As you can see from post 49, and many of his other posts, using his state was always the point of his posts and claims, not just once, not just today, or on just one claim.

It kept coming up over and over, he had a fountain of claims and statistics from somewhere, but blocked investigation by refusing to say where that somewhere was.

I can see the point about badgering on a single source or point but if it keeps coming up freshly and uniquely over the thread, if he keeps going back to the bottomless well, then what do we do?

If it is on the same thread, simply note something like “the claim was made earlier and debunked at post x through post y.”

At that point, it’s probably best to consider that the claims are baseless and fabricated and move on.

I would simply go with what can be substantiated, and it is consistently well substantiated from many researchers , include some by Catholic sponsored surveys, that Catholics overall are much less conservative than their evangelical counterparts. But as metmom can testify, too often the Catholic reaction to such is to charge the polling agencies with anti-Catholic bias, as if liberals are on the side of conservative evangelicals.
