Ah, so if I say Kmart isn't walmart no matter how much it tries to look like it. That is Bigoted? No. It is the truth. Something that apparently smarts a bit to you in order to cause you to lash out in foulness instead of addressing the actual differences - glaring differences - that exist. You evidently can't amicably discuss your religion. And you continually proceed upon the false assumption that anyone bears you malice by stating the facts. I've noted that you have every right to your religious beliefs. Nobody is denying you that, threatening or berating you for having a different religion. I'm merely taking you to task on the notion that you're christian just because you claim to be. If the only differences we had were such things how long a man's hair can be or whether one should wear a tie or not, I'd say there isn't a difference. But we aren't seperated by such trivial matters as those. What seperates us is a gulf defined by two entirely different and seperate forms of salvation - the central issue. The system of salvation is different. The definition of sin between Christianity and Catholicism is different. In Christianity, All christians are priests. In Catholicism, though scripture proclaims that so, that very notion is anathema. I can go on and on, right down to specifics like whether a man of God has the right to stand in mortal judgement over another human being. Christ said let he who is without sin cast the first stone and that he who lived by the sword shall die by it (put your weapon down Peter). Catholicism on the other hand, says it's heresy to say that it's against the Holy Spirit to stand in mortal judgement over another man. Who is the catholic church to contradict God?!
I understand that it is uncomfortable to have guys like me out here that aren't afraid to speak the truth whilest your religion is busy trying very hard to pull the wool over everyone's eyes and blur the distinctions by concentrating on matters of piety and hiding the differences. Ooh how bigoted it is to say that a frog and an antelope are not identical things. Woe is us. Sorry. The truth is the truth. You can't address the specifics without making that abudantly clear. If anyone doubts what I say, I can back it up. Vatican II re-endorsed all the Anathemas of trent. Very revealing reading for anyone that bothers to read what your clergy really believes and teaches.
