[Cronos]

I know there are misconceptions with any religion. But Catholicism has historically been a religion, to quote a favorite movie, with six faces and three tongues

your post consists of pure anti-Catholic venom with no firm points, just a rant against the Christian church.

Say, aren't you the same person who said in here

To: Cronos

Peter wasn't the Bishop of Rome. And Pope is the title, not Bishop. Remember "Vicar of Christ". That title came from the Roman Emperors. In place of Christ = antichrist.
Amazing how that works isn't it. Now, are you going to just continue sniping with soundbites and claims or are you going to eventually say something?

That's exactly what you said. That "Vicar of Christ" was a title of the Emperors.

Dave, I'm done with it. If you wish to put words in my mouth that I didn't say instead of dealing with the history, have at it. It is dishonest and peripheral and I'm not going to sit and pick knits with you instead of dealing with the central arguements. This has nothing to do with the central arguments and is a generalization - perhaps overgeneralization that is being sniped at for that very purpose, to distract. Which is why snipes are brought in in the first place - to ask a gazillion general questions, flood the thread with non answers and destroy the cohesion of the debate.

Did I hallucinate post 929? Can anyone else see it? Is it a "generalization" to post your own words and ask you what you mean? Is it a "distraction" to wonder if the things you spout off have any meaning or relation to history?

Is it destructive to the "cohesion" of the debate to ask for backing and clarification for the nonsense you write?

Now, did post 929 mean something or was it just whatever words popped into your mind at athe time, with no relation to reality?

Havoc plays serious havoc with both sanity and truth, my brother. I would not advise wasting your time on it.
