There are a number of anti-Catholic posters that I completely ignore. I do not read their posts, nor do I respond or ping them. He is among them. I can share my list with you in Freepmail, but I'm sure you have a pretty good idea who is on it. I have added four more names today, though. It makes FR so much more pleasant.
If they don't read or don't understand why
- repeating the conclusion is not an argument
- argumentum ad hominem is fallacious
- poisoning the well is not an argument
- misconstrung youroppenents thought is not an argument
then it's time to ignore.
My biggest problem there is that I forget who is on my ignore list or don't notice who's posting because I am captivated by the post.
Hey, make sure my name is on that list will ya? Please?
I am also thankful for the attention grabbing posting styles a few of them use. Instead of having to scroll to the bottom of a post to see if it is by someone on my ignore list, I can immediately recognize a post as on the ignore list because of its large multicolored fonts, triple punctuation, etc.
These people are too dumb to realize that their attention getting tactics get them less attention.
