The term “Latin” is inadequate as Catholics include the Maronites and Syro-Malabar. “Catholic” is the only broad term a forum website can use. “Roman Catholic” similarly misses out on those two important groups of Catholics. For the same reason we ought not to think that we can’t use the term “Greeks” to refer to the Russian Orthodox, Bulgarian Orthodox, Serbian, Greek, etc. when “Orthodox” is a far simpler version for the FR moderators. I agree that’s simplistic, but everything religious is not simple.

. . . the only broad term a forum website can use . . .

. . . "can" . . . ????

Uhhhhh . . . no . . . I came up with some charitable, inclusive, encompasing terms I hoped would be seen as mutually acceptable.

I got back the usual heretical !!!!CONTROL!!!! PHREAQUE !!!!DEMANDING!!!! stinking piles of supreme arrogance from the usual finger frothing cliques for TPC's to utterly kotow to and comply with. NOPE. No more.

HINT:
They burned that bridge.
They burned the bridge pilings.
They burned the bridge abudments.
They burned the bridge approaches.
They gleefully burned the asphalt for miles around leading up to the bridge approaches.

I would frequently limit my preferences in posting fun and colors just in an effort to minimize jangling some of their starchy, prissy, sanctimonious, self-righteous, snooty, Nurse Rachetty sensibilities . . . when one cares, one frequently defers on sensibilities. NO MORE. Rain on em. It can take me many years, as I've demonstrated, hereon, to get burned out on even the nastiest of scoundral types. However, it does happen, on occasion.

If they want to pretend to Mother Mary that they can or want to play nice, THEY can come up with a MUTUALLY ACCEPTABLE umbrella term. That they refuse will be a screaming persistent declaration of their fierce galactic level arrogance and stubborness about their exclusive, unrighteous, UNBiblical IN-GROUP vs OUT-GROUP mentalities.

OR, Perhaps I should just let my creativity roam and see how many possible plausible unheretical terms I could come up with . . . and Trinitarian Protty Christians could just choose which seemed like the most fun for us.
