You seem upset, there is no reason to be so angry.
By the way I never heard of Hagee until this little thing was brought up by the press, so I’m not up on him and I really don’t care to learn about him.
“Catholic doctrine allows for the recognition of any valid baptism”
Here is a little more on their Mormon answer.
>”Summing up, we can say: The Baptism of the Catholic Church and that of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints differ essentially, both for what concerns faith in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, in whose name Baptism is conferred, and for what concerns the relationship to Christ who instituted it. As a result of all this, it is understood that the Catholic Church has to consider invalid, that is to say, cannot consider true Baptism, the rite given that name by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints.”<

You might want to pray for discernment on that score, too. I don't give anyone power over me to change my happy mood.
Your post 97 sounded angry to me, especially since the anger and insulting tone was directed at me
"I sometimes like bluntness when it comes to God stuff."
Maybe I should cut you some slack for not knowing what you like -- in case it's "that time if the month". :)
That’s the point. They have a different understanding of the Blessed Trinity than orthodox Christianity. Therefore, their baptisms are invalid...
I really have no idea what is going on with you, or what has made you so angry.
“Thats the point. They have a different understanding of the Blessed Trinity than orthodox Christianity. Therefore, their baptisms are invalid...”
I really liked what was said in the last two paragraphs of the page at the Assembly of God link in post 87.
I thought the last paragraph especially was descriptive of the threat by cults, to all of us.

>>I do not have any more disdain for Catholics than I do for Mormons. I do however, hold much disdain for the arrogant.<<
There is nothing nor any one more arrogant than a human being telling an organization how to conduct their business. Libs do that.
Since your arrogance precededs you, perhaps you don’t like yourself very much. That’s okay. I’ll say a prayer for you and others like you.
The NY Slimes tries to damn by association. No surprise there. Also no surprise is, it tries to damn both the Rev Hagee and Senator McCain.
Why do you tell such vicious, hateful lies about Roman Catholics?
Did a Catholic steal your prom date?
Poison with a smily-face: how duplicitous.
How shrewd of you to trust the word of the LA Times!
Comes across as a very decent man in the interview. Not a hater, not an anti-Semite, not banking on the rapture.
Sorry lefties, you got no goods on this guy. The equivalence argument will get you precisely nowhere.
Not in this article, anyway.
Oh, you mean there’s NOT a full moon out there? Oops! :)

You may be close to the Unified Field Theory of Deborah Solomon’s unrelenting misery.
That’s the way I read it...
One: Who is Jesus?
Two: What must one do to be saved?
