For more see Catholic Caucus: "Guidelines" re: discussions of Liturgy, other prudential decisions?

Siobhan's post on that thread is pertinent too:

1) A Catholic Caucus on FreeRepublic should have a clear focus on fostering the Culture of Life vis-a-vis the political, governmental, and legal order in the United States. (This should be our principal effort on this forum.)

2) A Catholic Caucus on Free Republic should be absolutely loyal to the Pope and the Magisterium. Areas of concern (such as the confab in Assisi) should be discussed first with an eye to understanding the Holy Father's actions and teaching and second to look to the relevant Vatican congregation which prepared the event or issue of concern.

3) A Catholic Caucus on Free Republic should establish its own kind of "Neverending Story" Thread where Catholics, SSPXers, assorted sedevacantists and others can duke it out to their hearts content.

4) A Catholic Caucus on FreeRepublic should engage in direct Catholic action to oppose the lavendar mafia, Catholics for a Free Choice, Dignity, Call to Action, We Are Church, and any other AmChurch efforts or enterprises hellbent on destroying the Church.

5)A Catholic Caucus on FreeRepublic should respond to any issue or crisis facing the Church from the viewpoint of "building up the Church" and exposing sin, canonical violations, apostasy, and sheer evil.

6)A Catholic Caucus on FreeRepublic should post threads which build up our spiritual and devotional lives as Catholics and threads that educate us about the suffering, persecuted Church abroad.

#1) This is a public forum and anyone has the right to post and discuss what they wish, 'Novus Ordo rules' aside. Who do you people think you are? Why are you so frightened of debate?

#2)How does your preaching relate to the topic of this thread?

Amen to that! I'm as 'schismatic, quasi-Jansenistic and pharisaical' an Orc as they come and even I want to see some balance restored in the Caucus.

A Neverending Story thread is the best place to debate these issues on an ongoing basis instead of clogging the place up with endless posts on The Eternal Subject!
