I give you my snarky synopsis.

Poster1: Dogs! Dog health! *shares valuable information* Oh yeah, and Jesus! Jesus Jesus Jesus!
Poster2: Dogs! Bible verses! Jesus!
Anonymous Posters: *e-mail mod, please can you do something about the Jesus*
Mod: Please stop with the Jesus. This list is about dogs.

Hahaaa!

This is eerily similar to the "Fight BSL Workshop" groups. 99% of the postings are scripture and sermon, .5% are list moderators talking about how they hate the local AC for not picking up the dying cat that was hit by a car and is laying in their yard (that they refuse to help, even if just to have euthanized) and how it's a person's GOD GIVEN RIGHT to breed and own whatever they want, and the last .5% may be an announcement of yet another town, city or county in the US that passed BSL. Maybe.

And Jesus spake unto the multitudes, and said, "STOP TRYING TO DRAG THE FORKING LISTS OFF TOPIC YOU NUTJOBS. For you will convert no one to my cause, but instead make them all think we are whackos with no common sense."

agreed. I ended up leaving a anti-BSL group because the only things I was getting in my inboxes were scriptures.

Hell, I found out more about BSL close to my area by googling and watching news than I did in that group.

Course, it probably doesn't help that I'm in the Bible Belt...

Exactly. And honestly, not everyone is Christian anyway. I'm used to hearing about Christianity, but I don't like having it essentially forced onto me. With the wording on some of the posts in said anti-BSL group, that's exactly what it was. And it was daily scriptures. By the mod of the group, I believe, or one of the people who helped run it.

All of the workshop groups were like that. It was rather disappointing. The list owners were the ones sending out all te scripture and sermon, and talking about god given rights to breeding and owning, while simultaneously doing nothing about the BSL problem. One of the women who owns the group, and the one who is, by far, the craziest, is in Washington and breeds American Staffordshires.
