In all honesty and fairness you're not the only one who posts articles. Sometimes you are the first one and sometimes you may post something someone else has posted. That can be overwhelming but its not your fault. I think what people need to do is look at whats on the main page and see if its being discussed before posting about it.
All you ever seem to post about is Catholic content. But people on a very specific side of the political spectrum--won't mention which one-- tend to get huffy and assume its American politics because well the Pope is from the United States right? *insert chuckle here* It must be American to consider abortion, adultery, sexual immorality, sin. Not Catholic.
Only American Catholics care about liturgical abuse. *sigh*
Michie all Catholics should care about things that pertain to the Catholic faith but only very few do and those who don't agree with the faith, but still want to call themselves Catholic for whatever reason, will blame it on your posts, blame it on self-righteousness, Pharisaical behaviors, or blame it on America....anything to look into their own eyes and pluck out the plank. That's what I think of this whole argument that you shouldn't post articles.
And then people claiming that you don't ever include your own opinion as if you're a spam bot just posting articles and never visiting your own thread again or responding. You respond a lot and sometimes I don't agree with you, you've seen it....that doesn't mean you don't respond.
And I've seen the threads that die. I've seen their content. Sorry if it was ignored because its not relevant, not interesting or plain old not Catholic but even CC got responses to his thread. Post something people wanna read about, talk about and discuss or don't get mad when someone else does it for you.
And as far as telling Michie not to post about homosexuals then we might wanna apply that to the liberals who post with hot fiery passion any time some so-called religious leader has something to say in favor of their pet sin of the day. Whatever. I don't think we need another subforum for your posts. This is the Catholic subforum you post Catholic articles.
WHY do we need another subforum? Guess how busy any of the other subforums are visited? How much are our own subforums paid attention to? The political one? is it as active as this one? probably not. if your articles got sent to another subforum we might all end up posting in there more and ignoring the main forum where people will just find another reason to complain, right "OBOB main forum is abandoned because obob's article forum is being flooded with spam"
Or would your articles be ignored and obob be abandoned all together because people didn't have anything to talk about except how awesome they felt as people applauded them after the guitar mass and how wonderful altar girls look even though attendance is down. or maybe they wanna talk about how their niece is being liberated through abortion or i dont know whatever else nonsense people want to talk about as long as its not catholic.
As most regulars well know this is not the first time I've tried to work something out. But it just seems nobody really wants to work anything out at all. This is my last attempt. But I am tired that every time someone opens a thread concerning something about OBOB it turns into something that is all my fault. I'm not perfect but I'm not trying to destroy or divide OBOB.
