"John 8:15 I have no idea what that means.

John 8:15

You judge by human standards; I pass judgment on no one.

"I do not understand this sick need of anti-literalists to claim entire religions when those religions are divided."

Your lack of understanding is not limited to the above. You lack an understanding of the hierarchy of the Church. In spite of any private or public dissension or dialog the Church's position is that of the Holy See and the Papal edicts are not entirely literalist. Those that are in agreement are in communion with the body of the Church, those that are not in agreement are not wholly Catholic. If you, as a non-Catholic find comfort an solace in literalism, I will not judge you. It is, however, disingenuous for one to claim to be Catholic and be in open dissension with the Church on issues whether it is literalism or voting for an abortionist.

So you're saying that those Catholics who are literalists are CINO's in the same sense as those who support abortion?

Wideawake? Papertyger?
