Whip it
into shape
go forward
move ahead...........
move along.......nothing to see here.......
Let's not start making this a debate on whether or not Medjugorje should or shouldn't be discussed. If you want to discuss it, by all means, open up a thread.
As a matter of fact, you can even open a "discussion" thread on Fatina, Guadaloupe, Lourdes, and all the other approved and non-approved Apparition sites you want. Geez....there was even a thread on the image of Jesus on a grilled cheese sandwhich.
The point being, as David state earlier, it has been discussed amongst the Staff. Policy was set. Enough said. End of discussion.
Yes, I am aware of the thread you are speaking of. I was intensively reading it up to a point.There was a thread on Medjugorje.....it was closed and not reopened.

That thread and all related to it is in the hands of the admins not the OBOB mods. As stated in the thread closing:
I will then kick the re-opening of this thread to the team admins to avoid any accusation of a conflict of interest
So that situation is in the hands of all the admins. Threads can still debate it as long as the debate it (the apparitions) and not staff actions.
I personally have entered the debates only to ask for clarifications on some points. I have remained out of them so If I need to make a call I can clearly. I have read them and I have, of course, studied (Long before this) the Church's teaching on private revelation and how the Church makes Her decisions on these matters. But I have intentionally stayed out of the debates on this aside from clarification and to briefly state my own view on what messages I personally use for reflection (ie. Lourdes, Fatima and such)
You sleep? Who said you could sleep? You don't get to sleep you need to be here 24/7 to take care of us, you got that?I see OBOB is in safe hands while I sleep
LLOJ....Now sees the time to strike!!!!I see OBOB is in safe hands while I sleep
I'm flattered.... I thinkYou sleep? Who said you could sleep? You don't get to sleep you need to be here 24/7 to take care of us, you got that?

Okay, I stayed out of OBOB for rest of the day....and I have had time to cool down. From now on I will go thru proper channels or proceedures to voice my complaints. But in having doing so before, and getting zippo feedback or my concerns addressed.....I am well, just jaded.
This is very personal for me....my parish has been ripped apart by Pro-Medjugorje and the CCR movement....which seem to go hand in hand.
Peace be with you....Pam
you haven't been doing much to hide your irritation david. I know moderating can be thankless and it's annoying when all people do is complain, but still.
