I agree, it's overuse of the "Caucus" status that has gamed the system

After reading about a martyred saint the other day (Maximilian Kolbe, who gave his life for another and was murdered in Aushwitz), I was so deeply moved that I actually seconded a prayer that was posted regarding him.

That's right, in effect, I offered a prayer.

My bad - wham, I was notified that posting was limited to Caucus members only. Though after awhile, it was grudgingly allowed that a prayer was okay. Nevertheless, it was clearly an issue that demanded immediate clarification.

I was disgusted - revolted, even. I wonder if Father Kolbe asked the Caucus affiliation of the man he exchanged his life for, before he spoke up to the Commandant of the death camp.

And this on the Religion forum, no less.

Talisker: really, seriously, I am shocked and saddedned that somebody treated you so unjustly with a twist of the caucus knife. I wasn't there, and I'm not going to search and find out who did it, but please accept from me the most heartfelt apology.

It must have been like extending the hand of fellowship and receiving a stinging slap. Please pray for us, please forgive.
