I almost never post on non-Catholic threads, but it may surprise you that I used to lurk quite a bit - but for the most part, the lively discussions between Protestant denominations are a thing of the past. There were many really good, insightful posts and conversations which I found interesting, and sometimes quite fascinating, and I often came away with some new bit of knowledge. You just never knew I was there.

Those days are gone. I am stating clearly that you have lost something amongst your Protestant brethren. Many of the cooler, more thoughtful voices don't post any more. Collectively, you have allowed a few strident voices to overpower your Christian message, forever altering my perception of non-Catholic Christians. You may argue with my words, but in the end you cannot change my perceptions.

This was my experience as well. I was thinking about it over the last few days. It's very, very unfortunate.

I agree, as well.

Hi all,

I am here for my obligatory 40 seconds of “religious education.” Then I am off to do something productive.

Hope all of you are well! I am doing just fine.

Keep the Faith!

Frank
