You seem to be forgetting the daily squatting and mocking FRoman Catholics rife on these threads. Not unexpected. Tell you what, when FRoman Catholics start their OWN website to compete with Free Republic, you can censure and prequalify anyone to your heart's desire. Then you won't have anything to complain about when people who don't buy into your version of Christianity defend their beliefs and stand up to what they see as a false and accursed gospel. Until then, you'll have to obey the rules here like everyone else and not backtalk the Religion Moderator when all he/she is trying to do is keep threads from launching into flame wars. Funny, how not only are the majority of Religion Forum threads posted BY Roman Catholics, they sure seem to make up the most of the whining and moaning comments attacking the RM for perceived bias whenever their making it personal comments get dinged!
There IS a solution! Either stay off OPEN Religion Forum threads if you cannot bear reading opposing views or go somewhere else. The Religion Mods put up with a LOT and they deserve respect. JR couldn't pay me enough to do it! We non-Caths have just as much right to post here as y'all do. Lump it or leave it.

Since I first posted this thread there have been at least 5-7 calls to have it pulled by catholics.
Why?
That tells me they don't want this false doctrine of worshipping Mary to be challenged. After reading the responses for the "defense" of this I can see why they don't want it challenged. Let's just say they've been less than convincing.
I have to remind them this is FREE REPUBLIC. If you don't want your beliefs questioned hide behind the caucus thread.
I for one have learned a lot from these open discussions.
