I’ve long said that it’s the sound of free speech, freedom of religion and the free exchange of ideas. I don’t want to see it shut down at all, however bleeding over into News/Activism creates a problem because not all enjoy the debate and can become offended. It should remain in the RF, so those who want to read and participate can do so, and those who do not can do so as well.
I agree 100%. There are times when Catholic news is general news (e.g. papal election), but most of the recent stories I don't think fit that category. Something that the mods can straighten out I'm sure.
