The errancy list is not a "site", something found only on the web, but is a *mailing list*, something that preceded the web by many years. This list is unmoderated, meaning uncensored, meaning free expression in all its forms, including profanities and obscenities for emphasis. The purpose of this list, not a site, is to poke fun at those Christians who believe the Bible is without serious error. The discussions on this list, not site, are either foolish or irrational, or often both. There is nothing whatever of any seriousness ever discussed on this list, not site. It's a place for ridicule and harangue, not information. The language of the list owner, Till, a former college instructor, not professor as he often implies, is just as bad as that of anyone else. If you're not ready to play with the grown-ups, then seek your sexual thrills elsewhere, since those here get their kicks from knocking the Bible and Christians, mentally fucking those who don't resist. This is a macho kind of place devoted only to kicking ass. But once in a while a grown up does happen along and swats some of the dirty little butts hanging out here. If their parents had done a better job of raising children, it might not be as necessary. But then most of the regulars here seem to have no idea who their father was, or even who their ancestors were.
