I feel the exact same way about writing. How much human suffering has been caused by people's ability to just read and write down anything whenever they want? There is zero accountability! Heck, nowadays, I can even make graphics on a computer and then walk into Staples and print them out on official-looking, high quality paper. And they even have the gall let me pay anonymously in cash!

In the good old days, only the Church could publish books, so everything that was written down was thoughtful and true.




Those were the days. People were good and true when they feared being burned at the stake.


If God didn't want heathens to burn, He wouldn't have made them so flammable. It's just common sense.


I smell some sarcasm in this thread.

But we are on the net so nobody knows for sure.


I just had flash backs of Reddit...


It's refreshing to see people refer to reddit in the past tense, maybe its finally dying.
