"I wonder why they don’t react like that on the hit pieces RC’s post about Protestantism?"

Maybe because hit pieces of that variety aren't nearly as numerous as hit pieces of this variety? While we are on the subject of lists...(the criterion I used was whether the article is a direct attack on a doctrine of the Church posted by a non-member of said Church, i.e. I didn't count articles about stupid stuff Francis has said, or articles about a Protestant doctrine which attacks Catholic doctrine in passing but do not derive their primary purpose from attacking Catholic doctrine.)

Oh, and I only counted articles from this year. I could delve into last year's offering if you want, but of course that would take quite a bit more time.

Well, I’m convinced. There’s obviously a lot of truthful information out there showing the error of the Catholic religion.

Now, if you want to start a count of who has posted the most catholic articles we can do that also.

Aren’t most of those articles, and maybe even all, posted by RnMomof7? I just looked up some and recognize others as her postings. You neglected to mention that. She has been posting several articles a day on the Catholic Church, which is her perogative, according to the rules here. But she has only been doing so in recent weeks. So, for 2014, in which I spent the last 9 or 10 months following the RF very closely, I have to say that there were nowhere near so many articles posted that were critical of Roman Catholic doctrine as there are presently being posted, and according to what I recollect, there may very well have been more articles critical of Protestantism, which tended to be in the veins of “what Protestantism gets wrong,” and “Why I left Protestantism to become a Catholic.”
