I wonder if you noticed. I removed my BlogHer Ads and Savvy Source ads in the sidebar and I’ll tell ya why.
BlogHer had some ad campaign on there about “Are you mistress material?” or some such. Not at all the kind of thing I want to promote. I know they’ll let me pick and choose which ads to allow on my blog but it’s not so easy to tell how a thing is going to be advertised. Anyway, that was enough of a shock for me to look at my blog and see something blatantly promoting the concept of infidelity in a cutesy kind of way. Gone.
So, while I was sitting here pondering those thoughts after having removed the BlogHer ad I realized that I had been seeing a Savvy Source ad whose grabber line was “Is spanking always wrong?” I don’t know how I had seen that so many times here on my blog and not realized that I have a responsibility for what is presented here. And that line doesn’t present a Biblical perspective at all. Gone.
There is a certain freedom that I’ve regained when I took off the BlogHer ad. I can allow anyone I want to post here on my blog. And I can post my own advertisements for any of the several companies I have affiliate accounts with. Don’t run away! I won’t be doing it all the time, but now I can, and when there’s something worth crowing about I will.
Now, with those ads gone, I have lots of free space in the sidebar. Thought I might put a blogroll. Wanna be on it? Pipe up! Just say so in the comments! :D

I would love to be on your blog roll, I check your blog daily!
I’d love to be on your blog roll if you’ll have me.
And for the record, though I’ve got to admit that I pay little to no attention to what’s on the side bar unless I’m looking for something I’ve read before and want to see again, I apreciate the fact that you took it upon yourself to eliminate those things which go against your conscience. .
Good for you Mother! Go ahead and add me to the blog roll. I really do need to start posting again.
Thank you. I noticed those ads, and am delighted with your choice to remove them.
Thanks for having me on your blogroll! I need to take the time to make one on my blog. I so appreciate them on others’.

Good for you! I find it amazing that they’d be advertising that sort of stuff. I was half toying with the idea of looking into BlogHer, but not anymore!
