Wagglebee, my post wasn't addressed to you. I'd still like to see a response from NYer.

I notice you're new here and may not be familiar with how FR operates, but this is an OPEN FORUM. If you want a private response use FReepmail.

Actually, they typically, and unfortunately, identify themselves as Protestants.

Actually, they don't.

NYer wasn't just criticizing anti-Catholic bigots who just happen to self-identify as Protestants -- he was "attacking" all Protestants.

NYer happens to be a SHE and she has NEVER attacked Protestants as a group. However, YOU seem to be making it personal.

I don't deny that there exists anti-Catholic bigotry on Free Republic.

That's good to hear.

I understand how FR operates. I just wanted to express why I found your rejoinder to be insufficient per se. I wanted NYer's two cents on this.

If you want a private response use FReepmail.

But I don't want a private response. I'd like a public response by NYer to what I consider to be "Protestant-baiting" and bashing.

Actually, they typically, and unfortunately, identify themselves as Protestants.

Actually, they don't.

Nonsense. If they don't self-identify, they are readily labelled as such.

NYer happens to be a SHE and she has NEVER attacked Protestants as a group.

My apologies. She was "attacking" all Protestants with that post. To suggest as she did that "christian" Freepers approve of hate-crimes against RCs, and that Protestant leaders "silently" approve is beyond the pale. I'm not an expert on her previous posts, but if THAT wasn't intended as a smear against Protestants, then HOW should I take it? Thus my original question addressed to NYer.

However, YOU seem to be making it personal.

I am addressing my question to a PERSON, that's for sure. Where else should I address responses to an insinuation I find offensive?

I don't deny that there exists anti-Catholic bigotry on Free Republic.

That's good to hear.

Unfortunately, along with it exists anti-Protestant bigotry along with just plain school-yard childishness.

I've gotta run. Cheers!
