Why can’t Protestants have caucus threads? Why are you so threatened?

LOL...context is a wonderful thing.

It is the Catholic/Orthodox Caucus that was zotted which is total bullzit....

I MISSED THIS....WHY IS THIS THE CASE?...I mean besides the fact that Proddy RMs take care of Proddy’s.

I'll answer that as soon as you tell us what persuaded you to stop beating your wife.

Why can’t Protestants have caucus threads?

I'm trying to dope this out myself. I personally have no issue with people having a "No Catholics or Orthodox allowed" thread. I'm guessing that there might be some disagreement about who is a Protestant.

And if it's true that the designation "Catholic/Orthodox" is not allowed then I think we have a problem that may be beyond fixing. Generally "Catholic" with an uppercase 'C' means those in communion with the See of Rome, while "Orthodox" means those in communion with various patriarchates more or less in communion with the See of Constantinople. ( I THINK, but will welcome correction.) So it's a pretty precise designation.

But what would happen if an Episcopalian or a Oneness Pentecostal posted on a "Protestant Caucus" thread? In or out?

So I'm guessing the controversy is not so much about a "Protestant Caucus" all by itself, but such a Caucus when "Catholic/Orthodox" is not permitted.

Does that clarify anything?
