This page is open to all ages with access to the Internet including the diocesan youth, inappropriate language will result in posts or comments being removed. Disrespectful and overly critical comments are not acceptable. Period. Disagreement and differing points of view are fine. They are part of life, and life would be very boring if we all thought the same way. Feel free to discuss and disagree, but be respectful. Life’s hard enough as it is – let’s keep things pleasant. This is a ‘no troll’ zone. Trolls will most likely be ignored, or have their comments removed if we consider their comments likely to be offensive to our visitors. Repeat offenders will be blocked. Be careful to only speak for yourself – don’t tell us what you think other posters are thinking – let them tell us themselves. In plain English: be nice. It’s that simple.
