Ah, but you do repeatedly, Mark. IMO that is because some Roman Catholics have a really difficult, if not impossible time discerning the difference between criticizing a faith or belief as opposed to personally criticizing an individual FReeper.
It took me awhile, but I learned how to post within the rules of FR. There's no excuse why Roman Catholics can't learn to do likewise.
The good Dr. E has posted many things that she has labelled as Catholic from questionable websites owned or used by even more questionable people. Posting photos taken at odd angles
The "odd angle" photo was first posted by alamo-girl. Even with the "odd angle" the photo is pretty explicit and comports with RC faith and practice as taught by Roman Catholics like John Paul II.

Post for me a single instance of slander, Dr. E. One.

Which odd angle photo? I have lost track. Please post it again so that I know which one.

Comport? That is an odd use of the term. Let us examine what it means. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/comport says that: –verb (used with object) 1. to bear or conduct (oneself); behave: He comported himself with dignity.
–verb (used without object) 2. to be in agreement, harmony, or conformity (usually followed by with): His statement does not comport with the facts.
Your statement indicates useage with object. So: this photo conducts itself with RC (Raving Calvinist?) faith and practice. How can a photo conduct itself? Your statements on your photos are equivalent in gibberish as are your statements on the Faith of Jesus Christ.
Deuteronomy 18: 20 But if a prophet presumes to speak in my name an oracle that I have not commanded him to speak, or speaks in the name of other gods, he shall die.' 21 "If you say to yourselves, 'How can we recognize an oracle which the LORD has spoken?', 22 know that, even though a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if his oracle is not fulfilled or verified, it is an oracle which the LORD did not speak. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously, and you shall have no fear of him.
We snicker at Calvin and laugh at his words. We have no fear of him.
The photographer titled it "Mary's Sacrifice" and as I recall claimed he took the photo at a graveyard in Nicaragua.
I posted a link to it because of my general aggravation whenever I see anyone or anything draped on a cross pretending to be equal to Christ, whether a rock star, Santa Claus, a cartoon character or whatever.
Mary, John or anyone else at the foot of the Cross would not have bothered me, but in this photo the lady he evidently calls Mary has her arm draped over the crossbeam where Christ's arm would have been.
Any hoot, that's all I know about it. The artist's concept and/or the photographer's title were troubling to me, personally.
His website evidently has been canceled, but you can still see residues of it by Googling and using the cache. And if you Google on images, the photo is still there as a thumbprint evidently from a FreeRepublic posting.
We did check a little further on thread trying to see the statuary in context with other graveyard statuary. As I recall, we did find a landscape photo that suggested it was, i.e. she was not at the foot of the cross.
INDEED.
THX.
