Thanks for the ping Pyro. I didn't know that you were an anti-semite, but then I didn't know I was an anti-Catholic.

This is why I spend almost zero time in the FR religion forum. I'm always discovering unpleasant things about myself and others that I hadn't previously known.

I'm wondering what type of "anti-Catholic" I must be, considering that Angelqueen.org has members who are EWTN hosts, mainstream journalists, Hollywood screenwriters, Catholic authors, canon lawyers, CEOs, book sellers, priests etc.

AQ - the most visited traditional Catholic site on the planet - is read regularly by the Vatican, congressional staffers, District Superiors, heads of Catholic universities, bishops and reporters from every type of mainstream media. We've raised and continue to raise tens of thousands of dollars for causes like building new churches. We get prayer requests for the suffering and dying out to hundreds or even thousands of others to pray for them.

Should I be concerned with those who calumniate me or attempt to smear the AQ membership? Sure it's somewhat disheartening, but ultimately what they think about anyone or anything is entirely irrelevant.

So, when someone publicly calls me "anti-Catholic" or insinuates that you're an anti-semite, the source must be considered - and then ignored.

You cannot compare FR to AQ. This is an open floor debate forum; there is never a presumption of common platform. This is why it's fun: we get bar brawls. Please spend some time here, when you can, -- we need the triple-A often.

You da man!! You're in the big leagues now.

Just ignore us poor hacks on FR.
