We (evangelicals) really are bored as well as irked by the incessant promotion of Roman Catholicism and using FR to do so, and now the condescending attitude that we really do not understand Catholicism when the presumption of this elitist ecclesia is substantiated and exposed for what it is.
Your latest misuse of FR as a Catechism lesson and propaganda is one more example, and as the majority of Catholics in America are liberal in contrast to evangelicals, your efforts to correct misunderstandings of Rome would be more fitting for them, though in reality they example what Rome most effectually conveys and fosters.
In contrast, you will not find evangelicals here engaging in such constant promotion of their particular church, as the Lord Jesus is their focus, and seek the salvation of souls and this country, but not via Catholic monarchy or bringing back the Inquisitions of Rome. /p>

The contrast is both glaring and telling isnt it?

The entire original post can be summed up in two words.
PRIDE and CONFUSION
Neither which come from God

AMEN! It is irksome that when I tell other people about Free Republic and what a great website it is for Conservative Christians, I have to warn them that the Religion Forum only seems to make FR sound like a Roman Catholic Church sponsored website. I tell them that the founder is a Christian who permits other members to post threads on topics that may interest readers and though, the Roman Catholic members do try to dominate the Religion Forum, it doesn't mean that only the Catholic viewpoint is permitted. With this new donation cycle, I wonder if the super abundance of Catholic Caucus and Roman Catholic related propaganda as well as highly provocative Catholic VS. Protestant threads every single day, may not turn off new people from joining? It has crossed my mind more than a few times.

I think this shift at FR has had a direct impact on the amount of traffic and posting at FR. It's hard not to notice that a large number of threads on the news/activism forum are posted by the same posters that dominate the religion forum. As intellectual debate is replaced with the promotion of a skewed perspective why visit the site.
