Which poster do the CA rank and file regulars find the most troubling: Poche, Jayne, or Greg? I have entertained myself over the years watching some here go apoplectic over the aforementioned posters. Are Jayne and Greg banned as well?

poche, is that you?   :laugh1:

No, the decision wasn't based on the fact that people went "apoplectic" over something.  Apoplexy, as you put it, often simply has to do with the issue at hand.  So, for instance, JayneK mixed it up with flat earthers and also took a position regarding the discipline of wives that some strongly disagreed with, and these can be hot-button issues.

I know of two posters here who irritate me much more than poche ever did, but I've never called for them to be banned since they have done nothing that was objectively ban-worthy.  Getting under my skin because of how they think or post, etc., is not worthy of a ban.  Out of charity, I won't name them here, but they probably know who they are.  Neither of them have lied and distorted and also promoted error/heresy condemned by the Church.  Nor have Jayne or Greg.

Greg (ggreg) is a closeted agnostic. A number of his posts suggested disbelief in God and lacking the Catholic Faith.

Like Poche, Lenoard Nimoy was Jєωιѕн.

Overall, Spork is a bad avatar for a traditional Catholic forum.

Here's why:

Leonard Nimoy revealed in an interview how a Jєωιѕн (Kabalah) hand sign, signifying the feminine aspect of God
was used for the Vulcan greeting, which has been used by unwittingly by thousands of people.

Leonard Nimoy was synonymous with the Vulcan hand salute, to 'Live Long and Prosper,' but even the most dedicated Trekkies are completely unaware of the Jєωιѕн origins of the famous greeting and its personal significance to the actor.

Nimoy, the son of a barber, was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on 26 March 1931 to Ukrainian immigrants who were Orthodox Jews. The actor first saw what would later become the Vulcan salute, as a child during an Orthodox Jєωιѕн ѕуηαgσgυє service in Boston.

Nimoy first witnessed the gesture as part of a religious Jєωιѕн blessing. In a 2013 interview with the National Yiddish Book Centre he recalled how the memory of the moment never left him.

The sign is made during a ritual made by the priests and when instructed to not look which he didn't at first, but then as a young child took a peek and it had stayed with him. So when the time came when the first Vulcans recogised others of their race, a special greeting became necessary, Nimoy suggested the Shin sign.

"I think we should have some special greeting that Vulcans do," Nimoy recalled saying. He suggested the prayer gesture from his childhood. "Boy," he said, "that just took off. It just touched a magic chord."

He further noted that "most people to this day still don't know. People don't realize they're blessing each other with this!"
