God's Politics Has Moved!
Please change your bookmarks to: www.godspolitics.com
and your RSS feeds to: http://www.sojo.net/blog/godspolitics/?feed=rss2
After two years of a blog partnership between Sojourners and Beliefnet, we're moving the God's Politics Blog in-house to the Sojourners Web site. You can still go to www.godspolitics.com which as been redirected to reach us at our new location.
Other than a new look and feel, you'll still find the latest commentary by Jim Wallis and friends "articulating the biblical call to social justice" as our Sojourners mission statment says. You will also find a few welcome changes and great new features, such as:
- More ways to access blog content, including links to posts by author, "most read," and "most commented."
- A "tag cloud" that represents the hottest topics on the blog.
- Separate RSS feeds for God's Politics, Verse and Voice of the Day, and our Daily News Digest (and more to come...)
- Advertisements that comport with Sojourners' mission and values.
And perhaps the most significant new feature of all--new comment software including a new sherriff in town: YOU!
- That's right--we're implementing peer moderation, with the ability for readers to rate comments up or down as useful or not useful. Posts that receive too many down votes (no, we're not telling you how many) will be automatically removed. We know we're asking a lot of our readers--to rate posts not on what views are expressed but on how they're expressed--but we think you're up to the task.
- Of course, you can still always "flag" abusive posts for removal by our staff if something's obviously inappropriate.
- Plus, personal profiles for each commenter with optional attributes including "avatar" images.
We hope you'll continue to enjoy reading God's Politics at its new home!

Looks like this ushers in a new wave of censorship to God's Politics. The peer review thing will be interesting. Sounds like mob-rule to me. Anyone with differing views will be eliminated. So much for "valuing diversity".
I'm sure some of the regulars are ecstatic at the thought of this new-found power to oppress dissenting views.
If I am censored into oblivion on the new site--it has been good talking to ya!
God Bless.

Can I upload my own avatar?
Peter,
I find the "regular" quite tolerant and appreciative of different points of view.

Why does this not surprise me?
I guess this website ain't big enough for a non-right-wing Christian.

My Spiritual Home, is a Private matter.
Miracles are, both Virtual surrounding Reality much better when you would care to reason on IT, To help the Communal Link up I would love to agree on something as comunal as Religion. Virtual hold me in Reverence, I came on line for the first time having been conned into Piracy. I could not wait to buy XP. What I see acknowledged by Communal Link Up, is having been part of building this Sphere in a much earlier stage, than I expected. This means also, I will never be able to trust my Home Country again where it came to giving people Education to broaden their chances on a proper job, they let Microsoft get away with a formula taken without scupeles for original designer.
God lives in ecrybodiy alive's administration.
