Dear David,
I'll miss you important observations and voice here at beliefnet. I am a big fan of your writing, appreciate your perspective, and have admired your fortitude in the face of the downright nasty comments left by some readers. May God continue to bless you with the gifts of vision, knowledge, and clarity.

I'm sorry to see you leave this site.
David:
Good luck to you in your new assignment. Facing a new writing challenge is always exciting!
God bless,
Peter
Congratulations and thank you for your sharing your thoughts with your readers. I may not have always agreed with you, but always enjoyed your writing. I hope that, despite the nastiness of some in the comboxes, you found many more friends than foes here. May God bless your new endeavors!
Congratulations on your new gig, David!
I'll follow you over there, and look forward to more lively commentary from your perspective.
You've been greatly missed here. Hope your vacation was grand!
Cindy
God Bless and the best of luck David
Oh damn, just when I was getting used to you. Well, best of luck in another market.
(Sorry, I just couldn't resist it.)
Good Luck and Congrats, David. May your new challenge turn out to be everything you hoped for. You will be missed here.
Nooooooooooo, don't leave us!!!!!
Okay, I understand. The time comes for everyone. But I sure will miss your pontificating.
Good luck in your newest incarnation!
I am glad you got the opportunity and I hope you do well. I wish Beliefnet would have more Catholic bloggers. Now than Amy Welborn is on a break, the only one they have is the former-Catholic Rod Dreher. A shame!
Thank you for all your inspiring thoughts and comments, they have given me much to ponder. I am sure you will continue to speak into the hearts and minds of your readers.
David,
Congratulations! Now I can say what I really think at Politicsdaily!
You're leaving us with nothing but Amy Welborn? Great, now there will be no moderate/progressive Catholic voice on this site. Can't you suggest some good folks to Beliefnet who might replace you? Please don't leave us with just the "my way or highway" folks...
David, I've just seen this after my own vacation and related absences. Switching my RSS feeds right now. All the best at PoliticsDaily.com!
