We'll miss you. I already do!
“All you have to do is press the “abuse” button and you can get the issue resolved.”
Nope, nasty, vicious blood libels against the Catholic faith are allowed. Even encouraged. So, vale.
My grandpa used to say, “What Sam says about Harry says more about Sam than Harry.” This is the attitude I’ve taken with the anti-Catholic bigotry. What they say about fellow Christians says more about their faith than mine (as of Easter Vigil). The Commies say, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.” This reminds me of the lack of consistent moderation on the threads, and why I should belong to a site that promotes this. If you know of sites that are like what FR used to be, please private message me.
Narses, good to see you back for a bit.
Take a look at #139, which pretty much says what I think.
Your contributions to the religion threads have been valuable over the years, as have your pings. I agree that the Religion Moderators, or at least some of them (I’ve no idea who is who) seem to love anti-Catholic bigotry.
Well, by all means come back again, and do what you can. When I say my prayers, I often put in a few words for the anti-Catholic bigots here in the Forum, hoping that God will work on them, that they will begin to get a bit uncomfortable with their bigotry, and maybe become real Christians instead of bigots. Or even convert—but that’s up to them and to God.
I spent a good deal of time working with Evangelicals while I was a college Professor. We agreed to disagree on some points, but to work together where we agreed. And, confronted by all the evils dominating America today, there is plenty to agree on, one would think. Why waste time on all this pointless bigotry? That’s not what Free Republic is about.

Speaking of "blood libel" it was a Catholic Priest that posted the following, paraphrased:
Protestants give birth to babies at Christmas time so that they can eat them.It took him a while, but he backpedaled on that with a feeble excuse.
Smokin' Joe: the open threads on the RF are not for the thin skinned. (re: 133)
Also for you:
Moderation...is so one-sided.
Both Catholics and non Catholics have that complaint.
Makes sense, RF moderation is so unbiased and fair that it causes some to go ballistic for their belief system...and against other belief systems.
