: Hello everybody.

: The blackhole forum is receiving messages concerning god and science. I welcome these comments, but must say they are out of place.

: Thus, I made this forum so all of you can continue discussion of this riviting topic. It is not often I start a forum on a new topic, but this one seems important to many.

: Here are the rules:

: No profanity (remember, we have a young audience reading these pages)

: No personal attacks during point-counterpoint arguments.

: Include references if possible (Bible, papers, historical documents, etc.)

: Express yourself, but please do not condemn any person or group.

: Be Polite.

: This forum, as all on The Astronomy Net, updates automatically. However, you can consider this a moderated forum in that I will delete any message I feel does not belong. I will also delete very old messages and have little response.

: I do have my own thoughts on this forum topic, but I will be very fair and open minded before I hit the delete key. Really.

: So there you have it. I hope to read some interesting posts in the future.

: Sincerely,

: John : Your host.

I though I would take a little time and say thank you for creating and maintaining these forums, although you should place a warning label "Caution: these forums may become addictive or expand your mind." Is this part of a business venture, revenue from advertisers or do you do it just for personal reasons? :)
