You are wasting your time. Ansell is content to accept the liberal media’s definition of “Catholic” because it serves a greater purpose for him in attacking the Catholic Church. I am trying to help him confront the issue that motivates his behavior.

Look Ansell, I see how you’ve conceded my point and moved on to another example. Everything that I said was correct, of course.

But realize that I am doing you a disservice in playing along with your mania. I apologize, and will try to make a better effort to stick to the urgent facts. They are:

You log onto this website every day, seek out threads relating to Catholicism –sometimes related to significant news stories, sometimes not.

On these threads, you get into heated, but ultimately unresolved debates with a different stranger, who you can’t see and will never meet.

You spend a great deal of time doing this, day after day, and have been doing so for years.

All of that work on your part has accomplished exactly nothing.

This picture fits nicely with the quote incorrectly attributed to Einstein “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome.” He denied saying it, but it is nevertheless rational.

My point is this: Life is short, and you are wasting it. Your behavior should disturb you. You clearly enjoy trolling thread on anonymous political forums. If you prefer to waste yours in this fashion, you could be accomplishing far more by doing so on a moderate forum. Get in touch with what, exactly, it is that bothers you about Catholicism (newsflash: It’s not voting patterns), and put it to rest.

This is just a suggestion. If you prefer to waste your life alienating those who otherwise agree with you on a point that they will and can never concede, so be it. It’s depressing of course, but it’s your life to waste

Remember that the vote decides the law, and immigration decides the vote.

I guess you’re right. I’ve been here a long time and run across any number of serious crazies on FR. A shame, really.
