The hell it is.  Stating that one doesn't know whether the contents of one's post is 
true or not does NOT say
anything about if one ENDORSES the contents of the post.  One can post something that 
one doesn't know is true
or not -- or perhaps even knows is a lie -- and still endorse the opinions expressed 
in the post.

I could forward a post to the list from someone who says they work for the government 
and have proof that
outer space aliens have taken over the highest offices of government.  I may know that 
the person who wrote
the original post is lying, and doesn't work for the gov't nor have any 'proof' of 
outerspace aliens working
in the government or at Burger King...but if I BELIEVE that outerspace aliens exist 
and have infiltrated our
gov't, then I may feel the issues raised in the post warrant forwarding it on, even 
tho I know it is a
'lie'...

And if I put a statement at the beginning saying "I don't know if this is true or 
not", it doesn't mean I
disagree with the contents of the post...

Kris and I had a very pleasant phone chat the other day when he was in town, and he 
didn't express any opinion
that he thought anyone was 'decimating' the list...

You are an idiot.

Explain to me how perpetuating a LIE regarding the supposed rise in spousal abuse 
following the Super Bowl
furthers the cause of women in general, and abused women in particular?

Rather, if you encourage the spreading of the myth of Super Bowl causing increased 
spousal abuse, you do a
great disservice to the true cause of helping women, because you discredit the whole 
field.

As it said in the Super Bowl post, there is no logic in the sentiment that 
perpetuating the LIE regarding
Super Bowl = increased spousal abuse will do ANYTHING to further the cause of helping 
abused women.

You assume that I:

 a)  have not worked at abuse shelters myself, and

 b)  that I myself have not been a victim of abuse, and

 c)  that I don't currently have a problem with (ongoing) abuse/stalking...

God help them.  If anyone was so totally unqualified to moderate such a list, it is 
you...
