(5,370 posts)Non-Catholics come in here all the time, nonetheless, usually with something not so nice to say. Very little we can do about it, given there are no mods anymore.
Your post is unlike any other I have seen, so at this point I will simply acquaint you with the group's rules.
"Welcome to the Catholic & Orthodox Group. This is a safe haven group where discussions about Catholicism and Orthodoxy take place in a forum free from gratuitous attacks or derision of religion and religious beliefs. There are other places for those who really like to do that. Our focus is on the beliefs and traditions of Catholicism and Orthodoxy. For the rest, welcome, and pax vobiscum. Peace be among you.
"Constructive criticism of the politics of the Catholic hierarchy is permitted, but no incendiary attacks on the Catholic and/or Orthodox faiths will be tolerated."

(5,370 posts)Probably because they're in Spanish. Don't know that many DUers speak fluent Spanish, Catholic or not.

(5,370 posts)As any Black Catholic would tell you.
Since you are unable to understand what this group is about -- in spite of my best efforts -- you will become yet another person to put on ignore. So long.

No Vested Interest
(5,202 posts)Puts "Respect" at the top of their initial comments.
Perhaps the Catholicism group could/should do the same.

(5,370 posts)But Safe Haven is apparently meaningless when it comes to this group. So I guess you'll do what you want.

(5,370 posts)Pure and simple. I worship with them every Sunday. I'm one of only four white Catholics in my parish. The only white Catholic in the church choir.
I cannot imagine any of my fellow parishioners wanting a group especially for them. But if you want to petition DU to create one, no one's stopping you.
On second thought, you might ask for a group for Santeria or Brujeria. Don't know how many of them are on DU, but there might be some.
Good luck.
