I think if you did a little searching you would see that MnG encourages ALL participants to be civil and respectful. It isn't a one-way thing.

I haven't seen it. But then again, I haven't searched the past posts. I took the poster to task over one issue. Nothing more. And I stand by it. I haven't seen mercyngrace take posters here to task for their behavior. I have seen no lectures or GA quotes for them to digest. I just hear silence.
The fetish that this board has for dan is obsessive. I would think that mercyngrace would take the board to task over this. I see no love among the critics here, nor do I see mercy or grace. But I do hear the southern critics chirp when it comes to mercyngrace.
Now am I wrong? Maybe. I don't research all posts. I can only go by the posts that I have seen.
I intend to lay a foundation that will revolutionize the whole world. Joseph Smith We are “to feed the hungry, to clothe the naked, to provide for the widow, to dry up the tear of the orphan, to comfort the afflicted, whether in this church, or in any other, or in no church at all…” Joseph Smith

Well, you clearly know about obsessive behavior...

You've been here a few years. M&G only just joined (or only just started participating), and has probably read little of this board. You've copped a right royal hiding from many here (including me), so naturally your views will differ from hers. Give her time, and let her make her own decisions. I'd be disinclined to execute too swift judgement on her.

I asked this earlier, and you haven't responded. (no big surprise)
When have you ever taken a Mormon defender to task for their behavior?
Why are you calling M & G out for something that you yourself are guilty of?
Can you say double standard?
Just simply answer the question. When has Why Me ever taken a Mormon defender to task for their post(s)?
Why should Mercyngrace join in the arguing on the board? Why is it her responsibility to take the board to task? Why shouldn't she be left in peace to interact with those she wants too with being bullied by others with their own agenda? And certainly DCP is perfectly capable of mounting his own defense, setting aside his own participation in the on going hostilities, he fans the flames as skillfully as any critic. It's ironic that the one who whines the most about the tone here attacks one of the posters who sets the kind of tone he describes, and demands Mercyngrace join in and throw gasoline on the fire.
why me wrote:[ And this is why your words ring hollow. You do not chastise your fellow catholic posters for such unchristlike behavior.
Except you are now criticizing Mercyngrace for "chastising her fellow LDS" . So Mercyngrace is wrong for criticizing her fellow LDS for being unkind. I am wrong for not criticizing my fellow Catholics for being unkind. Why is it that you call Mercyngrace to task for criticizing her fellow LDS for un-Christlike behavior while I am called to to task for NOT criticizing my fellow Catholics?
It seems that if I'm all wet and need to be admonished about not correcting my fellows, then Mercyngrace should be complimented when she does what you expect of me.

I have taken daniel to task. I have told him a few times not to take the bait on this board and just let the personal threads about him to die a natural death.
And I would take to task a LDS poster who blasts the catholic church too.

No. The Mormon hating catholics on their forum post crap and attempt to bash any Mormons who want to respond. And most Mormons have left the Mormon hating forums because they were either mocked bashed and dulled into a belief system.

So, in other words, why me has never taken a Mormon apologist to task for bad behavior. Shocking.

Funny, never saw you do that over at CAF. Liar Liar pants on fire!! You sure chimed in with Z's anti Catholic posts, and Diania's too. You NEVER once mentioned anything about their behavior.
As far as you taking Daniel to task, please provide a link. It should be easy to do since it would be in your posting history. That is, if it really exists. You know, like those imaginary nuns and priests you're buddied up with.
by the way, telling someone not to take the bait on a thread is not "taking them to task".
