No offence, but I'm happy that I evidently won't be the only undiplomatic poster in FR.
To answer your question, I posted 10 minutes after stumbling on FR after years of knock-down drag out discussions of the issue in other message boards. I posted because my FR keyword search returned an anemic total of five posts relating to the issue. I probaby should have tried more keywords.
I predict that my participation in FR is going to be short-lived anyway. This is because I have found it frustrating to try to address the historical material concerning the Court's treasonous interpretation of the establishment clause in length limited posts. In fact, I had to rip out much of my first post to get things to fit. And it's probaby time to wrap up this post and start again.
You don't have to leave, honest. You do have to get a tough skin to hang around here though.
"length-limited posts"? Read some of the threads here. The original poster often follows up with a reply that is pages long, in order to elaborate on his thoughts.
Take heart. I "stumbled on FR" ten years ago looking for information that I knew wasn't being discussed in the mainstream media. Your opinions on these matters may be right, they may be wrong. I can see from your postings that you aren't a quitter.
Welcome home!
Don't leave. FR has an abundance of drive-by posters who think they have something clever to contribute but obviously don't. Learn to ignore them and keep posting the good stuff. Remember, the ranks of FR are changing moment by moment, plus there are hundreds of lurkers. There will always be someone who can learn from an intelligent post.
Welcome to FR.
