I can't even remember when was the last time I saw a "Protestant Caucus" thread. I just don't see the need for posting a thread to a DISCUSSION site like Free Republic then forbidding people to chime in.

A few years ago, a long time non-Catholic Freeper posted some threads on the Religion Forum that were positive about the Reformation and Evangelical/Protestant doctrines in opposition to Roman Catholicism and some RCs were so incensed by them they were able to get the threads deleted AND the poster zotted. I was so disheartened, I stopped donating for a bit in protest. It was completely uncalled for as what she posted was no worse than many of the Roman Catholic threads that criticize Protestants that STILL find their way here.

For a religion that boasts of its longevity, strength and exclusivity, you would think they could tolerate some disagreement as well as be able to defend their beliefs without calling others "haters", "anti-Catholics" and insulting. I'd be curious to see how their donations match up against the non-Cath's.

It's a good thing Paul didn't have the "caucus" thread protection while he was advancing the Gospel!

Yes that was not right.

Now one of their own posts almost daily hate filled articles and posts about their pope and it is OK

When we even mentioned something negative about their pope our comments would be removed.

What hypocrites!

It’s amazing that Catholics hate their pope (who they call the Vicar of Christ) so much but stay with the denomination that their hated heretical pope is the HEAD OF!

So true!

The Catholics of FR back then had a LOT of POWER in the Moderating arena!!

They pine for the old days; in more ways than one!
