This is a safe haven group. Here's our statement of purpose.

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.

The raid was 12 years ago, to bring it up now is rather puzzling.

This is a safe haven group. You've been around long enough to know what that means. I posted the rules because I couldn't figure out what you were getting at.

No one's recced your post, including me, which should tell you something.

btw, the Bin Laden raid was roughly 12 years ago. I thought MAYBE that was why you posted. Apparently, you didn't know that?

It also took you that long to notice there was a group on Du with the word Catholics in the title. Better late than never, I suppose.

Btw, Atheists and Agnostics is also safe haven. But that's different, right?
