I will see whether or not I get annoyed again. If I come home from work and find out I have to waste my time cleaning up a mess I might have to go back to not allowing comments.
Unlike many blogs you won't have to type something to prove you're a human. I think that's unnecessary bullshit.
There is no comment moderation but if you're an asshole or if you write something I think is inappropriate, the comment gets vaporized.
You might be surprised at what I think is inappropriate. For example, even though I frequently use vulgar language (for example "creationists are fucking idiots") that doesn't necessarily mean I want to see that language in the comments.
To avoid sock puppets, also known as people who use more than one internet name on the same blog, I'm only allowing comments from people with google accounts (which are easy to get if you want one).
Comments are welcome at all posts (there's almost 1,000 posts on this blog). I will get an email when a comment appears. I might write a reply or I might ignore it or I might vaporize it. If my reply says something like "fuck off and die retard" that's a hint for you to not bother me again. Please take the hint.
Censorship is a bad thing and I will try to avoid it, but I'm not going to tolerate excessive stupidity and other things I don't like.
Maybe nobody will write a comment. That would be fine with me.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne

Either permanently or temporarily, I am allowing comments again.
