(He knew nothing about what Catholics really believed or why. I was stunned. Now I realize that that attitude is just part of the mental illness that is anti-Catholicism.)
The method you use above is not only a tried and true liberal democrat communist slander evil, it is also a lie.Did you ever consider that it may be you who does not understand the Words of Scripture, though you may be well versed in Roman Catholic doctrines mixed with a little Scripture teaching. The devil Lucifer uses the same tactics as the first words out of his evil mouth were “Hath God said”...
Get a hold of yourself man. Your mouth sounds like a heathen.
I am always surprised at how ignorant so many “Bible only” Christians are of the Church fathers. Do you honestly think they were ignorant of Scripture? Do you think that infused rightousness is contrary to Scripture? I ask this because any one who studies Catholic teaching will find that it is indeed deep in Scriptural knowledge.

It is not a lie. It actually happened. I talked to him personally and arranged for Catholic Answers to send him materials. I even asked Slick if that was okay with him and he said yes.
“Did you ever consider that it may be you who does not understand the Words of Scripture, though you may be well versed in Roman Catholic doctrines mixed with a little Scripture teaching.”
No, I did not consider that because I already knew that to not be the case after years of study and prayer. Also, you are missing the obvious point. No matter how well versed in scripture Slick was or believed he was, he was attacking Catholic beliefs and yet did not know much about them, could not discuss them intelligently and clearly misunderstood them. I am not saying he didn’t agree with them - that’s obviously a given. What was strange to me was not that he didn’t agree with Catholic teachings - he was a Protestant so I didn’t expect him to agree. No, what was strange was that he was attacking the Catholic faith when he did not even know what it taught, what it believed or why.

I’m sure there is a Godwin’s Rule violation there, but quite frankly your protestantions just seem to add proof to the fact that I am telling the truth. I distinctly remember making the call to him and then Catholic Answers. I found Slick to be quite cordial. I also found him to be profoundly wrong. He has gained in knowledge since then, but is no more correct than he used to be.
