I’m not sure what to make of this. When I first heard about this, I didn’t know why Ryan did it. I still don’t, but I sure don’t know why this priest would decide to fight Ryan over it. I didn’t think priests were supposed to engage in politics. This might be telling us at least something about why Ryan did what he did. I didn’t want to hear it before, but now I do.
 
Perhaps if you would stop making attacks on other posters then people would not have to call you on it?
Says the attacker who jumped me in this thread (and in another) gratuitously to settle an old score.

There you go again with your mind reading. I have news for you, you cannot read my mind so don’t bother trying.
 
But false witness is not based on the objective truth or falsity of the assertion, but on that and the intent to make a false statement.
I think of intentional in things like lying. But not on the issues of whether an objective claim made against someone is false (or true). That, ISTM, is just a matter of fact.
I’m sure you …
Yet another failed mind reading attempt.
 
You make an accusation and then you petulantly refuse to back up the accusation and then when called on it you resort to name calling. Nice.
Unlike you, I don’t keep old posts or go back and research them. I’m not going to do it. I have no recollection of all your posts about Melania or any of the other hateful things you have said because I don’t keep grudges like you do. Just because you’re a college professor or something it doesn’t make you the smartest person on CAF. It does not make you a moral authority about anything, and it sure doesn’t give you leave to be as mean on here as you are…and not only to me.
 
Paul Ryan has accepted Conroy’s resignation reversal, that Washington Post article I linked a couple posts back will be updated with the details. I hope Ryan has learned something from this.

Does anyone know what Ryan’s reasons were in the first place? To my knowledge, he has never said.

Let me summarize them for you: …

I never said anything about Melania on these forums, yet you accuse me of insulting her. So before you make accusations, make sure you get your facts straight first.

It’s been widely reported and confirmed by Conroy that Ryan and other Republicans seem to have had a problem with a prayer he gave that encouraged legislators to benefit all Americans with their tax bill.

I would volunteer for a savage beating before I would volunteer to get into your mind.
I would hope you would be smart enough to know that you cannot say anything about my motives. But perhaps I am a hopeless optimist.

Actually, I think your main scream attacks against me were when I called some of your hateful posts “hateful”. You just keep proving it, over and over again. This isn’t about Melania. This is about hatefulness on your part.

Remember, I offered to let it all drop, but you wouldn’t do it. You keep grudges forever, it appears. Keep them if your mind won’t let you let go of them. Just leave me alone.

This really is one of our ancient, now moldy arguments that isn’t just you calling me names. I maintain that people can and do reveal themselves, including their motives, in their utterances. Indeed, we humans have no other way to understand another in the absence of physical presence.

So the question is, what was your purpose in accusing me of insulting Melania? Particularly when I never said a word about her one way or another? You don’t deny the accusation, so why did you do it?

Nobody forces you to post here.

Being Prof. Stinkcat here. since you didn’t deny being hateful, that one sticks. Now, professor, that you have admitted being hatful, why do you insist on remaining hateful?

I have denied being hateful on plenty of occasions. You have never denied that you have accused me of hateful comments towards Trump and insulting Melania. You have never backed up either accusation.
