I guess somebody decided that my comment was somehow unacceptable. Not sure exactly why, but, whatever.
I had suggested Psalm 2 and Psalm 16.
The point I was getting at was that several years ago I remember Catholics posting articles as “caucus” only to have a non-Catholic post the very same article a few hours later as “open” — and then proceeded to do what they were going to do anyway.
Sorry if you perceived that as “giving you the business” — that was not my intent.
And, as far as “posting and running” — I don’t “post and run.” If a non-Catholic has a legitimate question or has an intelligent point to make, I’ll respond. But otherwise, I just know how to ignore the garbage.
In the words of the illustrious management of this forum, “The demeanor of the poster says more about his own confession than the post says about yours. When he is being rude or mean it drives people away from his confession and towards yours. That is of course if you can resist the urge to meet fire with fire, in which case neither confession is appealing to the lurkers. The poster who “turns the other cheek” wins every single time.”

What do you think? And I understand not caucusing threads. But IMO it would be best if you defended Our Lady when doing so.
