Need I give a reason?

It's pretty simple, actually. He was banned for trolling. I read over many of his posts, and nowhere could I discern a traditional Catholic position. This is a traditional Catholic board. So any fervent Novus Ordo Catholic HOSTILE to tradition, as aquinasG was, would only join a board like CathInfo to "troll".

Novus Ordo Catholics are welcome to come here and ask questions, etc. and they will be presumed to be of good will. That is, until we see otherwise, as was the case with AquinasG.

The definition of "troll" is someone who joins a board just to get a rise out of all or most of the membership, by taking views calculated to inflame passions.

For example, if I joined a Democratic message board claiming to be a staunch Republican, or a Jєωιѕн forum claiming to be a neo-nαzι. Basically, trolling is a behavior frequently seen in teenagers -- those who are bored, who like to mess with people and get reactions from them. Those who don't have a life.

I don't mind arguing with a Novus Ordo person, a Muslim, a pagan, or whoever, if there is actually some back-and-forth in the debate. This character, however, would never concede a point even if he had already been shown he was wrong several times. He would continue to say stuff like " You still haven't shown me any proof of modernist thinking at Vat2" when other posters had long ago shown him the irrefutable evidence.

Also, he wanted to twist and contort the writings of great Saints and Doctors to mean other than what they intended, and would not give in even when he was shown that those same Saints and Doctors had on other occasions spoken quite clearly on those same matters.

In other words, he was a troll. He reminds me of some tedious jackasses over on Catholic Answers Forum who keep insisting that absolutely nothing has changed in the Church in the last fifty years.  :roll-laugh1:

Thanks for banning him, Matthew. He definitely had no place on this forum.

St. Jude Thaddeus, it's funny you say he reminds you of someone on "Catholic" Answers, because aquinas says he was banned from there! LOL.

More evidence that he was just a garden-variety troll.

On Catholic Answers, he probably talked up Tradition to tick everybody off.

He says he made a comment about the NO that people didn't like, so you're probably right.

He was also banned from Bellarmine forums a few days ago. Maybe he's seeing how many forums he can be banned from.
