I'm not posting to you because as I have only defended myself against calumny and yet you have suggested it would be just if "the SSPX were roasting in fire", I have been the one to be told to "knock it off".

For the record, I have never asked that you be told to "knock it off." Then again, I have never asked that ANYONE be told to knock it off.

Of course, you and I are both guests in JimRob's living room and he is neither a Catholic nor an SSPXer as I understand it. He is just a host who has the patience to put up with the infernal squabbling that arises here among Catholics and those who claim to be.

Although I have asked publicly that policies here be changed to generally suppress the eternal squabbling in the name of conservative POLITICAL unity instead of RELIGIOUS unity which is beyond anyone's insufficient powers here, he and those who run this living room have not agreed as is certainly their right.

The schism and its adherents attack the Church and her Faithful on this website. The Church and her Faithful defend against the schism. So be it. While the religious sideshows triggered by SSPX using this site for schismatic advertising and philosophical seduction of the poorly catechized among Catholics certainly distract from common political efforts, the decision to host such squabbling is neither yours nor mine.

I have no personal objection to your responding to me in whatever words you may choose. Your personal disagreement with what I post does not mean that I should ignore what you post to anyone.
