I'll bet that you just judged the content for yourself..........
Rome, like all monarchies, loves the perks which come with hoodwinking people into believing that some men are more holy than others; "another Christ," if you will.
No one filed an abuse report. I saw the post and removed it.
However, a response in the negative with respect to Dr. Eckleburg would reveal nothing about the identity of moderators.
True. Dr. Eckleburg is not a moderator.
Thank you.
Scatological references are not nearly as offensive to Catholics as are the vile and reprehensible lies told about us daily. I would hope that some day our sensibilities will be as vigorously protected.

If you simply IGNORE "open" Religion Forum threads, you will not be so offended.
Calvin’s theocratic will is more in line with what some project, rightly or wrongly, on the Church of the time.
Whatever differences Calvin had with the Church, this is not among them.
Uwinkindi faces three counts of genocide, conspiracy to commit genocide and extermination as a crime against humanity. He is to be handed to the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) in Arusha, Tanzania, by Interpol. "Arrangements are being made to move the suspect to the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, which sits in Arusha." Nabakooba said.
[Uwinkindi] before and during the genocide and who has a $5m bounty on his head, was reportedly very active in the three-month massacre of Tutsis and moderate Hutus under an organised Hutu extremist policy that ordered mass eradications.
It is alleged that he led a group of killers to look for and exterminate Tutsi civilians, and on numerous occasions planned, instigated, ordered and committed acts of genocide against Tutsis.
According to the indictment, prior to and during the genocide, he was a collaborator of the extremist MRND (Mouvement Républicain National Pour La Démocratie et le Développement) party and was known for his hatred for Tutsis.
Thank you for this informative post.
Francois Bazaramba, 59, was a pastor of the Baptist church in Nyakizu, near the city of Butare. Approximately 5,000 members of the Tutsi ethnic group were slaughtered in April and May of 1994 in the Nyakizu area. Prosecutors claim he was an active member of an extremist group, comprising members of the rival Hutu tribe, that orchestrated the killings.
Bazaramba, who sought asylum in Finland in 2003, has been in detention since 2007. Finnish authorities refused to extradite him to Rwanda, fearing he would not receive a fair trial and because Rwanda has the death penalty.
Rwanda claims that Bazaramba worked alongside Nyakizu's ruthless mayor, Ladislas Ntaganzwa, a hard-line ethnic Hutu wanted for genocide, to secure weapons and lead patrols hunting down Tutsis. The murders in Nyakizu came during a 10-day killing spree following the presumed assassination of Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana on April 6, 1994. Hutus slew Tutsis across Rwanda during the period, with anti-Tutsi sentiment inflamed by Hutu government officials and official broadcasts blaming Tutsis for the president's death.
Eyewitnesses told Helsingin Sanomat in 2007 that Bazaramba acquired weapons and led killers. One witness told the newspaper that he got weapons from Eleazar Ziherembere, at the time general secretary of the Union of Baptist Churches of Rwanda. Ziherembere fled Rwanda in 1994 and now works as area director for Africa at International Ministries of the American Baptist Churches USA.
Wonder why they “can’t” find him?
That's the same group Robert Byrd of the KKK was a member.
What your examples show is that the Protestant churches do not hide or protect criminals, even when they are members of the clergy.
Unlike Rome who is still protecting men like Father Wenceslas Munyeshyaka, the Roman Catholic priest responsible for so much of the genocide. Rome still pays his court costs and apparently, at last report, he still worked at a church in France.
The facts remain unaltered. The Roman Catholic church via the Vatican was, in great part, directly responsible for the massacre. Not only were its priests and nuns convicted of genocide, but the religious intolerance and racial superiority that Rome taught in its schools and seminaries in Rwanda contributed to the blood-thirsty ethos that permitted one million people to be slaughtered.
And Rome has yet to apologize. What a surprise.
A person doesn't have to be a moderator to learn the rules and obey them.
They just have to be able to read and understand what's written in black and white.
For some, always a stumbling block.
The way you’ve written that post is to make it appear as if I wrote the words in italics and quotation marks which you’re responding to when the comment was actually made by you and you alone.
