A mistake in judgment was made. Think about it logically.

Perhaps the article needs to be read through more thoroughly before being posted.

We had another thread where a poster alleged in the copying /pasting of an article the key phrase mentioning another denomination was left out and was arguing for the caucus protection.

All I'm saying is if one is going to use the Caucus thread....go by the rules.

This is not labeled Caucus in the title.

The article notes two other religious groups.....the Pharisees and Herodians. Neither of those are Roman Catholic.

The law keeping, Christ rejecting, Orthodox Jews, from Israel, are out there too. I met one at Gaisano Mall, Toril the other day. If you ever had a stereotype of what an Orthodox Jew from Israel would look like, this dude fit it perfectly. His English was good, and I said I wished I could go to Bethlehem to see where Jesus of Nazareth was born. I could tell that made him uneasy. He just said he tried to keep the law, and was still waiting for the Messiah. He did tell me, that it was not too safe for foreigners in Bethlehem, however. Too many jihadis there. So yes, this guy would fit my definition of a Pharisee. 😁

And again you bring absolutely nothing to the conversation.

So, let’s discuss this. What you did was break into a caucus thread because it mentioned Pharisees, and that contributed to the conversation in what way. Get another hobby! I’m going to do some bow practice to get ready for some bull elk killin’ in September. You just continue making sure that the Pharisees can comment on Catholic threads, that’s a great contribution!

I hope you bow hunt better than you debate. But I think the elk are safe.

Well, you spend your time harassing Catholics, I shoot and hunt. I am sitting in my modest living room with kudu and gemsbuck from Namibia, a 175 pt whitetail, a grizz from BC, a caribou from Alaska, and a red hartebeest.

I don’t claim to have debate skills, especially with you. Go back to harassing Catholics, my hobby isn’t screwing around on the internet. Internet tough guys are a dime a dozen, fat, slovenly, and borderline retarded. They are bad on the internet, but in real life, well, you know what they are! I’m gone!

What did you add to the debate, Pharisee?

I think everyone would agree with that.

Go back to harassing Catholics, my hobby isn’t screwing around on the internet.

Yet you continue to post....

Internet tough guys are a dime a dozen, fat, slovenly, and borderline retarded.

Proving yet again it is usually the Roman Catholic who is the first, though not always, to resort to the personal attack and/or profanity when the argument goes against them.

They are bad on the internet, but in real life, well, you know what they are! I’m gone!

Thanks for that autobiography. We'll remember that going forward.

Your life must really suck, to spend all your spare time trying to bring others down to your level.

I honestly feel sorry for people with such low self esteem. In your case it’s deserved. I won’t be bothered with your nonsense again, so continue your idiocy.

You know...for someone who said they're "hobby isn't screwing around on the internet", you seem to keep coming back for more.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

In your case it’s deserved. I won’t be bothered with your nonsense again, so continue your idiocy.

Continuing to prove my prior point of the Roman Catholic resorting to the personal attack when the argument goes against them.

I bet you won't let this go and will post again. Further, I'll bet you'll post to me again on another thread going forward.

Playground rules....put up or hush up.

Ball is in your court, junior.
