Hello everyone,

We've decided, for a number of reasons, to close this message board at this time. It began back in September, when military action was merely being contemplated. Now that the war is underway, its justice or injustice is a bit of a moot point, and positions have hardened to the point that it is unlikely anyone will consider or be swayed by the arguments of the other side. That, coupled with the fact that screening these messages takes up a great deal of time, led us to decide to shut it down for now. If any of you regulars wish to obtain each others' emails, you can send them to me at juliez@americancatholic.org and I will forward them to whomever you designate.

Julie
