Thanks for your kind comments and I will keep your insights in mind.
In going back and forth with an RC poster (a serious RC) yesterday I asked if questioning the RC Church was the same as attacking an RC's Faith. The poster replied to the effect that "since the RC Church was created by JESUS and is his church to attack the church would be attacking his works." In these threads I had suspected this to be the case, but had never had it confirmed. The point I'm getting to is that it had not occurred to me until recently that for RC's criticizing their church is the same as criticizing their faith. As a Baptist we look at these things differently.
