I think you were offended by getoffmylawn’s posts reviling Protestants, but I never saw you get offended when some of your coreligionsists used inflammatory language because I or soemoen else disagreed with them, and that seems very common here among the Portestants. Even on this page, third from the top, I am being told to get lost for. Come on. Let’s not have selective vision, boatbums.

Then open your eyes.

That's funny coming from someone who said in post 3,612 "This is an open forum, not a caucus, and if you can't handle the heat in the kitchen, leave. "

Let’s not have selective vision, boatbums kosta50.

Inflammatory language? Really? What posts were "tending to excite anger, disorder, or tumult : seditious"? Wouldn't they have to be something along the lines of encouraging yours or someone else's destruction to be called that. Because someone does not like the way you post and feels it is blasphemous and hurtful and they would like you to stop posting in that way, you would deny them the right to say so?

I WAS offended by GOML's attack on Metmom calling her a liar and all "Protestants" liars as well and also comparing us to Islamists. I think that is way out of line and I haven't seen anything come close to it in vicious, but silly, rhetoric. How would you know what offends me, do you follow my posting history? Whenever I do speak out about an improper post, I get trashed for trying to act like a moderator.

Lastly, I have rarely seen a non-catholic talk about a respectful disagreement with another poster in inflammatory ways and it is usually the other side that starts up with the fiery darts so I don't know where this "very common" behavior you are talking about is happening. One post in a 3000+ thread is hardly very common. Disagreeing over theology is the point of these discussion threads, I am nobody's mama.
