You misread and misappropriate Trent.

Assertion, not Argument.

You are claiming as much, not because I am Wrong -- but because I am Right.

And that bothers you.

I have provided the exact wording of Trent, Canon 24, "On Justification", above. Please demonstrate PRECISELY where and exactly how I have "misread and misappropriate Trent".... else be found Guilty of Bearing False Witness, and Violating the Ninth Commandment.

And this better be good. If your logic is not ruthlessly precise, I will see through it immediately.
(Check the National Collegiate Debate Ranks to find out the last time the American Catholic University beat Jerry Falwell's nation-dominating Liberty University... and then ask me my Alma Mater.)

I extend Charity to those who do not accuse me of Lying. You, however, have maliciously done so.
Prove your case, and don't Err.

Or retract your Slander, and walk away.

Did you somehow get psychic powers? I stated the Church does not teach what you claim it does. You are in error.

I couldn't care less. I went to USF, where Al'Arian taught. Doesn't make me a terrorist, anymore than going to the "Nation Dominating Liberty University" makes you right. Do they put that above the door?

Reminds me of Ignatius O'Reilly...

Are we having a rap duel?

First things first, the Church teaches this:
CCC 1992
Justification has been merited for us by the Passion of Christ who offered himself on the cross as a living victim, holy and pleasing to God, and whose blood has become the instrument of atonement for the sins of all men. Justification is conferred in Baptism, the sacrament of faith. It conforms us to the righteousness of God, who makes us inwardly just by the power of his mercy. Its purpose is the glory of God and of Christ, and the gift of eternal life:
But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from law, although the law and the prophets bear witness to it, the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, they are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as an expiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins; it was to prove at the present time that he himself is righteous and that he justifies him who has faith in Jesus.

This is what the Church teaches. It is sufficient to show that your assertation is wrong.

Back to the rap duel!
Throw you hands in th'air! Whooop whoop!
Like ya just dont care! Whoop whoop!
Cause what makes me sick!
Is that whacko Jack Chick!
wacka wacka wacka wacka wacka wacka screech screech!

I WIN!

And this better be good.

Dude, with all due respect ...

The chest thumping is really kind of silly. It makes you look childish. At best.

I enjoy reading these threads, but If I want to see chest thumping and feather fluffing I'll watch Animal Planet. The gorillas and birds are better at it than you.

Have a lovely day.
