Otto,

As long as you show respect for my faith, I am happy to discuss it. If you refer to the Church in disparaging terms like "sect" then I will not. However, we will probably have to continue this next week as I am going out of town for Christmas and will likely not be online.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.

I do not think that stating an opinion is disparaging, but if you wish, I will stop referring to it as a heretical sect. That is what I believe and I assume you think my Reformed Baptist faith is also a heretical sect, and I do not take offense if you call it such, as long it is what you believe. I find nothing wrong with not candy-coating opinion as long as it can be discussed fairly and without personal attack and strawman arguments. I would not have you lie to me, and would rather you tell me exactly what you honestly think, and I expect you to challenge my thoughts. Am I wrong to assume you would want the same from me?

May God keep you safe on you travels!

Otto
