In my post #84 posted the names of all Democrat Catholics in the House and Senate, and said: "Now, you tell me: do you think these horrible people are following God's word, commandments, and law? Do you think they love and submit to Jesus Christ? No? Neither do I." I stand by that. These people are not my brothers and sisters in Christ. Do you really believe that these Obama and Liberal allies are standing up for the Gospel of Jesus Christ? Really? Good heavens - look at their actions, their statements, their votes, their defiance of God. Do you have ears? Do you have eyes?
Moreover, Christ Himself said this:
38“Teacher,” said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of us.” 39 “Do not stop him,” Jesus said. “For no one who does a miracle in my name can in the next moment say anything bad about me, 40 for whoever is not against us is for us. 4o
Mark 9: 38-40
He also said a tree is known by it's fruit. I specifically cited these Democrats as not my brothers and sisters, and I stand by that. These "Catholic Democrats" are not on Christ's side. They are not on my side. Period. Dot.
What you tried to do is a standard liberal technique, which is twist something into the "but you said this" when I never said that in order to attempt to twist the debate in your favor.
Now, if you like, I can debate all of the problems I do have with Catholicism that are not Biblical (i.e. the church as the source of Salvation instead of Jesus, water baptism vs. baptism by faith, "infallibility" of the Pope, the veneration of Mary and her elevation as a co-redemmer and savior, transubstantiation, the sacraments vs. a personal faith in Jesus Christ, and other topics. On those, the Catholic church is on the wrong side of God's word.
Stop being lame and dishonest: You dismissed all Catholics, not just the 54% you cited or the pols you listed. Such a dismissal is decidedly NOT the mark of a follower of Christ.
