It has commenting rules.
The rules are somewhat generic...mostly. But one is worthy of mention.
After a series of more (or less, in one or two cases) generic "Be courteous" and "Observe reasonable rules of engagement"-type rules, we come to #8, which is completely different:
8. Don’t use the term "anti-Catholic".LOL!
How strange! Of course, one cannot help but wonder why, of all words in the English language, Carrie is troubled by this one. Methinks she doth protest too much. It's not that the word has no meaning: it's a real thing. In apologetics circles, it has a more specific meaning: an anti-Catholic is someone who denies that a faithful Catholic, who believes all that the Church proposes for his belief, can be a true Christian. Clearly this usage is legitimate: there are such people (lots of them; I used to be one of them myself).
I don't know for certain - yet - but one gets the idea from her tone - and from her objection to this term - that Carrie might possibly be fairly described as anti-Catholic. We'll see.
