I’ll tell you what. I will retract that Cajetan was made a Cardinal at 21 (which means he would have had to enter a monastery when he was 2) and my speculations about Cajetan (which I stated as “probably”) if you’ll retract the slurs you posted about me in the following posts.
”You do no research to evaluate my claims. You simply speculate solely out of your own brain and place the blame entirely on Cajetan, whom you portray as a venal and evil man.” – Post 14”…you in effect reply that I have nothing but prejudice against Protestants and thus what I write need not be taken seriously.” – Post 14
You have now not only vilified Cajetan but you have calumniated me.” - Post 14
You have no idea about my reasoning, research or readings any more than I have of Cajetan’s reasoning. You’re speculating about me just as much as I'm speculating about Cajetan. To suggest I'm trying to "vilified" Cajetan is spurious. The only difference is that Cajetan is dead and I'm, well, alive. I can speculate about Cajetan motives which is what history is about. (BTW-I'd like to know of one Cardinal who never entertained the idea of being Pope.)
Your retraction will be welcome at your convenience. Then mine will be forthcoming or you can simply refer to the first paragraph.
