    Default I had to Add a New Rule...

    12. No posing... Read up folks. I forgot about this one from the other site. That was not fun...
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    I agree this rule is necessary.
    "Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." (Matthew 3:2)

    REPENT AMERICA!

    Psalm 9:17 Warning:
    "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God."

    I hate to keep adding to them, but there is another new rule...

    No Self-Moderation.
