Displaying 17,551 To 17,580 Of 19,504 Comments Now, now, I’m sure her hedge fund partners keep their reserves in The Bank of Fresno. » Posted By AdLib On January 7, 2010 @ 8:53 pm I’ve just sent you a response, ever I did. » Posted By AdLib On January 8, 2010 @ 6:45 am Abby, Choicelady shared her experience and POV which admittedly differs from yours but differences of opinion should never be taken personally here. Any conversation dealing with culture and religion is by nature subjective. Each of us uses our own experiences that may indeed convince us that we recognize the way things are globally but as this conversation displays and Khirad refers to, there can be many factors, especially social and environmental, that make one’s experience unique from someone else’s in a different environment. With that in mind, and with issues such as religion and culture being as charged as they are, all members’ perspectives need to be respected and discussed here with a recognition that being affirmative about one’s own POV is not in turn being disrespectful of someone else’s. » Posted By AdLib On January 8, 2010 @ 4:54 am Cher, what a wonderful article! Trying to secure your 2010 nomination early? 😉 Just have a moment to give you props on this, will have more to add later! » Posted By AdLib On January 6, 2010 @ 1:47 pm Wow! So wonderfully vibrant! Thanks for “hanging” your and your daughter’s art on our walls! Adds so much to the place! » Posted By AdLib On January 5, 2010 @ 9:47 pm Isn’t there an enormous disconnect between the right wingers who are quick to attack the government for not protecting them from terrorism while fiercely fighting against government-run health care and gun control laws because they claim that people shouldn’t look to the government to take care of them? » Posted By AdLib On January 5, 2010 @ 12:12 pm Always feel free to start a new comment when the replies get too skinny and reach their max. I think the issue is one of human rights. For many, religion is a pillar of their identity. To pull that away from them, to cause them to even believe that they will be damned or bound for hell will do far more harm than good. It will only enrage people more. And again, I disagree that prison should be a place to psychologically harm people…even though the reality is that it is that way today. I absolutely agree, no one should be permitted to hide behind religion for committing horrendous acts. However, someone in prison would not be practicing their religion to commit acts of terror, they’re in prison. What would become troubling is the prospect of determining, prior to any evidence that one is conspiring to commit terrorism, to act preemptively to restrain or limit the practice of religion based solely on one’s opinion of whether or not it may lead to terrorism in the future. » Posted By AdLib On January 5, 2010 @ 12:08 pm The question is then should crosses be taken away from Christian prisoners? I do agree with Jan that prison was never originally intended to psychologically batter prisoners but to remove them from participating in society. What has been lost is the recognition that most prisoners will likely be out on the streets again and filling them with fury isn’t the best idea. A while back, the idea was to reform prisoners while in prison so they could return to society as productive citizens. Now it seems primarily about retribution. » Posted By AdLib On January 5, 2010 @ 11:01 am Very cool! Really like this one! Well done! » Posted By AdLib On January 5, 2010 @ 8:49 am So sorry to hear that, Emerald, all my best thoughts to you, your friend and her family. » Posted By AdLib On January 14, 2010 @ 12:31 pm The Planet God is happy! » Posted By AdLib On January 13, 2010 @ 3:56 pm Thanks to your great suggestion! » Posted By AdLib On January 13, 2010 @ 3:55 pm You sure they didn’t get the title reversed, “Fox News to Contribute to Sarah Palin.”? » Posted By AdLib On January 11, 2010 @ 11:06 am Vox Populi begins in 5 minutes! See you there: https://planetpov.com/live-events/vox-populi/ » Posted By AdLib On January 8, 2010 @ 6:52 pm Hi Vituperation, welcome to The Planet! I like the work of your daughter’s that you’ve posted, the texture of the perforations and thread along with the perspective on the woman, very nice. One of our members was just remarking the other day that we haven’t had many posts on a number of areas including art, glad you posted this and will check out your daughter’s site. Please pass along kudos to her! » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:59 pm New Planet Feature – Member Directory Jan, FYI, place the letter “v” after the “http” in a YouTube link, (“https://…”) and the software at the site will embed the video in your comment! » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 11:31 pm Thanks for the kind words. This has been our Modus Operandi from the start, to be very responsive to our members, always seeking suggestions and ideas so we can make the blogging experience here the most satisfying it can be. By bloggers, for bloggers…that’s our motto! » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 6:22 pm Indeed, one should have a global policy on never posting personally identifying info anywhere on the internet. Sincerely, Adlib Planetpov » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 1:07 pm Say what?! » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:54 pm I had nothing so I just wrote a quote that was hopefully reflective of me, “My motto is, “It is better to have blogged and lost hours of your day, than never to have blogged at all.” More descriptive Bios are good, Quotes are good, just write something that reflects who you are. » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:53 pm Well said. And may I add, there is no “groupthink” or cliques here, no ganging up on POVs that aren’t those of the majority. In fact, we highly value unique POVs here, as has been evident this week too. We want members to feel completely free to express themselves and never hesitate because their opinion may run counter to the majority of opinions on any topic. Viva la difference! » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:32 pm You said a mouthful, Spanky! As you well know, that was and continues to be the whole idea behind this site, “By bloggers, for bloggers”. » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:27 pm *blush* Thanks escrib! » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:25 pm “The crap you ordered has arrived, ma’am.” 😉 » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:24 pm Love the graphic! And thanks KQ! So much to do, so little grey matter left! » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:23 pm My pleasure, BDM! » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:21 pm Cheers back at ya, Boomer! » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:20 pm Thanks Emerald! » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:20 pm And what he said! » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:20 pm Heh! The thing is…we do have a Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/PlanetPOV/152219465752 And Twitter: http://twitter.com/PlanetPOV However, unlike some sites I could mention, they’re not meant to be part of a nefarious plot to absorb the entire lives of bloggers. They’re just part of the reality about site promotion in the current day. And members being here at The Planet as a community is far more desired than Facebook or Twitter. » Posted By AdLib On January 4, 2010 @ 12:19 pmComments Posted By AdLib
