You can’t have discussion without having disagreements.
Of course, the way you handle those disagreements can sometimes be disagreeable.
The key is .. stop telling other people what they can and cannot believe. Everybody has a choice .. everything in life is about choice. If you don’t like somebody’s choice .. oh well .. just go on to the other msgs of those with whom you do agree.
I’ve been a member here for a very long time; I’ve seen good and I’ve seen terrible people come here and try to disrupt everything. Some of them do it out of some need to run roughshod over everybody. Some do it to try to prove to everyone they are smarter than the rest. Some of them gang up on people .. just to show they are better at ..??????
This is not to say that you have to stand for lies, or slander, or any such thing. All you have to do is press the “abuse” button and you can get the issue resolved.
I’ve noticed that most of the newcomers are very short tempered and tend to view us long-timers as out of date and not worthy of speaking or having an opinion about anything. And .. when they do speak to us, they are RUDE, can’t spell, use the wrong tense of words, don’t know how to use punctuation, etc. We should pity them .. they have been indoctrinated by the left all their life. It may take them some time to realize that the WHOLE WORLD does not follow the liberal mindset.
Don’t bother sending me hate mail .. I’ve already heard it all.
Why would I send you hate mail? You said your piece in a very respectful manner.
I just lost my patience with it all and needed to vent a bit before heading off. If I had left without saying anything, I know I would have grumbled to myself for days. This was a release. I really do wish you all well. I just can’t do it here anymore.
Thank you. It's nice to be recognized for my efforts...

Nope, nasty, vicious blood libels against the Catholic faith are allowed. Even encouraged. So, vale.
