote: Seems to me that the red curtain has come down for you and now you'd rather fight to get your own way than talk about the topic. Heh.

Re: The Anonymous in Religious Music
Hello Nick. As I understand your writing, you accurately state the purpose of the forum. If you do a search on the words “philosophy now,” you will soon find an article where the host says as much as what you say.Nick_A wrote:Does management condone and encourage open intolerance, intimidation and abuse by a group of posters against whatever they don’t understand or do they support posters remaining within the terms of service?
I see this as a self-leveling philosophy. Where does the tone of an unmoderated forum trend? The tone can trend one of two ways. To yes, or no. Which one grows? The one you feed, the one that gets fed sometimes too much resulting in dulled complacency.
It’s not because people say so. That’s just the way of the world.
This is so obvious and you are too intelligent to not see it, so to look more closely at why is not necessary, for under the circumstances (no moolah) attempting to logic it out more closely naturally moves into imagination and projection of one’s own limited known, the monkey mind path. Under the circumstances, just taking things the way they are falls under the custodial responsibilities of attention allotment.
BTW, custodians in NYC who are protected by a union with standards demanded by a union make an amazing salary and have amazing qualifications for what they do. Check it out. Trump is from NYC and works in cooperation with unions. Very high standards. In some places, the union label still means quality and craftsmanship.

See you there, Nick, quite a few of us are also members of that site so you'll be among friends. Just a word of warning: They are not so tolerant of bad behaviour over there so you will need to tone it down a bit.Nick_A wrote:I’ll go over to a site called onlinephilosophyclub and post the thread over there.

But he could moderate his own threads, the Mods have said how.thedoc wrote:...
The problem is that I do understand forums and how they function, and I am willing to work within the system. I'm not a crusader out to buck the system and change it, if there is a discussion worth having, let it go on and ignore those who would derail the topic. You can't seem to let go of the naysayer's and get on with the topic, you seem to be obsessed with arguing with them even when they have nothing to say. So be it, if you can't be bothered to respond to comments on the topic, but insist on whining about those who would derail the thread, so be it. If your true intention is to change the system and exclude those who add nothing to the conversation, you're on your own, because I am happy with the forum as it is. The disruptive and abusive comments can be quite amusing at times, and I can enjoy a bit of levity even when I'm trying to be serious.
