The founder of neo-conservatism, Irving Kristol, was a Jew.

I wouldn’t be able to moderate anything :) Unless the mods are getting paid well, it’s a thankless job, imo.

“Yes, unfortunately, they have.”

Then we’re back to square one. What is it about Romanism that makes it so easy to become a Leftist?

Last time I checked, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Jimmy Carter, and most of the Congressional Black Caucus all came from Protestant backgrounds. What made them so easy to become leftists?

Don’t go. There are only a few that delight in twisting the knife. Don’t give them the pleasure.

The same thing as the Romanists. They bought into Existentialists philosophies. The difference is that it is not institutionalized in most Protestant Churches. There are a few that have institutionalized existentialism such as the PCUSA but that’s also the reason why that Church is dying (along with the ECUSA).

“Chick is not allowed at all on the Religion Forum whether as a source or as a pejorative.”

How about referring to small chickens?

Or Easter candies? Even Jewish people like the marshmellow ch. . .

;-)

LOL! But seriously, there is good reason Chick is not to be spoken in public on the Religion Forum (except by me of course) - for instance, The Deceived. It really is that bad.

IIRC, this is your "OPUS, Part Deux."

Or maybe "Opus, Part Trois."

God willing, it will be "Opus, Fini."

If we see you commenting on FR tomorrow or next week will that mean you were insincere in the reason for your posting this anti-Protestant screed?

There's that Calvinist habit of repression and tyranny bubbling to the top again.

Wow, using the phrase “anti-Catholic bigots” is a specifically “anti-Protestant screed”? She could be referring to Communists for all you know!

Judith Anne,

I know where you’re coming from! I find myself muttering at the screen all the time around here! In fact, I sort of “quit” for a whole year back in 2007. I prefer to look at it as an extended break now. I’m thinking of doing that again soon. As it is, I don’t really post much anymore, at least in comparison with former times. The manifest idiocy in some people threatens to undermine basic faith in the “humanity” of nearly all people sometimes. But, if I take an extended mental health break again, I still won’t burn all of my bridges here.

I humbly recommend that you do something along the same lines. Take a long break if you must, but don’t leave altogether. Don’t give “the usual suspects” the satisfaction!

Please?

9 Republican Senators are Catholic.

Are they rinos?

Your “dancing on the grave” so to speak, is duly noted. You must be proud.

I think we can safely assume that the general Romanist population reflects the percentage of Republican versus Democrat in the Senate and if we further allow for Pyro’s statement that Leftist Romanists have abandoned their faith then we must come to the conclusion that 2/3rds of the Romanists population in the US have abandoned their faith.

Do they stop counting them now?

Hey, wait a minute. If there's so much anti-Catholic bigotry how did so many get elected to the Senate?

Lol. Perhaps you assume I haven’t read some of her anti-Protestant posts. If so, your assumption would be wrong.

“Do they stop counting them now?”

Not as long as they throw in a little jingle.

“Hey, wait a minute. If there’s so much anti-Catholic bigotry how did so many get elected to the Senate?”

See previous answer.

If you would reconsider, I’d appreciate the effort. If you go, who is going to agree with me about morbidly obese people? ;-)
