Pretty sure I know who/what led to this. Individuals like that are exactly why I don’t mess with religion.

Hope you stick around after you take a few days away.

I've seen some make some comments about Christians that were offensive but I chalked it up to ignorance. You see, I was raised that anyone other than a fundamental Christian was going to Hell but as I read the Bible I found out the truth! All you have to do to get to Heaven was accept the Lord Jesus Christ which means any member of any denomination can apply and that includes Catholics who have accepted the Lord.

My oldest was born 1982 and he turned out normal.. i would say most normal was maybe 10 years past that. then the time out gang started..
Na, its not an age issue. Its a discipline issue, and to be honest the comment that spurred the OP's post was by someone older.

Make me a mod. I look at every single post.
I missed it. Was off work sick for a few days and wasn’t on much. We can’t follow every post. The site has gotten that big. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. We need your help to stay on top of things.

I was involved in the thread for its entirety, made several posts in it and even responded to the post that's in question( I assume I'm referring to the correct post, that Catholics aren't Christians), so I didn't miss any of it. From just my own personal point of view, there is literally nothing on this Earth that anyone can say to me to offend me, nothing. I refuse to let it happen. If that's the way someone feels, whether they think it's true or not, that's on them, not on me. If they want to live believing totally opposite of me, that's up to them, doesn't bother me in the least, everyone is entitled to think what they want. Once it hits the keyboard and typed out here, then the forum rules apply, and to be honest, the varying degree to what some do and don't think something is offensive here on OSA varies greatly. Some are offended when a PM isn't replied to and report them, some absolutely nothing gets under their skin, and I'm sitting here waiting on it to be reported, and it never does. As far as the comment in question above, nobody reported any posts from that thread. I disagreed with many of the comments throughout. Christians have been mocked, doubted, persecuted all the way back to......Christ himself, so this is nothing new, and it's also nothing new that one denomination accuses another of being wrong. There are folks on OSA that don't believe in Christ or "religion" at all, some are more vocal about it than others, that's their opinion to voice as they please, as it should be. Like I said in that thread, man and religion have messed up Christianity greatly. So if there's something that's in a post, and it's just not an obvious violation of OSA rules, I'm probably not going to even give it a second look, I just don't get offended. Maybe just my opinion, but I don't think mods should start assuming what someone says might be offensive and delete it "just in case".

Sometimes I certainly disagree with some posts. However, I usually won't post a 'rebuttal' --- they tend to fan a small flame into a raging wildfire. What y'all can't see is my head going from side-to-side in amazement.

There's an old saying, something about trying to teach a pig to dance. It'll just frustrate you and piss off the pig. Seems to be fairly accurate most times.

Carry on.

I was raised catholic but consider myself agnostic. This forum should not really have too much religion involved. It should mainly revolve around the 2nd Amendment. HB I consider you a valued member. We all don't always agree, but that is life in general. Just like work I may not agree/like some of my co-workers I still come to work every day.
