You take yourself way toooo seriously. Nobody sits around thinking of ways to reject the catholic church.

Oh really? Watch the Protestant threads on FR. Catholics don't bother anybody on them. But watch the Catholic "open" threads -- they are attacked almost immediately by Protestants. Speaks volumes.

I would bet very big dollars that Catholic threads get at least 75% more negative remarks from Protestants than Protestant threads get negative remarks from Catholics. Wanna bet?

Um, watch the Calvinist threads and watch the Catholics pounce on those. It’s a road that goes both ways and some of your posters get very nasty and personal with us.

No, I don’t wanna bet. I don’t gamble as I believe its not something God wants us to do.

The road goes both ways. Saying ‘he did it first’ isn’t really a good argument.

I’ve never seen a Protestant thread, other than one a few days ago on Calvin.

And some of the Catholic threads exist to attack Protestants. Salvation has posted 2 in the last few days - one that started with silliness that equated the LDS & 7th Day Adventists with Baptist and Lutherans. There is one today with 150 reasons to be a Catholic...basically, all 150 are, “Catholics are right, so everyone else is stupid”.

I thank you for starting this thread, but there has been plenty of mud slung in both directions. That has been true through history. Anabaptists tended to be caught in the middle, but on at least one occasion they gained political power and behaved badly as well.

And I’ve been a Baptist long enough to know I wouldn’t want to live in a country run by Baptists...

Those aren't Catholic threads...When you include perversions of my God's words in a thread posted by a Catholic, it's my thread as well...And I will defend God's word from your religion or anyone's for that matter
