I may disagree with you on some core issues, but it is great to see someone - even when I disagree with them - hold a position with integrity.

Oh God, another thread on abortion.

Perhaps we could appoint a Mod to ''terminate'' abortion threads before they get to a certain number of replies?

Can you find a more impartial version than the rant at the core of the OP link?

I learnt my lesson.

Completely off-topic, so apols, and back to double standards. (So maybe not that far off-topic after all...)

I don't care whether it was personal or not. Clearly it couldn't be as I have no history with Sync. It's the fact that it was based on a value judgement on the content of my OP rather than any rules.

Sync's post while closing the thread was:

"Or we can close it. Don't use actors twitter messages to open health threads thanks."

Last post from me.

Instead of waffling, your opinion would have some credibility if you highlighted the attempts by that other poster when he attempts
to parse the posted words of other P.ie members who's views he happens to disagree with across numerous threads.

It borders on the hysterical. Amusing to see the usual wasps around the jam.

A body that views itself as the supreme representative body of 'god' who for a millenia dictated down the very last detail how people should live their lifes and claims to be a 'moral guardian' gets caught not practicing what they preach and you're rather poorly trying to wave it away as a non-story on a forum where if the party concerned wasn't the Catholic church would be putting the booth in yourself.

Gerrup the garden will ye.
