Can we please move the deluge of Catholic-related articles out of news/activism?

This morning, as has been the case for weeks now, over half of the articles have been about Catholic church inside baseball. While I'm sure that is of interest to some, it merely squeezes out stuff that is more interesting to others. While I appreciate the importance of the topics to a few, let's keep in mind that it is not at all to others. I don't want to start a flame war but the nuances of some Latin-named paper by some unknown cardinal in a village in Germany (just a hyperbolic example) are wholly unimportant to this good old Protestant. There is a specific forum for discussion of religion.

And as a Freemason, I could do without being told I'm an evil heretic that's destined for eternal damnation.

This really isn't the place for religious debate and proselytizing, except to discuss religion in the context of political persecution.

I see your point...

. I think it has made Free Republic appear as a Roman Catholic website instead of a Pro-God, Pro-life, Pro-family, Pro-America one.

Remember a half decade ago?

FR was looking mighty MORMON at that time!

I’m not the one starting every other thread on the inside dealings of my church.

Take the hint. Please post your articles somewhere more appropriate.

FYI, you can help also if you choose. Hit the abuse button
and ask the Moderator to put the thread over in the Religion
Forum. They can do that if deemed necessary.

1) It’s not pollution. 2) Skip over the articles. It isn’t hard. Man up.

****************

Not that I’m aware of. However you can set your browser to show Xnumber,
250 max per page I think, and then count pages going backwards.

Yep you beat me by ten days. Put your cursor over the
poster name on a thread and it gives the sign up date.

It’s like you’re my neighbor who blasts his stereo at all hours, then tells me when I complain, “Ehh, don’t listen to it.”

I don’t see it. Maybe if you were to list some examples?
