I finally got a response to my emails about another site sharing my posts on their group site (this is at least the second in not third attempt to get a reply. My THEFT OF MY WORK blog entry must have gotten their attention). Here is the email:
Hello Mary,
Thank you for reaching out.
Are you referring to the re-posting of your articles on NewHumanNewEarthCommunities WordPress?
We follow your blog on WordPress, along with many others.
If you have looked at NHNEC WordPress, you will note we share many posts from a long list of other blogs when we find the content relevant / useful to the truth movement.
If however, you do not wish the additional circulation of your blog we will unfollow your blog.
Further note: we take no credit for your work, it is simply shared to our followers and links back to your blog.
To my knowledge none of your blog work has been re-posted on NewHumanNewEarthCommunities.com.
However, should you find one of your blog posts on NHNEC.COM, kindly forward the URL link and we will have it deleted.
If you do not wish to have your blog / work shared on WordPress with others, you may wish to consider becoming a private membership blog and / or disabling the share function on WordPress.
Best,
Alex

I have not been back to their site to see if they have removed my blog entries or not. They NEVER ASKED PERMISSION to use my posts. I NEVER asked to join their group! They DO benefit by using my blog entries as my followers are tracked on their site! They do not add to my circulation!
I have NO problem with individuals sharing my blog entries if they feel they are worthy of sharing. I DO have a problem with being included in a group such as NHNE that I did not want to join or be associated with, regardless of whether I post things that they consider pertinent to their group!
Anyone wishing to use my blog entries in a format such as this New Human New Earth Communities MUST FIRST ASK permission! Otherwise I look at it as copywrite infringement.
