I simply observed that "rigid" is the first thing that liberals say about anything they don't like. Like "racist", it is often used to stifle discussion. Also like "racist", however, it doesn't work as well as it used to, because it's been overused.
I might pick a different word, just to avoid the connotations that that word has picked up.
However, you do have your facts wrong, as others have pointed out to you.
thanks for your “sensitive” comments about “you have your facts wrong, as others have pointed out.”
I have acknowledged where I do not know the technical aspects of the Church rules and regs these days...for example to Vladimir, who patiently responded to my posts with information.
As a lifelong Catholic, remind me to think twice about coming to this forum if I have questions or issues with what I see the church is doing....
God forbid that someone might want to help me understand where I might be incorrect on the facts, let alone offer some empathy as I deal with my religion.
You can keep Your brand of Christianity.
