I can no longer sustain the level of activity needed to run SoylentNews, and so I have resigned as leader.
In the end, I was literally begging people to step back and let the site "just run" for a few days while I caught up... alas, to no effect. Issues must be resolved "right here and right now" continuously throughout my day with no end in sight.
NCommander has taken over as project lead - he has access to everything from the registrar down. I understand he has a different vision for the project, which will soon be revealed.
I'm sorry to leave like this, but there's really nothing for it. I'm going back to my AI studies, which happen at a more leisurely pace.

Why? Just because it quotes the bible? Note that the quoted text does not even claim the idea being coming from god, but from Moses' father in law. So yes, independent of what you think of the bible or religion, the text documents that people had that idea already in ancient times (I think there's no question that the bible texts are old), because someone must have had the idea back then, or it could not have been written down.

Soylent news is Moses?
