"Nice attempt to both mischaracterize and then set up a straw man."

Accurately reporting verifiable history is not distortion, however the falsification of the content of the Catechism of the Catholic Church is.

Demonstrably, you have confirmed what I said in post #182. Thanks.

“Demonstrably, you have confirmed what I said in post #182.”

Fortunately, I was not drinking anything when I read this, otherwise I would have covered my keyboard with it.

“We all know the principle of invincible ignorance. However, some are mired in insufferable ignorance. I’ve learned to recognize the type. Rather than ask what Catholics actually believe they begin with a false premise and then attack it and the refutation from a knee-jerk recital of preprogrammed anti-Catholic propaganda they have been taught since the cradle.”

I see. What is the title of this thread? Let me help you: “Where Is That Taught in the Bible?” Who started this thread and asked this question? Go back and look. I did. Who is spewing “knee-jerk” and “preprogrammed ... propaganda”? And, ah, when were you taught such? Or when was NYer?

I think I am staying pretty much on topic in a thread I did not start. This thread is obviously an effort to provoke. I will admit to being provoked.

Finally, ad hominem argumentation is so unhelpful and unneighborly. One might even say it is the stalking ground of an unstable personality bolstered by invincible ignorance.

Peace in Christ, the Savior of sinners.
