"You, like so many of the rabid anti-Catholic bigots on the forum."

I prefer to think of myself as pro-Christian. Look this is an age old disagreement. It's the same reason you label the founders of Israel, and Israel itself, as terrorist. It has nothing to do with fact, and everything to do with religion. I back Israel because I believe the Jews are God's chosen people. You oppose Israel because you believe that the Jews are God's forsaken people. And then there are those in the middle such as former Congressman Robert Dornan. He is a devout Catholic, and yet he is a strong supporter of Israel, not based on theological arguments, but because he knows Israel is the only pro-American democracy in the Middle East. I agree with Dornan's position as well.

Then you can't be anti-Catholic as the Catholic Church IS the Church of God. period.

I'll thank you not to go ascribing for me what I do and don't believe per your singularly subjective interpretation of direct quotes, historical events and objective reality.

Your thinking is hopelessly confused as is the thinking of anyone who, seeking to serve two masters, drinks deep from Cognitive Dissonance.

I'm perfectly aware of the fact that ClownPosse sorts find me to be an "anti-semite". It does not surprise me that you too -- while engaging in the signature bigotry of those most inclined to cry foul at "hate crimes" -- have joined them in their estimation.

I really couldn't care less.

Your belief that God is a racist and -- drawing on the inexorable pagan fatalism that Calvin used to prime Protestant minds to essentially anti-Christian thought -- all men are NOT created equal but instead Determined to be either Elect or Reprobate is not only reprehensible from a spiritual standpoint but flies in the face of those "self-evident" truths on which this nation allegedly was founded ... back when it was a "Christian" nation and public expressions of Christian faith were not pounced on as Offensive or Hateful as a matter of course.

Seriously ... if you must persist in your ugly, deceiptful and deluded rantings about me, please have the courtesy to leave me off the pinglist and provide same to those hateful, smallminded sorts who relish a good bolshevik-style character assassination.

Life is too short for crap like this and I have no wish to further waste any time with you if it's just going to be more of the same bile as posted herein.

The day you exercise anything like discerning or CONSISTENCY, you let me know. So long as you continue to be a moral relativist and racist whose God is a pragmatic fiend not above purposing evil as part of his plans for mankind (among the Elect he created, anyway), I don't want to read any of it. I find it distasteful in the extreme.

Fair enough?

This marks the last time I respond to one of your bunkum posts and you have my word I will not initiate further exchanges with you.

Regards, Tap.
