Thanks for the memories, but it's time for Christians to unite not fight

For God so loved the world he sent a book.

He certainly did...After Jesus went to heaven, he sent the Holy Spirit who was charged with bringing to remembrance of what Jesus said to people that he inspired to write down the words of God...To be preserved forever...

Those words have now been around (OT and New) for thousands of years...

Without that book, your religion would still be worshiping Diana,,,Oh wait!!!

Perhaps the definition of "personal attacks" might be altered to include one's religion, given that followers take it as a personal attack?

What a bunch of garbage.

I will post threads from time to time on a topic I think might be interesting. I used to try and review the articles closely to make sure they didn't mention any other denomination so I could post them as caucus threads. Almost every thread was protested by Roman Catholics to the RM. I even had a RC protest that the Apostles Creed was written by the Roman Catholic Church and the thread couldn't be a caucus because of it.

On one occasion I posted a thread as a Caucus thread which mentioned the Reformed. Instead of being contacted by the RM. A Reformed believer mailed me and pointed out what he thought was an error.

It's clear to me that RC's can play the "victim card" with the best of them, but it doesn't mean it's true. My experience has been that RC's start claiming they're being "bashed" when a Christian quotes Scripture.

I am aware that the owner of this site, Mr. Robinson, is a Catholic, and I’m sure it breaks his heart to see such infighting amongst fellow Christians.

It seems RCs want to claim everyone of high esteem as their own, but i have never seen any substantiation for this one, but only things that infer the contrary. Yet i am not going to both Jim with more pings than he already has.

Don’t go! You singled me out (it brought tears to my eyes) so please let me plead with you not to leave! Let’s not give in to the bigots! Please write me privately if you don’t feel like posting.

As if its one sided (i have lot of anti-Prot scorn quotes), and most of the responses to RCs by Prots have been due to RCs using FR as news and polemics organ for their church.

But the Lord called people harsher names than you showed. Yet as the RM says, "If you can't take the heat.."

LOL.

A brief perusal of your posting history tells me how ecumenical you are.

Good night.

Forget the Inquisition. We'd better wake up soon because Obama is inviting Islam in and believers, all of us!, are the main course at his table.

Interesting that this would be brought up by a RC. It's the RCC that believes muslims worships the same God that Christians worship. It's the RCC that doesn't support stopping illegal immigration. It's the current head of the RCC that thinks capitalism and profit are bad.

I know in my heart that my fellow Born Again Christians will be there with me to fight the enemy at the gates. It's not majority Evangelical Christian states that vote for liberalism. It's states that are majority RC that are voting for liberalism.

Time to clean your house before you condemn mine.

By any chance did you keep any of those posts where some folks were posting happy thoughts of bringing back the inquisition to deal with the “protestant problem?”

Your words do not fall on deaf ears. I’m a “newbie” and have been very surprised by religious attacks. In particular, anti-catholic hatred is like a sport here. Very confusing at a time when the values we all love are under attack. Very confusing.

You must be a RC, as for years we have endured incessant RC postings about their church, and objections to it includes the response to post your own. So a couple Prots have been but RCs are the largest whiners and victim card users on the RM,.

Yes, I did, because that post was particularly vile. Obviously, I was not the only one who found that post vile and offensive, because it's featured by the sweet poster of this thread, in bold.

And you didn't even ping the person you are attacking either!

I wonder, would you call a post vile and offensive if someone had said instead:

"Protestantism has sent more people to hell than Islam."

Because we have seen this and much worse posted by Catholics on the Religion Forum on a pretty regular basis and seem to deal with it pretty well. We aren't calling for a mutiny of Free Republic, the abolishment of the Religion Forum or criticizing and calling into question the motives and effectiveness of the Religion Moderators.

We are supposed to be adults here and have been forewarned that the RF is a town-square type of format where contrary beliefs can be expressed. I'd suggest, for those who cannot tolerate having their religion criticized, they should stay away from the RF.

And while I AM a believer in Christ, I am a Gnostic. You may need to sit down for a while to digest that heresy!

Is it heretical to say your own beliefs are heretical:)

I am curious as I have never seen you post your Gnostic views. I thought the Catholics did all the Gnostics in centuries ago .

You are one of the ones who uses probably the MOST bandwidth EVERY single day to post your pro-Catholic threads on the Religion Forum and you have the nerve to try and blackmail Free Republic for allowing the free expression of religion??? Give me a break!

This thread is in the Smoky Backroom so Religion Forum guidelines do not apply. That said, thick skin is required for ‘open’ RF debate. Posters who get offended when their beliefs are deplored or ridiculed - or if they take things personally - should IGNORE open RF threads altogether and instead post to RF threads labeled caucus, ecumenical, devotional or prayer.

We have seen such things as
thanking God the Spanish Inquisition was up to the task,
that Protestantism is belief in one’s self, and
absolutely alien to Christianity, and that,
Protestants are mostly biblically illiterate,
intellectually dishonest,
evil fruit, who
don’t have the Holy Spirit, and
are not part of the Body of Christ, and
who have no foundation for their understanding of Christianity, and
will not be saved unless they becomes a member of the Catholic Church, and
are by inclination vandals whio should be eradicated from the face of the earth,

But that Catholics never put down or challenge beliefs from protestants, and that,
there never has been a bit of anti-protestant bigotry on FR,
and have seen a Catholic teaching proven false.

Eyes have they but see not.
