Again - wrong on many counts....but thank you for your input.

Much of what is posted here that disagrees with the prevailing view is categorized as you just did - "rigid trad Catholic" or "GOP operative"  behavior.  Although more traditional than you, I am not rigid; and I am an Independent, not a GOP operative.  

Be careful of labels - it shows your own prejudice.  I wonder if you do not realize what precipitated this discussion between us?  Do you recall pretty much telling people who disagree with the more left leaning thought here to leave?  And yet you would take me to task for questioning that?  Perhaps your apology us in the offing?

And again - peer review is tossing comments aside for disagreement - not civility.
