I’ve tried to be tolerant but am becoming rather sick of the continual drip, drip, drip pushing Catholic doctrine on what is ostensibly a “news” forum

Now you feel it necessary to post anti-protestant propaganda and I’ve had about enough of it.

Pull this thread and stop doing it now, out of basic respect if for no other reason. Just who do you think you are?

"Catholic doctrine on what is ostensibly a “news” forum"

My friend, this is a Religion Forum.

I agree that there is a lot of Catholic doctrine pushing on the religion forum. (I am Catholic myself).

However, posting is voluntary and reading what is posted is voluntary.

It just happens that there are a few Catholics who post a lot.
Every single day. The fact that they are enthusiastic and consistent doesn’t mean that there can’t be posters of other faiths and views.

I’ve learned a lot about other faiths on the religion forum, as well. I don’t know where else in my daily life I would see so much from evangelicals, Lutherans, Anglicans, Orthodox, and Mormons. The one thing I am missing is that I think there used to be more Jewish articles posted when I started lurking a couple of years ago.

This is a religion forum, Lloyd. I’m glad you’re trying to be tolerant, seriously, I am. What might help you be more tolerant - and keep your cool - is to avoid those threads that would annoy you.

“Now you feel it necessary to post anti-protestant propaganda and I’ve had about enough of it.”

Okay. Throw a tantrum. Break some household goods. Feel better yet? I have read anti-Catholic LIES here for years. It just comes with the territory. Pray for patience and don’t let it bother you.

“Pull this thread and stop doing it now, out of basic respect if for no other reason. Just who do you think you are?”

He thinks he’s a devout Catholic who is bit-by-bit posting a wonderful classic apologetics work from the 1930s or 40s. And that’s what he is and that’s what he’s doing.

For you to demand he pull the thread and demand to know who he is, is, just a bit off don’t you think? It’s a free forum. He’s not violating any rules. Don’t side with the liberals and demand he take his faith out of the public square just because it offends you. He ain’t hurtin’ nobody.

I’m not sure you realize that you can see the news threads without seeing the Religion Forum threads. I’m asking the Religion Moderator to help you.
