I have been known to instruct a poster to leave a thread when it is apparent (s)he cannot cope with the "open" Religion Forum debate on that particular thread.

Of all the thread types on the Religion Forum, only "open" RF threads permit posters to contend against deities, beliefs, religious authorities, etc.

Posters who cannot suffer having their deeply held religious beliefs ridiculed, condemned, attacked or dismissed should IGNORE "open" RF threads altogether otherwise they will be offended. They should instead read and post to RF threads labeled "prayer" "devotional" "caucus" or "ecumenical" where antagonism is not allowed.

Posters who have been on the Religion Forum for awhile should know all of this. They should understand that thick skin is required on "open" RF threads, that they must be able to mount cogent arguments in behalf of their beliefs or against the belief of others - despite the noise.

I appreciate your warning, I do, but, through suffering and the daily Eucharist, confession, adoration, and the rosary, I am made of STONE. No one can Truly offend me. But again............I appreciate, and thank you!

Time to hit the sack; G-d love you. :)

Thank you so much for the work you do. This site would not servive without the efforts of the mods. This is the best debate site on the web and it wouldn’t be possible without you all.
