Craigslist strikes adult services under pressure

Poster Comment:
Back about four years ago, Craigslist started blocking, taking down and otherwise refusing to run ads in the General category for such things a Bible studies or Bible study materials. One such ad that we ran was:
Did God really say You must be Born Again?
Send any size donation and a long self addressed stamped envelope to:
and then our address
For a full and accurate Bible study on what God says, in His book, regarding Born Again.
Craiglist claimed this violated their user agreement or one thing or another. So, I and other online Christian organizations sent e-mails to our entire list asking them to look at Craigslist in their area and anything that looked as if it violated local, county or state vice laws, should be forwarded to the appropriate AG with a note telling him or her to get to the bottom of this now or his or her replacement would after the next election.
At first Craigslist fought, now they have surrendered, so while they tried to hinder the Bible, they instead cleaned up their own site and freed it from most of the porn.
And for that I am grateful to all who took part in our campaign to rid craigslsit of porn and to at the same time flex our Christian muscle a little.

It's good to see that you Thumpers believe in individual freedoms,and like so many of you claim,I was wrong when I said you would try to demand everybody live according to your cult beliefs.

If there's a market for it, it will be there, and you can't stop it.
Worry about your own congregation.

As long as I am touting the ChristianPatriot.com horn, go to www.ChristianPatriot.com/search. htm and put Psalm 109 in the search box and see where the idea came from.

#13. To: Lord Vader (#7) I'm afraid you miss the point, the point is that had the prono people left us alone, had the smut people left us alone, then we would not have gone after them.
Go back and read the ad I had submitted for ACP, had they, the forces of hate, not gone after it, not pushed CL to ban it, we would never have gone after them. How can I say that? Well no one but no one uses the ACP mailing list without my approval.

Where will all the phony born again christians get their hot gay sex hookups? The same place they get forgiveness for it,at church. See how that works? Nothing they do is their fault because "de debbil made me do it!"
Think "Celestial Affirmative Action for Thumpers". The Big Ranger in the Sky is going to forgive them for anything they do because they kiss his ass.

Of course the pro-porn people miss that point. They're too busy whining about the 4 millionth outlet for freaky hook-ups. And everyone knows Jerry Falwell and the "Christian Taliban" run the internets.

#24. To: BobCeleste (#0) I'm totally baffled by anyone who uses these sites in any way to give out names, photos, personal information. Do you really get much of a response from Craig's List? I would never give you personal information on that site, even if the product or service offered is interesting. JMOH <^..^>

Btw, you may refer to God as, "King of King and Lord of Lords," thank you.

I may actually hate this guy more than yuktard and Mad Dog. He'd have been just fine accepting the porno postings (and probably surfing them, with the 'rod of god' in the left hand) if they'd given the Christers equal time.
Pete has these people nailed dead solid cold and as always, there's Luberator, happily and proudly missing the entire point since 1997.

Then I missed the point as well. I agree with liberator on this one.
"Every Person born within the limits of the United States, and subject to their jurisdiction, is by virtue of natural law and national law a citizen of the United States. This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons.

That first part wasn't Luberator. He's fine with the censorship and took it down a non-sequitur rabbit hole about free speech and NAMBLA.
Plainly put, Luberator's a douche. He's wrong by default simply because of that.

Yeah, and a sanctimonious, self-righteous hypocritical prick. Every time divabetsyross flips her tail up and sprays the area with her "I'm redeemed because I'm better than you and Jesus knows that, but christians can drink smoke, have tattoos (I have two), and enjoy lots of sex" shtick, Lib's always there with his nose up and his tongue out. I think they have a cyber deal off site. Not that there's anything wrong w/ that...
His arrogance is only magnified by the fact that he's never right. Ever. He's on the wrong side of everything.

Even so people can still post ads for sensual massage. Striking the adult listings just make things harder on legitimate massage therapists trying to make their way in this world. It darn sure ain't gonna stop the worlds oldest profession.

No, it won't slow it down much. I didn't see any mention of Bob's group in the article, nor did Bob mention the 17 state attorneys general who actually brought the pressure, Maine batshit crazy fundy fake-triots notwithstanding.
It has been my experience with attorneys general that they are a bunch of prudish old busybodies with lots of skeletons in the closet.

I've attended every cub scout meeting my son endured, and never once saw a priest. I was a cub scout, and then a Boy Scout, and never saw priests unless they were way up front on the stage where I could barely make out their face.
The analogy fails. LULZ denied.
