I have to commend the RM for his patience in running heard over this pack of whiney papists.

From Wiki: "Papist is a term, usually disparaging or an anti-Catholic slur, referring to the Catholic Church, its teaching, practices or adherents. It was coined during the English Reformation to denote a Christian whose loyalties were to the Pope, rather than to the Church of England."

Nope, no personal attacks here.

Papists have called Proddys horrific names every week of FR’s existence from the beginning.

They have only themselves to thank for responses in kind.

It seems to be the only language they understand or that gets their attention.

Yet this was removed earlier:
“Warning. The thread you are on is posted by, or pinged to, a group of people who hate Catholics. They are bigots who are not honest. They use Free Republic for three reason. The first is to bait Catholics and the Orthodox. The second is to silence Catholics and the Orthodox. The third reason is to recruit new people into their hatred and bigotry. We recommend you do not comment on their threads.

bigot:
A bigot is a prejudiced person who is intolerant of any opinions differing from their own or intolerant of people of political views, different ethnicity, race, class, religion, or gender.
Evil:
-morally reprehensible : sinful, wicked (an evil impulse) -arising from actual or imputed bad character or conduct (a person of evil reputation)
Lie:
-a false statement made with deliberate intent to deceive; an intentional untruth; a falsehood.
-something intended or serving to convey a false impression; imposture.
-an inaccurate or false statement.

Yet it did not single out anyone by name. I guess hypocrites run rampant along with bigots. I should add that definition. After all, the only thing I did was give a general warning and some definitions. So here is one more definition meant for general use:

Hypocrite:
-a person who puts on a false appearance of virtue or religion
- a person who acts in contradiction to his or her stated beliefs or feelings

Just know it is a fixed game here when you post.
