That’s the point of irony, NL. Let’s take Mary’s Assumption for one example. It is not a lie to claim that Catholics believe that Mary was assumed to heaven. So, as a non-believer in that claim, why can’t I ask that to be substantiated? It is not biblical. OTOH, when someone else claims that Mary worship is pagan in origin, as a non-believer you should be able to ask that it be substantiated. But do NOT demand that one produce evidence while another is just accepted without question. Which is what you attempted to do. THAT is the irony. I’m not outraged that you cannot/will not prove your conviction. I’m just not buying it. I consider it a lie. Just like you consider paganism regarding Mary a lie. It’s like you want to believe what you believe and state it without anyone disagreeing. That works in a caucus thread but not on open threads. Believe what you want, but just because your religion teaches/believes it doesn’t make it true for everyone.
Slight correction there, smvoice...
