Sounds like something I should avoid.

My Dunker Baptist great-great grandfather donated the land for the Catholic Church in Lisbon Iowa in the 1880s.

We need to focus on Christ - again.

Avoiding that kind of unpleasantness has its merits. Otoh, there is an argument for involvement as well. For example, here is something I have never seen posted on the RF: It’s okay to disagree with and/or reject Luther’s critique of Catholicism, but it’s not okay to hate Luther, the man. Christians must hate the sin but love the sinner, without exception.’

Coming from an Evangelical, such a comment would likely be ignored. Coming from a Catholic...well, it’s impossible to say. It’s never, to my knowledge, been tried.

And the BEST way to do THAT is to call upon his Mother for help.
