Anti-Catholic Discussions
Why is it that whenever a thread or discussion starts off as an anti-Catholic conversation, the anti-Catholic forces eventually turn on each other? I have seen this time and time again.
A few examples: On Paltalk there is a room called “No Salvation in Roman Catholicism.” Just so you know, I rarely enter the room because while there are rational and charitable folks who oppose the Catholic Church, this room is not run by them, but by ignorant, sarcastic, troublemakers. Anyway, it seems like they start off united against us Catholics but eventually they turn on each other, devouring one another about the Trinity, Calvinism, and so forth. Also, Chad recently e-mailed me a discussion he was having on a forum (the same forum as his recent post on his blog, but a different thread). The first 15 pages of discussion stayed on topic about Catholicism, but the last 2 pages are members of the same church turning on each other and bickering about the proper way to appoint leaders.
The moral here: If you are in the middle of an anti-Catholic discussion, just wait it out a little and the same folks will soon devour someone of their “own kind.” Soon, they won’t even notice you!

hmmm. interesting observation. no doubt there is a peculiar passion involved in turning these people into tools of vitriol?
how did you set up this beautiful webpage, by the way, and how can I bail on Typepad and make my own?

Gregory,
Sorry this comment got stuck in the spam filter until now. I didn’t even know I had a spam filter, lol. This is wordpress, which comes with yahoo.com webhosting for free. Its just a matter of finding a company that offers it. I am getting rid of typepad too. This blog is already included in the ancient-future.net domain costs.
