New Disqus Comments plugin
In a nutshell I want people to be able to leave comments without me having to "approve" them - they appear immediately. But I also want to keep out spam. The anti-spam module for some reason was marking all comments - including my own - as spam. I have since added the Disqus plugin which hopefully will allow anyone with a free Disqus account to be able to leave comments that appear immediately. So far it appears to be working nicely.-

Why we continue to converse with conservative Christians
That is a horrible title for this post – but it alliterates! What is weird is that among Southern Baptists I am a liberal heretic. Among Anglicans I am a rabid right wing conservative. It just depends which classroom I … Continue reading
