What constitutes dialogue?

This blog has been an interesting exercise.

What had started as a place for dialogue has turned into a marketplace for paranoid ideas, vicious ranting, and threats about eternal damnation - all in the name of Jesus!

This is not Catholicism as I understand it, and taking the cue from our bishops, I get to make the rules here. So here they are:

No more posts about hell, fire, punishments, catechisms, the Magisterium and no long scripture quotes. No sermonizing, chastising, criticizing or politicizing. If you have a genuine question or concern that you'd like to share, and would welcome intelligent discussion about it, please feel free to post. If not, please start your own blog.
