Now, would you think it proper to call any other human than Mary, “our life, our sweetness, and our hope”? Why or why not? We who are born-again, evangelical Christians call Jesus “our life,” “our sweetness,” and “our hope,” and won’t call anyone else that.

What I would suggest to you (and every other NCC who loves this site) is to pray to Jesus, "our life," "our sweetness," and "our hope," and ask Him to work on the Free Republic Religion Forum, that it be run in a way pleasing to Him.

I, myself, ask Jesus frequently, through adoration, to do the same thing. :)

What a slam at the management.

They are doing a fantastic job at running the religion forum. Just because Catholics aren't favored doesn't mean they are doing a poor job. I think the RM is one of the most even handed, unbiased mods around and I say that having been chastised myself (deservedly so) often enough.

I don't see the point in praying for what already exists and that is also a not so subtle dig at them stating that they are NOT doing the job of running the RF in a way that is pleasing to God.

Perhaps your prayers would be better offered that people would manage their own words and behavior better instead of expecting an outside source to control them. People need to quit whining about bias and running crying to the mod over the least little perceived slight, and exercise a little self-control with their language and opinions.

I'm sure the RM is sick of hearing people whine the equivalent of *MOMMMMYYYYY, he's LOOKING at me!!!!! Make him stop."

The RM is not an instrument of control over others who disagree with you or Catholics and I appreciate and applaud him for not letting himself be used as such.

If Catholics don't like my opinions about Catholicism, that's too bad. I am free to express them exactly as Catholics are free to express their opinions about non-Catholics and other religions.

RM, thanks for the even handedness and if I've ever added to your burden of managing this forum, forgive me.

Still griping about the site moderation, and in a syrupy religious-sounding kind of posting.
