Well, I was going to suggest that we not wait to be "exiled," but
simply pick up and move over to FFL2. The ugly threatening tone of
Doug's recent posts suggests that we don't have any voice in the
matter; he's clearly not interested in entertaining dissent.
Remember, Doug is the owner of FFL, and if he wants to turn it into a
forum that Rick and those of us who have been here for years wouldn't
recognize or find appealing, that's his prerogative. His recent post
indicates that he's huddling with anonymous folks who have apparently
never participated in FFL, so their concerns don't reflect ours.
(If the name "FairfieldLife Freer Speech" is claimed to infringe on
the "FairfieldLife" brand name so as to preclude our using that forum
for discussions that don't conform to Doug's ideas about isolating
spirituality from the rest of human experience, I'm sure Alex would be
willing to change the name.)
*More likely Yahoo is the owner not Doug. It's probably in the terms of
service. Doug would just be considered "responsible" for it. It's a
"rights" issue and often part of these kinds of services. Or basically
attorneys on steroids creations.

Most of us who are discussing politics are not "trolling," and it's
insulting to suggest otherwise.
Political discussions are "without spiritual context" only if you put
spirituality in a box and wall it off from the rest of human
experience. Rick realized this, and chose not to build such walls.
That's why he didn't limit discussion topics in any way (other than to
exclude pornography).
It looks like we (the non-spiritual cretins that we are) may be exiled
off to FFL-2 if this keeps up...

I am appreciating the comments here about the group.
The trolling of mundane subject threads here posted and! scrolling
ticker-tape style down the subject line with first lines of posts like
one can read on news feeds most anywhere, but on FFL, a spiritual
Yahoo-group, they often do seem to abuse the freedom of what Yahoo
provides us as a group. .
While being entertained by most any and all of content posted here on
FF yet as a responsible member here I am looking at several who have
long method in trolling the site with offered material that is quite
without spiritual context, evidently unrelated to FFL, a spiritual
Yahoo-group. Yahoo asks us for moderation. I have relied on
membership to self-contain themselves in a moderation according to an
inherent civility entailed the Yahoo-groups guidelines as the means of
community here. Most have been able to write quite well within what is
given to us as the Yahoo-groups guidelines. Those guidelines do
provide really quite wide margins for expression.. Yahoo Groups
