I've noticed a huge increase in Catholic threads as well. They're not just caucus threads either; many of them are titled with provocative headlines like this. The posters know they are irritating many; the only reason I can see that they do it so often is to "push dogma" as you state.

Leaving aside the issue of reading posters' minds and their motives for posting threads, this thread was motivated, as I said in post #1, by the desire to rebut some of the garbage posted on this thread.

Now if you want to talk about provocative titles, how about Apparitions Exposed!.

At least mine doesn't have an exclamation mark.

You would also be aware of course, that many of the threads which address Catholic issues are actually posted by Protestants. To use your words........"very strange".

The obvious antidote to too many Catholic threads, of course, is to provide us with some alternatives. Or I guess, you might want to consider a quota system whereby Catholics are limited in the amount of "dogma" they can push. Put some restrictions on them, in other words. Is Catholic "dogma" "irritating" to you? I'm sorry if it is but here's something on which you can depend.

If tripe like Apparitions Exposed! gets posted, there will be a response.

Why not notate that?

The title of your thread is provocative on a stand-alone basis for the thousands of people who never saw the other one.

There are already hundreds of alternatives here every day...of a political nature. Which is what Free Republic is about.
