After 9 years, I would hope no one else would take my name, but if they do, it isn't me. GrannyK is also not me, although I used that name on Lucianne for years before joining FR. Someone else is using it here, now.

See this all a result of VatII and it's existentialist philosophy and it's equally ugly twin sister Identity Poltics. Your so wrapped up in your group identity and feel so oppressed that non-Romanists will not accept your difference.
An OPUS is merely vanity in which you can have an Oprah moment and share your pain with other Freepers.
This is why Romanism is synonymous with Liberalism
I don’t spend much time on reiligious threads where folks seem to fight about all manner of stuff and yes I have seen some posters claim Catholics are church of satan in Rome...that sort of thing...a few.
I have also seen openly Catholic posters deride non Catholics just as hard.
It’s all silly to me, your non religious posting is quite nice and you are to be commended.
I sure wish Catholics voted per their instruction in significant numbers...that would cure all our problems.
It is wise to ignore all of the advice given in this thread for too many have their own motives in mind. Instead you should act on what God is telling you to do, and if that means leaving FR, so be it. You know yourself better than any of us ever will and you know what is best for you.
I am not a Catholic, but I offer my sincere prayers that God will guide you in all things and that He may heal the hurt that we have inflicted upon you. May your heart be strengthened and may you grow in His Grace.
Your departure is our loss. May God bless you and your family.
We Catholics do very well at FR.
We got nothing to be upset about.
What a drama queen, looks like you’re still here.
Our nation suffers another 9/11 and you decide you want the attention on yourself instead.
Nice.
I can certainly understand your decision, though it disappoints me greatly.
Since this is a religious thread, I will not post.
What? Oh, oops!
Judith, if the idiots will not respect your views, ask where they live and take your dogs over there, they will change thier minds!!!
Please don’t leave.
Don’t go. There are only a few that delight in twisting the knife. Don’t give them the pleasure.
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?
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?
If you would reconsider, I’d appreciate the effort. If you go, who is going to agree with me about morbidly obese people? ;-)
It would seem by your frustration that Jesus should have thrown in the towel too.
And I’m not even a Christian. But I know that The United States could not have been founded without his example.
I have never known Jim to show any anti Catholicism at all. So, I'm not getting why you're leaving. If you stay and you need a hand defending the faith just ping me, I have a thick skin and a penchant for fight.
The anti-Catholic and anti-Mormon bigots are far outnumbered by the majority of users here. However, the majority of users don’t seem to be bothered by the divisive, hateful religious bigotry displayed by a few here. If they are bothered by it, they rarely speak up about it. Wish that would change, but I’ve wished it for a long time and the bigotry continues unfettered by reason, common sense, civility, common courtesy, or the unity that needs to exist among conservatives if we are to come together and slow or stop the socialists and fascists that have taken over our country.
Hopefully you don’t support Rommney :)
Hang in there...where else will you go? This is the only place on the net!
dont let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya!
Good grief. The world must be tough for you. There may be one or two people who have said really negative things (although I haven’t seen it), but there is definitely not any negative bias toward Catholics from the vast majority of participants on this site.
You need to develop a thicker skin.
