If anyone has forgotten, there are some broad guidelines that I posted several months back about blog comments.

Please read them and follow them.

The vitriol and lack of charity lately has become — to use a word — insidious. I don’t want to start censoring comments, or deleting them. But if I have to, I will. Things to avoid: personal attacks, childish tantrums, name-calling, or otherwise hateful screeds.  (It doesn’t matter what your political leanings might be — I’m seeing this from all persuasions, and it’s getting to be a bit much…)  

Thank you for your cooperation, and for endeavoring to keep the discussion both civil and sane.

Deacon Greg
