Spam - an escalating set of responses to spam

I haven't checked what the real etiquette is, but I think it should be... You send the spam through to the person's email and include the covering note: "Do you mind if I send you emails now and then on this Religious / Funny / Feminist / Racist / Political theme?" Then I can politely answer... "No thanks." Then, you must create a Distribution List (people who don't know how to create Distribution Lists should not be sending out spam) that excludes my address. From now on I send no spam without a covering letter - and you know we have all done it.

This is the advice I would give someone receiving spam: "Reply on the email and say, "No thanks". If they send it again, "I said.... No thanks." If they send it again, "Did you not fucking hear me?... No thanks." If they send it again, "I have put a filter on your email address that will return anything you send me with a reply that say, "I SAID, "NO FUCKING THANKS" YOU MORON, NOW STOP IT OR I WILL MAKE THIS FUCKING NOTE LONGER AND INCLUDE THE WORD FUCKING AT LEAST ANOTHER DOZEN TIMES"... A S S H O L E.

Note to Spam Filterers - Mail and Outlook both will send this nasty note, but interestingly, Gmail doesn't give us the option. I guess Google works in mysterious ways to keep us sweet and nice and civilized... google swoon.

Richard Dawkins on militant atheism

Dawkins has become outspoken in his atheism , coining the word "bright" (as an alternate to atheist), and encouraging fellow non-believers to stand up and be identified. intelligent design is creationism redressed creationists are right that evolution is hostile to evolution statistical improbability of the complexity of design - intelligent design but the intelligent designer wouldn't have made such a hash - why would the designer be bothered with disapproving of our sex lives, favor our side in the war Dawkins suggest rocking the boat - attack religion as a whole taboo of speaking ill about religion - Douglas Adams said, sacred ideas at the heart of religion, holy cows, you can support any operating system you want, but the challenge of religious ideas is off limits science and religion are corrosive to each other - religious explanations are trivial and improbably, teaches people to accept authoritarianism takes the example of famous scientists and imagines ...

Mary Daly explains the pejoration (of one) of the words related to women

Of Death and Conscience: Brief thoughts on gender role and the values of the dominant culture in medicine : "“Under the influence of the Church and the newly formed male-dominated medical establishment, the word “witch,” which originally meant “wise one,” became a term of scorn. It took a reign of terror lasting several hundred years to radically alter a way of life thousands of years old. Millions of women who carried the healing lineage were systematically killed (see The Church and the Second Sex by Mary Daly).”"

VHEMT (Vehement) is a anti-procreation movement

"Here's a novel idea to save the planet: Remove the main cause of its woes - homo sapiens. The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement (VHEMT - pronounced "vehement") proposes the phasing out the human race. "When every human chooses to stop breeding, Earth's biosphere will be allowed to return to its former glory, and all remaining creatures will be free to live, die, and evolve (if they believe in evolution)," offers the movement's website. But 'it's going to take all of us going'." See www.vhemt.org SOURCE: Email invite. I thought I was the only one who thought like this. Everyone I know thanks the universe that I didn't study microbiology. I would have developed a human-specific killer virus. WE are the vermin.
