We are called to witness our Christian faith to apostates and unbelievers.

Agreed. And very applicable, since I do not believe in, and am apostate from, the church run by Pope Newgeezer AND the church run by Pope Biblewonk. Thus, they might reasonably feel compelled to witness to me.

But I will never follow their own personal interpretation of scripture, and they both understand that. Given that understanding, the appropriate reaction for them is to bug off.

Yet, like mosquitoes at the picnic, they keep buzzing around, looking for carrion.

Do you see Catholics jumping onto your protestant threads and hijacking the conversation? Go pretend that Pastor Billy Bob from whatever fruitcake nondenominational church you belong to has all the answers. Feel free to believe that the bible was dropped from heaven into the hands of Martin Luther. Go tell all your friends at your bible study that the "papists" are going to hell. Go do all of this.




Excellent point(s). I can't recall a Prot thread wherein we have jumped in on them, although I'm all but certain someone will find one.

Agreed. That's why I've taken to insulting them with the hope that they'll finally take the hint. You know the saying, mock the devil and he'll flee from you...

I just think you're a fool.

Thanks again for your thoughtful input. But, with all due respect, I couldn't care less what your kind thinks about me.

Well, if they keep doing this to ours, I say it's open season. Heck, we should bring in the Eastern Orthodox folks too.

Cripes. Another soul saver? Good grief. Why not leave us Catholics to our own damnation? We can't be right... I mean who founded our Church? Oh yeah, Him.

When it comes to Patristics and the history of the early Church, they're second to none! The poor prots will run screaming.
