But when women enter the conversation, there should be at least a modicum of special respect.
Generally I would agree. Yet once those same woman cross the lines and seek all the rights and privileges of a man -- then ---if they mess with the bull, they too, can get the horns.
Specially when those same women are posing as bull-fighters, wielding lances.
Here & now you openly confess to being sexist. And seeking to have that benefit to apply to *some* women (that would be Roman Catholics) disproportionately. I can say this for I've never seen you come riding to the rescue of metmom or boatbums, while either of those two women were being subjected to getting personal-like harassment.
What ---you think we haven't noticed that there is more than a little bit of the ya-ya sisterhood thing going on?
How stupid do you think people are? Do you not realize that many of us have long seen this "sisterhood" activity, with men too (FRomans) jumping upon any who would dare confront that sisterhood?
Meanwhile, women like metmom and boatbums, day after day have insinuations slid towards them like stilettos trying to find a way in between the ribs, when they are not at other times openly insulted in one way or another. Observing that activity makes this particular bull, very very angry.
And so more than a few individuals here, over the years -- have gotten the horns, while I broke and stomped on the lances intended not for whatever it was these two had been saying, but meant as personal attack, and then (of course) would have those same lances then aimed at myself when I tried to break it up.
Even seen a bull pick up a lance and throw it right back into the faces of the ones' who brought those lances into an arena?
THat's me, baby, and that's why I'm so admired by one and all. (he hate me)
And so I have often attempted to intervene when I've witnessed individuals here be gone after personally with extra-special attention mainly for reason they dared oppose or correct a member of the FRoman sisterhood.
I've been given that treatment from YOU more than once, with it being more all about myself having opposed something which some FRoman dame posted instead of whatever issue it was which was being discussed, instead. Did you think I didn't realize what was going on? I may be a lot of things...but stupid isn't one of them.
Yet here you (and others) are, complaining about how unfair "the rules" are ---since you people just cannot stop yourselves from going straight to making everything personal!
Screeching split-tails -- unite! And then piss and moan on thread after thread about how one of the members of the sisterhood had been exposed as having long falsely represented herself (for example). Remember that?
"They stalk people from thread to thread (oh boo-hoo isn't it terrible?)"
when what really had transpired was some of the game-players around here were being called out for the bullshitting they had long been indulging themselves in (while trying to score points by moaning & complaining about how evil-boll-weevil "Protestants" on this forum are).
Meanwhile, it would be nice to focus upon principles and concepts being discussed, instead of the main topic of thread conversations be sidetracked again and again into being about who it is that is discussing what, and who has to figuratively have more than one hand tied behind their back, while they themselves are slapped around by screecher contingent.
It seems like in this, here again you'd like 'special' rules apply where *some* people are more equal than others.
But this is the Smokey Backroom -- and yourself and others have been going on and on about how unfair everything is to "Catholics" -- and so I am addressing those claims. Otherwise, I would prefer to not have to be constantly dealing with this sort of crap. One cannot deal with the issue without it being all about people, since the issue has been made all about people (including the religion forum moderator(s), and by extension, JimRob too).
Don't even tell me the one about "baby Jesus and his mother", waving that around like a magic wand that would preclude female FRomans from needing to abide by the same rules as anyone else (whenever it suited the ya-ya sisterhood's strategic RC objectives). You did that while alluding to abortion, and chips on shoulder as big as Nevada...pinging others to that sideways insinuation made towards boatbums.
Knock it off. You keep trying to have things both ways -- sliding knives at people here (women, even).
If Roman Catholics come to this forum and say things which cannot stand up to scrutiny -- then those things which they have said (issues or claims made ---not people) can be shredded -- right before their eyes. Just_like_for_clams_made_by_any_one_else.
If you (and your sisterhood) can't stand the heat, don't bring any. If RC apologetic cannot stand being opposed, if it offends yourself and those who bring it here to have other people oppose it --- then stop bringing it, and stop bullshitting about how unfair everything is, too.
There is a reason why in Jewish traditions women were not allowed to stand among the men in the Temple while those men would open the scrolls and propound upon Scripture (as virtually all Jewish males had birth-right to do).
Ever hear the one about why many women from India have that red dot on their forehead?
