There is a link to send email at the bottom of this page but please
read this first:
I am quite willing to debate with people who disagree with me but I
do not appreciate receiving unsolicited ten thousand word essays full
of questions, keep your first message down to a reasonable size.
Please don't send me anything on the lines of read
this book and get wise. Make your own case if you think I am wrong.
I assume all material submitted may
be published at my discretion.
If you do not want any part
of your message published
DON'T SEND IT.
The site is very busy and attracts a lot of response.
I can no longer guarantee to respond to all emails.
To reduce the build-up of email I would like to point out that I
will not respond to the following types of message:-
One paragraph requests for detailed descriptions of my views,
especially when such information is clearly available to be discovered
by looking around on the site.
Off-the-record complaints and criticisms. If you do not want
your message published don't send it because I will just ignore it.
I do not publish all email I receive, much of it is too dull, but I
do not have the time to engage in debates that could never be published.
If there are parts of your message (personal details) that you do
not want publishing then enclose those parts in square brackets, I
will always remove such details if they are marked up in that way.
If you want the whole message not to be published I will simply delete
the message as soon as I see such a request. Do not waste your time writing something
that will not be read.
Requests to answer questions that look suspiciously like homework
assignment essay questions, especially if they come complete with
deadlines!
Comments about something I didn't write. Check carefully
who wrote what you are responding to. The author's name should be clearly
displayed at the top of the page. Only if no author is specified can
you conclude that I (Martin Willett) wrote it.
There is a visual clue that works across the whole site, only my words
appear as black on white, other writers' words appear in different
colour combinations.
Messages from people whose emails are too illiterate, incoherent
or unhinged to merit a reply.
Before berating me with the seventeenth repetition of the same point
search to see whether your point has been made before.
I have been doing this for over eight years, if you are a Christian
the chance that you have got some profound new idea that I have never
had thrust at me before is practically nil.
Please note that this site contains
over 700 articles
by many
different authors,
on a huge variety of subjects
written over a period of nine years
please make it clear which
page or pages you are responding to.
Please sign all email with a name you are comfortable
with being published.
Do not assume that just because you have gone
to the trouble of writing a few words to me that you somehow deserve a
reply.
If you wish to give your real name as well I will not
publish small portions of your message enclosed in square brackets.
If you want to express your support I strongly recommend The
Pin-Board
