Please don’t pretend that you don’t know what I’m talking about. That’s just silly.

Boast in Rome is what you said. You've not explained it.

You don't "come home to Rome", you swim the Tiber from Rome to the Church.

You, Titanites, accuse me of reading your mind. No, I'm reading the words you've published. Consider this discussion, which you started on Free Republic, that included the following paragraph:

"... I myself have been moving in the direction of Rome for the last several years. I am very pleased to be able to announce that I intend to be received into the Church on May 26th, at St. Louis King of France parish in Austin. My own story is quite different from Frank’s, although our reasons for entering the Church of Rome are strikingly parallel."

You published that. You did. It's the testimony of someone who is excited about "Rome," about "the Church of Rome," about "Roman Catholic doctrine." He references Rome 10 times in his testimony, and Jesus he mentions only 2 times.

While I want to find unity with my brothers and sisters in Christ, I do need to oppose such promotion of a denomination over the promotion of Jesus.

Again, I affirm the premise of this particular discussion: Those who follow Christ should find our unity in Him.

(I should be surprised by the negative responses to my comments, but I'm not. Some people find their identity more in their denomination than in Jesus, and when someone comes along to promote Jesus over denomination, they become unsettled ...)
