I’ve not posted as much as formerly the last few weeks due to the immature behavior of a certain person, formerly known as Croix, but it may be another person(s) as well. I do not engage in puerile behavior more suited to platforms like TikTok, X, or FB. This person(s) is unable/unwilling to have an adult conversation. Instead of responding thoughtfully, he name-calls, makes false accusations about others (and myself) pertaining to matters he cannot possibly know. In particular, I do not think I’m alone in not wishing to read about or be called crypto-Jew, Boomer, feminist, fαɢɢօt, mutt, commie, libtard, bastard, (insulting my deceased parents), immodest, etc.
While each has his own opinion as to whether he likes, dislikes, Jews, Blacks, people of nationalities other than 100% White, that is not the reason Matthew created this forum.
To quote from the bottom of this page, CathInfo “is a message board with Catholic news and information for traditional Catholics living in the modern world.”
What I’m seeing recently is multiple threads whose main topics are about the superiority or inferiority of those of a certain races and ethnic backgrounds, not as they relate mainly to Catholicism, but to the poster’s personal opinion presented as if he speaks for God, Himself. Those who disagree or attempt to redirect the conversation towards intelligent, Christ-like discourse get called names.
This person knows who he is. I’m calling for him to censor himself or to get off of CI. Find a forum that centers upon those of like opinions and manners of expression about those topics in particular.
If his goal is to drive all others away and/or to cause Matthew to shut down CI, WHY? Remember, we are all answerable to Christ at our particular judgments for every idle word. Just because the internet didn’t exist at the time Our Lord gave this warning does not exclude our speech used online. If he has some sort of anger problem, hatred in his heart towards those who wronged him, or is perhaps a 13 year old in an adult body, he should get counseling from a priest or a older man who is proven himself wise.
(If I wanted to deal with immature middle school boys, I could easily update my NYS 6-8 teacher’s certification and get a job in the public middle school ten blocks from my house. School is starting soon and public schools, middle through high school, are lacking teachers and applicants.)
IOW, Croix, Soft Pillow, or whoever you are, stick to topics as related to Catholicism, and speak like an adult.
