Well, then could you explain why it is so unbelievable that I lurked a while before signing up?
"A while" wouldn't be unbelievable. You said you "lurked" long enough to make the statement that whenever someone was booted off a thread you determined that person was a Roman Catholic.
How many Roman Catholics have been booted off threads? Certainly not that many. They're all still here. As the RM said, it's not like the Mormon wars that resulted in so many Mormons being banned or the Rudy Giuliani threads where Rudy's followers were banned.
No, I don't know of any Roman Catholic who's been kicked off the forum permanently. For the few times they've been told to leave a thread, they always come back.
One way or another.

It’s not that you lurked, it’s that you speak with the authority of someone who has be a FReeper for years.
