xPost from LGBT: Homophobic Harlem Pastor's Church up for Auction over Unpaid Debts

Best news I've heard this week!

HARLEM — The church that thinks "Jesus would stone homos" is scheduled to be put up for public auction next month because its pastor hasn’t paid his debts.

A state judge ordered Atlah Worldwide Church to be sold at a public foreclosure auction after failing to pay creditors more than $1.02 million, court records show.

The Rev. James Manning said in a phone conversation with DNAinfo New York that the foreclosure was mostly over unpaid water and sewage bills and vowed to fight the order, claiming his church’s tax exempt status means he doesn’t have to pay.

“I assure you, it’s about a water bill and a tax that can’t be levied against this church,” Manning said. “I think it’s a land grab quite frankly.”

I think it should take fewer hidden posts to temporarily stop posting privileges if you arent a paid

member. Paid/contributing members are invested in the success of the website and I think the additional privilege is appropriate.

And I think the algorithm is already built into DU. If your chance of serving on a jury goes to zero, you lose posting privileges. I know there are other things that figure into that algorithm and that's fine. A contributing member who posts frequently would then get the benefit of the five hides and others would get less than that.
