Get a free read of one of the best Conservative web sites on the net, but keep your opinions to yourself if you aren't willing to help support it, cheapskate!

Telling people what to do puts a dent in FRiendship across the board.

This is not a private club [with admission dues] yet, however, it's been discussed on the boards.

I have read this thread completely, and there are a number of other "cheapskates" (as you refer to them) who said not another dime to Free Republic, until they clean up the religion forum, and they are not all Catholics. I would encourage anyone who has interest in the health of this site, to read these entries.

My daughter once told me when she was only four years old, and this was during a time I was suffering daily for years with dis-ease: "Maybe if you'd listen harder to what Jesus is trying to tell you, you'd feel better."

I was going to cut and paste exact posts from y'all, because all have abbreviated posts from one another, but decided to not waste the bandwidth.

I'm sorry to be repetitious, but like I've already said, I go out of my way to avoid the RF because I see more nastiness and hatred expressed here, and allegedly all in the name of “debate”....”whose church/religion trumps the others, whose scripture is factual, whose religion is a cult, and who's going to Hell.”

It's really a shame that the RF can't be blocked from appearing on the latest comments page, because that way those of us who wish to avoid it would never have to see a comment that "baits." Easy peasy to ignore an article listed on the latest article's page.

As for “keeping your opinions to yourself if you're not willing to support Free Republic,” which boatbums posted, with which mlizzy and Brian Kopp DPM took issue for their valid reasons, I can only say that Free Republic is solely funded by our membership and if the day comes that we can no longer reach our monetary goals/needs, Jim will shut it down, so it's really up to all of us whether we want Free Republic or not.

My choice is easy. Like boatbums, I love FR, so I am a Monthly Donor. My only regret is that this RF has hardened my heart by changing my view of some people I previously thought I knew.

Peace be with you all.
