Your question should not be why a Catholic such as me spends so much time on Catholic topic threads, it should be why those like you, who are not Catholics, have such a fascination with the Church.

Here's a fun exercise for you to try: apply your own rule ("Were you honestly concerned for the Godless you would be spending time on...etc") to your own posting history. What do we find? I can't find any non-perjorative posts regarding "Unitarians, Seventh Day Adventists, Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, Hindus, Buddhists, Animists, Muslims, Atheists and any number of cultists", if any posts at all. But you sure make a lot of posts about individual non-Catholics. Why do people like you, who are not Protestants, have such a perverse fascination with the thoughts of individual Protestants? As dear, departed Petronski used to say, "it's creepy."

I myself post all the time about the church. I also post about those who fall outside the church. Which means that, if we use your "spending time demonstrates an honest concern" formula, I've publicly demonstrated a more honest concern for all of them than you have. And I think I've managed to post threads about every single group that you named by name on multiple occasions, and before you named them.

That is a truly fascinating and revealing observation, Alex. Thank you.

The answer is simple, I don't care what they say about themselves or each other so I spend no time on their sites or threads. I only care that what is said about the Catholic Church is factual, which is why I lock horns with the anti-Catholics who frequent this site in order to spread and repeat lies and half truths about the Church.
