Why was Atheist Nexus down?

The main page has no explanation for the one day outage. Were we hacked? Was Ning malfunctioning?

I find it curious that trying to reload the page, having got the error message, simply got me the error message again. I guess what one needs to do is try again via a bookmark.

I just now realized the site has been up for at least 15 hours, because I got an update in E-mail with a link that worked.

One trick - don't just press the Reload Page button when you get the "Error 500" display, because it WILL, indeed, just reload the error page. I made that mistake myself.

Thanks for the explanation. I think it is a compliment they want to take us down. Maybe our message is getting across. Wish we could take them all down. Wonder if the Pope has awakened. I understand Mother Teresa had serious doubts in her last years.

I don't think I'd WANT the Ratman on my side. Though I wouldn't mind it if he confessed his crimes.

"Awakened"? That's and interesting thought, Lillie, but I don't give the pope that much credit. He has too much hatred and bigotry to be non-religious. He has some serious de-converting to do before we can recommend that he meet with "The Clergy Project."."
