Please don't ping me to your ecumenical thread.

Rhetorical advantage is gained by asserting a point of known controversy, and controversy shut off by the "ecumenical" label.

I've seen worse. I don't see any point in playing.

What exactly do you find controversial in this reading about the lives of the Maccabees?

Well said.

Cronos, do not ping me to any further ecumenical threads, whether you posted them or not.

Controversy is not disallowed. Antagonism is disallowed. Interesting that some think that controversy automatically must mean antagonism.
