Pooh, before I read any of the responses I'll say I'm gonna miss you, and I hope you reconsider.

What helps me to rationalize is the firm belief that being a free and open forum, we are fully infiltrated. Remember me? I'm the jerk that transcribed countless quotes fromm The Devil's Advocate as an active lesson to demonstrate the destruction from within.

In my opinion, at least half, maybe more, of the shrill voices, ranting and pulling their hair, acting so negatively un-Christian, are friggin' no good demoncraps, laughin' their azzez off at the division they are able to cause via our own stereotypes. In their faux-righteousness the call on the faithful for indigent wrath. Many of the faithful are good sheep, yet sheep, nevertheless, and the follow the dubious call. Maybe I should re-run my TDA effort.

Hey Marine, buck it up and don't leave a fellow alone on the line. Semper Fi

You are one of the plants. Intolerantly encouraging division at every opportunity.

It's a shame that we don't all agree with you all the time.

Will you accept our apologies?

We'll be more sensitive to your need to be right.

"(some compared her to the Messiah crucified)"

That's what non-religious hubby has been saying.

I can't wait for your OPUS. If need be, we could take up a collection for a farewell bucket of whatever it is that RINO's eat.

Ahem. Will you accept any responsiblity for your share of it?

Of course I will. Sometimes I'm fairly brutal in my responses, but I direct my ire at the poster and what they have said. I'd prefer to read reasonable discourse, but I go off when I read irrational blather. Hyperbole and dogma can only oppose reality through emotion. Emotion is a pisser! Don't you know HEP? Hierosolyma est perdita Emotion! Same crap which would have us lynch someone or otherwise supersede the law. Yes, I do speak with brutality.

Yes, yes - what goes around comes around. Methinks there is more to this than an Opus.

Is being a christian identity sympathizer, a white supremicist, a neo-nazi, a racist or an anti-semite illegal activities in themselves?

The issue is not legality, but public opinion. Which will not be helped in this case if the pro-Terry side becomes associated in the media with Christian Identity, white supremicists, neo-nazis, racists and/or anti-semites.

I wonder which of us he blames most?

I'm sorry to see you leave and share the same sentiments. I remember when I was a newby to the internet and chat rooms through AOL. There were some fine Christian chats room that soon became a favorite watering hole for Wiccans and atheists.

Alas, that was the death of the Christian chats. I fear that is what is happening here at FR. So many newbys of questionable philosophy undermining a private forum where the intellectual and conservative members of our society have been able to gather freely.

I'll be sorry to see you go because I think you and some others are only the crack in the wall. While I'd certainly like to be the one whose finger is in the dam, I don't have that much time. I most likely will follow. Such a shame, and somewhere in the background I hear the gleeful laughter of the DUers, mucnhing on the demise of their greatest enemy.

Farewell and let me know should you find another conservative paradise where once again we can agree to disagree, publish thoughtful and responsible posts, and respect one anothers viewpoint.

I guess you missed the reference, but the opusing poster had just the day before told me to "go f*ck yourself". Pretty ironic that he should then turn around and whine and wail about a lack of civility driving him away.

I speak brutally too, many times, but I don't pollute the forum with worthless profanity.

No reason required, I guess. Your recommendation is reason enough.

Coop, if you haven't seen the "howling crowd of hysteria" either you haven't been paying attention or you've been too busy screaming to notice.

I'm not sure why I'm even wasting my time on your idiotic rant. I can show you "screaming," if you'd really like to see it.

And concerning the howling crowd of hysteria, your poster friend you're so enthusiastically (yet rather weakly) attempting to defend specifically applied that tag to my taking an opposite view of her and her uptight "we're right!" pals. Sorry if I'm not being a cooperative extremist nutjob for you and your oh-so-reasonable groupie pals.

I have known you for a long time. Quite honestly, this whole hissy fit of yours has been quite telling and at the same time very confusing.

Fact is Free Republic and the Republican Party are bigger than social conservatives, the evil "religious right", moderates, etc. Problem is, if you leave, it will make no difference. We have survived many an exodus. 2000 election, 9/11, Patriot Act, War On Terror.... You get the picture. As much as it grieves me to say this, farewell.
