"It is not acceptable to have a religion where the alternative to faith is punishment — that's how you train dogs, not develop people."
- Deng Ming-Dao

YouTube turn ons: humour, new ideas, creativity, diversity, inclusiveness, well-thought out arguments, communication

YouTube turn offs: poor listening skills and all of its consequences

I have no belief in supernatural entities or abilities of any description, though some of the friends and family I love dearly, do. For me, differing beliefs only present a problem when those who hold them bully, suppress and persecute others, or attempt to promote the beliefs in education, law, government, employment or health.

Private messages: Please bear in mind that due to the huge number of PMs I get, and the other demands on my time, I can no longer guarantee replies. (NB. attempts to 'challenge' my videos, personal views etc. via PMs are always ignored, so please consider that before wasting your own time.)

Comments sections: From time to time, I delete comments that are repetitive / off-topic, in order to make pages more reader-friendly and relevant to anyone viewing.

Blocked users: While dissenting opinion is fine, those who abuse the comments section, leave spam, insults etc. can expect to be deleted and blocked, as can those who persistently attempt to misstate scientific knowledge to further unscientific agendas. Those who post repetitive comments may be temporarily blocked as a form of 'time out'. Again, this is to reduce the tedium for others.
