indeed the protestants twist:

Rom 9:10 And not only [this]; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, [even] by our father Isaac;

their root heresy is selfishness and self centeredness over the word of God.

That is a root vice, or what we sometime refer to as cardinal sin. A heresy, however is a technical term, and I use it as such.

i take offending those who spread false gospels as something to be proud of.

well either way it's the root of their heresy. their church is founded on the idea that the self trumps the church and Holy Scripture.

No doubt. The Magesterical has lots of those technical terms to pontificate and censure over.

Would that be with fries or just malice and aforethought?

That Jesus came to send a sword does not show that every sword was sent by Jesus. That a man in Agrippa's court called Paul "mad" does not mean that no one is a sociopath.

And Clintoon's misuse of "parsing" with the intention to mislead (has anybody here ever been asked by his Latin or Greek teacher to "parse a sentence"? Does anybody know what the word means?) does not mean that all parsing is mendacious.

Clearly there is a time for peace and a time for war. That neither justifies nor excuses every war-maker.

Not everyone who is filled with a passionate intensity is called by the Holy Spirit. Not all false prophets know they are false. Jesus prophesied family division, but not all those seek and work for division of families do God's will, or Elisabeth Taylor would be canonization material.

im not sure why your semenires have such sermons... could it be related to how prideful prots are in their self oraclization of scripture?

If your implication is that you might consider Catohlic doctrines heretical, yes I understand that, -- and of course in fact you did. The use of the term is problematic because it has not been historically used as such (it was always relative to the Catholic or Orthodox teaching), but it would not be offensive to me if you used the word. It means, simply, "at deviance with the established teaching". Insofar as you adhere to anything historically established, you could use the word, I suppose.

Scientists sometime call something heretical because it disagrees with the textbook.

[.. Not all false prophets know they are false. Jesus prophesied family division, but not all those seek and work for division of families do God's will, ..]

Jesus came to make ALL religions obsolete... and DID..
"You MUST be born again"- Jesus.. WHY?...

Bingo. Of course using the word doesn't advance the argument, but it can say where one means to go with the argument.

TO say," I think that's heretical," is one thing. To spend time looking for new and creative ways to give offense and then sharing the results of one's research, that's quite another.

Some try to help us be better people. Others try to reduce us to our passions -- on a mission from God, of course.
