Nothing in your Post #233 is germane to the Posted Article, or for that matter provides any evidence whatsoever for your contention that Dr. Robert Sungenis is "shunned by respectable Christians due to his venomous antisemitism".

If you want to post something evidentiary from an authoritative Christian scholar (Roman Catholic or otherwise) -- either responding to my own posted evidence from Dr. Sungenis (that would be favorite), or at least buttressing your own ad hominem Argument by showing that authoritative Christian scholars direct "respectable Christians" to "shun" Dr. Sungenis as a "venomous Anti-Semite", then I'll read your evidence and respond thereto. Otherwise, I must remind you that I am citing Dr. Sungenis in his capacity as a Patristic scholar, in which area he is recognized as a competent authority (one among many, but no slouch):

The Most Reverend Fabian W. Bruskewitz, Bishop of Lincoln, Nebraska

As far as Sungenis' geo-centrism, that I will grant you for the sake of argument (with the reservation that Sungenis' position on the subject is actually a bit more subtle and Einsteinian-Relativistic than you portray -- "Einstein told us there is no center, that any point in the universe can serve as the center" -- Sungenis, Newhouse News Service, 3/28/06... as I understand it, Sungenis chooses Earth as the center of relativistic observation, and develops his argument from there).

However, while I disagree with Sungenis' geo-centrism, I am only maginally more interested in his opinions on Astro-Physics than I am in his opinions on hair-care products.

I am citing Sungenis in his capacity as a Patristic scholar, an area in which he is recognized as a competent authority. You must either respond to his arguments in that area, or I must respectfully dismiss your Postings as irrelevant to the Article under discussion -- "And you should travel to all those Catholic churches in Europe and destroy those statues that depict exactly that which you say Rome has never taught." (GWB's excellent #238)

Best, OP

For starters, you have exhibited no understanding of what it is that constitutes "authoritative."

I provided you the links that expose his virulent antisemitism. That you don't immediately distance yourself from him speaks volumes to me.

I don't go about smashing statues or icons. That is a prot-thing

I much prefer the far easier act of destroyimg your haughty errors

"Robert Sungenis has systematically addressed the confusion and demonstrated what we have always known, namely the Sacred Scripture and the Catholic Deposit of Faith are in complete agreement about justification. I applaud this work, and recommend it for all..." etc., ~~ The Most Reverend Fabian W. Bruskewitz, Bishop of Lincoln, Nebraska

A most interesting bishop who stood for orthodoxy strongly in the Roman churches when he was a lone voice among the liberal Lavender establishment of American bishops. I've been hoping to meet him personally some time.

Since he is my own bishop by the standards and dictates of Rome, I am rather proud of him. Of course, I remain a "separated brother" as I am a conservative Calvinist Baptist Christian.

It is rather amusing to refer to Bishop Fabian as "our bishop" to some of my local Roman Catholic friends. They're not quite accustomed to the idea of sharing, to any extent, their bishop with some cranky Baptist like me. ; )
