This is the thing. I’m not really that liberal. Economically, sure, I’m a bit to the left of many people because I don’t believe in individualistic capitalism (as the Catechism says) but I do believe in capitalism. When it comes to public morals, I’m quite conservative.You must feel alone in your opinions. You are not. However, this is not a pollitical argument. I see it differently. I apologize if you feel picked on being a liberal, if that is what you are getting at. I think that being liberal in caring about others and in some areas of social thinking is good. However, liberal politics as a whole make me angry.
Which I welcome!If your unpopular opinion is against Catholic teaching you won’t stand a chance on this forum. Most people here adhere to the catechism. When the catechism gets involved, then our political allegiance falls by the wayside. When you go on unpolitical threads and you will see some of us that never agree on politics are totally in allignment with each other on matters of greater importance.

On the other hand, I really don’t buy the Republicans “morals” stance because I believe their politically motivated so as to marry Christian morals to corporatist economics (but not real capitalism). Never a good thing.
I’m not speaking to mods. I’m speaking to this “gang up on the guy we disagree with” method that would drive anyone but the most stout hearted away screaming for mercy as they go.No one should be insulting to anyone. Sarcasm is allowed until it is vicious. When you feel that the moderators are missing something, then you need to point it out to them. They have the final word and they are very good.
