odd, my original comments were not combative, only differing, yet they were deleted by the mod who considered them unsuitable for a caucus thread
That said, I will now abandon this thread and leave you folks to discuss your topic
Here's what I think - if you'll pardon the over-statement:
(See? Note the corny humor and self-deprecation. These are the verbal equivalents of hunched shoulders and lowered head -- submission signals. I once got out of a traffic ticket by adopting a submission posture like that. Instead of the ticket I got a warm fatherly lecture. hee hee hee!)
There are all sorts of phrases and (in real time, face to face interactions) gestures one can use to reduce the tension some kinds of questions seem naturally to provoke. Religion touches us at the deepest places, which accounts for the bloody fights on the religion Forum. When somebody "goes after" our thought about Our Lady, he's talking about a woman I love and have deep affection for. It's close to asking me to consider a challenge to my wife's integrity.
Consequently a rich, frequent, redundant, over and over again, repeated use of such mollifying phrases is better than a simple question, simply put w/o introduction. A positive statement and demonstration that "we come in peace," can work, while assuming that people KNOW your intentions are non-combative doesn't work.
As you know, my reaction to your original post was that it was a challenge, rather than a question, and my response was to suggest recasting it.
And, as I recall, (possibly incorrectly) the question was about the Immaculate Conception. Since the article is about the "co-redemptrix" issue, the redirection of focus may also elicit a kind of "startle" or "flight-or-fight" response.
After all, the whole co-redemptrix thing is controversial enough whatever Our Lady's sinful/sinlessness might or might not be.
Does that make any sense at all? Short answer: your intentions may have been peaceful, I'm quite eager to concede that, but the post "sounded" aggressive, which is not necessarily your fault, as such, but over which you have some control
(If I acted as good as I talk, I'd be in heaven already.)
