Do you believe that advocating monarchism, or advocating the fall of our country's formerly-Christian-consensus constitutional republic, might themselves be a violation of the rules of this forum?
It is my understanding that it is. Truth be known I haven't read a hard and fast rule about the matter. My understanding comes from the sensus fidelium if you will, of the forum itself. However, it is somewhat moot since I've never taken an effort to study the idea of Catholic monarchism to form an opinion one way or the other. Just know of its existence.
But I don't think that precludes someone from making observations about the decline of our nation and speculating on what comes next. For my own political perspective I inhabit that gray area between the ballot box and the ammo box anyway and am not enamored with the notion that our salvation lies in 2014, 2016 or beyond. I guess you can thank the abundance of FR cynicism and doom saying for that. My formative years have been spent here on FR so it only follows. You could say I am a child of FR in that sense.
Which, bringing us back to what I perceive to be the main thrust of most of the argument here, is whether Catholicism is being deemed a threat to the United States by some posters? It seems reasonable to conclude that the mere fact of being Catholic, converting to Catholicism or immigrating as a Catholic is considered detrimental to our nation. I find that a troubling perspective and one that is meant to balkanize. And so as our nation collapses are we to resume the Thirty Year's War?
