i can't imagine it was anyone on this board that caused him to leave. . . Actually, it wasn't anyone on this board, unless you count Heeeyyy's minimal involvement. I scanned the entire thread, and it seemed to be SciFive, power ranger, scwimm and liberal something-or-another party. And, given that I'm not British or Irish, there may have been inferences that were lost on me. Though, Father Jack did refer negatively to Cody on another thread, if memory serves. Despite my agnostic atheism, I do like Father Jack, since he's got a soft spot for animals and doesn't appear to condemn anyone for not being Catholic. I've been thoroughly eviscerated on the Politics Board, so I can empathize with his pain.

I'd be willing to bet the farm that Cody has been referred to negatively by about anyone who can type...

When I read the thread I was struck by the unmitigated and targeted comments of others you have mentioned about things which were obviously 'sacred' to Father Jack. They attacked his family, his nationality and his nation's history, referring to cowardice in warfare, inequities of the British treatment of the Irish over time and I found the whole thread disgraceful bullying treatment of a poster who deserved nothing of the kind of inaccurate ignorant portrayal and complexities of the Irish question. No wonder he got pissed off and self deleted. There are some really nasty people on the Politics Board.

The idea should be to not get drawn into long & endless conversations. I have had them before and I know it becomes agonizing. That very thing was happening with father Jack. He wrote something and some people started deriding him. It went on and on. Now, this is internet and there are a hell lot of people who post here just for shits & giggles. They don't even care that some people actually mean to be serious and want to convey a serious thought that they think may help humanity. Old Sam Vimes for example even agrees that he posts things for fun and many times doesn't even agree with things he writes himself. And some others could actually mean what they write and what they write maybe something nasty. There's a lot of those 2 types on politics board and even here. For past sometime, I have not even tried to get into an argument. If someone says something that I believe is unreasonable then I just move on. Father Jack should have done that too though I don't blame him for being a human.
Therein lies the difference. Father Jack seemed to be one of the genuine ones that cared about his fellow man, and animals. I never thought I would bond with a Roman Catholic, being the Agnostic Atheist that I am, but he and I were the only vegan/vegetarians on here (that I knew of) and that sincere concern for both man and animal was a positive thing. He is back now. His new username is Ned Kelly.

Can we all just move on and forget about it the now please. It is by forgiving others that we will be forgiven ourselves.
All I will say is that that board is a festering boil on this forum. A place rife with racism, bigotry, and hatred, not to be even clicked on... How the admin of IMDB V2 don't wipe the entire board from the site I don't know.

I must say, you didn't stay away as long as I thought you would. I figured you'd give it at least a week, moping as if some skateboarder bumped into you and made you spill your nachos on the sidewalk.

It's a saints feast day and a solemnity. Can we have a bit of decorum and respect?

St Joseph is Jesus Christ's foster father. We take his feast day seriously in the Catholic faith. You Proddies are really disrespectful at times, you know that?

I'm not a Protestant. I'm nondenominational. You talk about respect. How about remembering that respect is a two-way street?

You say that, but you warn good Catholics about going to hell, you disrespect a solemn saints Day Mass, Mary's husband and the foster father of Jesus himself no less. Your nondenomination sure seems Protestant 🤷

I had a word with himself on your behalf at Mass this evening. He says you may have given up on yourself, but he hasn't.
