"Seriously Protestants are just people to lazy to be Catholic."

"cheap-after-market-Christianity (i.e. Protestantism.)"

"Someone's imagination gone wild"



Very nice, guys. I'm sure any "lurkers" out there are feeling the love of Jesus in this thread.


"This is a Catholic section. I don't think you should comment on it."

It's a public board, guys. As far as the board rules go, no post is immune from comment as long as the comment doesn't involve "profanity, personal attacks, racism, or violence", correct? (and aimhigh, your "imagination gone wild is out-of-line, IMO). So, if you post something concerning RC doctrine, expect us pesky Prots to pipe up. Scripture DEMANDS that we test all doctrines against Scripture. Yes, I realize the RCC considers Tradition to be equal with Scripture- but certainly it can't CONTRADICT scripture- and that is one of the areas we can debate vigorously (but always civily). I'll tell you what, I can't speak for all Protestants on this board, but if you put "CATHOLICS ONLY" in the subject of a topic, I won't respond. That will signal to me (and others) that you are unwilling and/or unable to debate the merits of your post. Fair enough? Again, we have to keep in mind there are "lurkers" out there to be won to Christ. Mean-spirited posts will never do that. End of rant.

A blessed Christmas to all!

I'll concede that. My apologies.
Considering the number of negative Catholic responses I've seen to Protestant postings, it's interesting that Catholics think that their doctrines can't be debated.

Somehow you forgot to quote the person who denounced the IC as Satanic.

You can take a hike too.

Come debate anytime...you'll be blown right out of the water by my more eloquent and educated brothers...smear Christian Doctrine as Satanic and you'll get me.

There is no Salvation outside the Roman Catholic Church..put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Did I order him not to comment? No. I merely suggested he not comment. There is a difference.
