Okay day 4 arguing with a dishonest man/woman/whatever. Why do I say dishonest? For evidence I offer the following evidence. See your post #136.

Please show me the verses that show that a Christian Priest must be celebate(sp).

//sigh//

No one has said Scripture requires them be celibate but it is recommended and it is a matter of Church obedience. They signed on for it now many want to follow their own WILL not their oath to GOD. You do not see the distinction or is willfulness at issue here as well?

From the Gospel of Matthew 19:12

For there are eunuchs, who were born so from their mother's womb: and there are eunuchs, who were made so by men: and there are eunuchs, who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven. He that can take, let him take it.

Care to venture a guess who said it? Go on take a guess.

You sir are not interested in honest debate you are only interested in making accusations and false ones at that. For several days you have been given the chance to respond to my Catholic version of this passage with your Protestant explanation. You have yet to do se. For evidence I suggest our readers check out your posts to me #176, 177, 197, 207, 209, 217. Not one of these posts offers a protestant view to this passage but often exhibits an intent to change the subject as you have been able to do with all your other posts since the two reproduced above such as post #181, 188, 192, 195, 198, 199, 200, 202, 204, 206, 221, 223, and 226.

I am not like many others on this Thread, I have little problem dealing with a trouble maker who feel entitled it interfere in another Religion’s internal structure. However that requires a measure of mutually agreed rules. Such as if you ask for a Scriptural justification for something and it is provided you will give a coherent explanation why this is correct or why you differ and find fault with the passage. I see no point in changing the subject as you so cravenly desire because you will just do the same with the new topic and on and on it goes.

I think you should know this was expected by me in a private freepmail. On the 27th I said in reference to this passage “Did you notice he never addressed my passage in his reply to me? There is a reason for that.” You see, your cowardly approach was expected and has been the expected goal from my first post to you.

So you can go back to your shredding machine and your cut and paste Bible. You might as well after all you deny Christ so why shouldn’t you deny His words.
