1. The Golden Rule applies. ("Would I say it to their face?")
2. Follow the 4:8 principle: Whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent, or praiseworthy.
3. Nothing immoral, illegal, unethical.
4. No hating. If we don't like it, we don't discuss it or are careful to focus on ideas and principles, not people.
5. No stealing. If it isn't mine, I will say to whom it belongs. Any copyrighted material used here is used only in the spirit of fair use. (Please let me know if you suspect I am in violation of copyright law.)
