I am very pleased that a childish argument between DinoDoc and MrFun on one of my Facebook status updates was the catalyst to bring you back here... at least for a day or whenever.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Apolyton was here before Facebook and will probably be here after it as well. It's delightfully nostalgic returning to a forum where there is actual discussion. Facebook is a means to an end, Apolyton is a community.Originally posted by Al B. Sure! View PostI saw it and thought it seemed Apolyton-like. Then I saw the screen-names. On Facebook

Sooo. What have people been up to? I've been busy growing a beard, getting a doctorate and covering my arms in tattoos. It's been a very productive few years I assure you.Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

And yes, I'm not entirely sure why identifying screen names on Facebook is so bad - at any rate it may encourage folks to take their petty squabbles to Poly rather than my page.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
