there are lots of folks who crawl out of the woodwork when they can post anonymously on the web.

There have been several studies on the removal of inhibitions and false sense of power it gives some folks.

My point is this:

if you would stand up in a bar and tell someone Catholic or protestant that you disagree with him to his face then you have no cajones.

talk is cheap especially from the anonymous prot peanut gallery

First time I've ever seen anyone on FR make the assertion you have regarding coming to a bar and having this conversation or hiding on the web.

I notice you too have a screen name.....you hiding? You're screen name suggests you do!

Btw.....I do have these conversations with people face to face. They don’t usually last this long as some get mad and leave. The ‘net does enable them to continue a bit longer.

This, from a man(?) who only posts under the name "LurkingSince'98". Alcohol, served to groups in a bar, removes inhibitions. Soup, not so much.

Sir, hanging out in bars and picking fights is not good Christian living.

Nor is provoking folks here to do so. You have had several posts removed and are promoting an adversarial tone.

I would also suggest losing the accusing tone of “anonymous posters” as your screen name contains “Lurker.”
Perhaps go back to your namesake.
