Catholic institutions preyed on needy kids

LOL, Ray!

Debbie, you're right, Ceridwyn is Anna Hawthorne.

No, Ceridwyn, you are wrong.  It's YOU who seem to have a problem with differing opinions.  I've not seen in any of your postings where anyone attacked or belittled any idea or comment that you posted, like you have done in this thread.  If people here are upset with you, it's because of the condescending tone you sprinkle on your comments with your choice of words.

Most of the people on this forum have been here many months and are often miles apart when it comes to differing opinions about something.  But the culture that has been set here is one of respect, civility, politeness and discretion.  And the "sugar coated mumbling agreement" you're so quick to deride is part of the conversation.  But it is, in fact, more important, once in a while, to sugar coat your disagreement, AKA tact, in order to respect the dignity of the person you're disagreeing with.

This is, of course, the internet, and anyone expressing anything in any way is bound to come around these parts now and again.  And you can go ahead and speak your mind, but if you choose to be arrogant and disdainful in your postings, be prepared to be taken to task for it, or as Ron pointed out, completely ignored.
