And evangelicals might likewise say your profile page moniker "Official Anti-Catholic troll hunter" is likewise condemning and insulting to them.
I will not protect a thread just because it has "Joseph Smith" or "Pope" or "Mary" or "L. Ron Hubbard" in the header. It must be clearly a church thread, a chapel or devotional for the assembly to be protected on my watch.
If witnessing is the intent of a thread, IMHO the posters should realize that seekers are drawn to open discussions and rigorous debates - not choir rooms - and they will pay as much attention to the demeanor of the poster as they will to the substance of the post.

I must be misunderstanding you. Are you saying that all evangelicals are Anti-Catholic?
Check the number of times I have posted this on a thread. The insults were flying when I did. Perhaps stepping in and toning down demeaning posts that are not meant for discussion might be a good rule of thumb. Christians demeaning Christians is not really Christian is it?
