Any threads meant to do so are being deleted. Don't be surprised they are coming here. I have decided to not argue about doctrine here past my first initial comments due to my respect for the Pope and desire for us to reflect on his life of service to God.

But, don't be surprised if others aren't so disciplined.

I won't be surprised at all. Between those booted from FR over Terri Schiavo and those who will be booted in the next few days over the Pope, I think it's good riddance to all of the disruptors.

I'm afraid the pulled posts will multiply once the Pope is dead and the process of electing a new Pope is going on. I feel for the moderators.

I agree. Doctrinal discussions are not appropriate for this thread. I am sure there will be plenty of threads, or could be existing already for those discussions.

May we set aside this time and thread to honor a man who has contributed a great deal to the world, to freedom, human dignity, genuine charity and the preservation of life in the face of the liberalism of the postmodernists.
