When reading the ridiculous writings, like the one posted, I get a great sense of gratefulness to the Catholic Church for being the rock that it is. Our house has not fallen and it will never fall.

I see where your post is a typical Catholic post. Rather than seriously consider what the scriptures are saying, the scriptures are touted as "ridiculous" (yes, the scriptures are because this is basically what the author uses). Instead, it is what the Catholic Church states as being fact is considered fact, irrespective of scripture. This is similar to the Democrats all saying that 2 million jobs were created over the last two months and all the minions shake their heads yes that it must be so because Obama says so.

I actually see your post as typical of the anti-Catholics who troll these threads and highly atypical of the vast majority of actual Christian Protestants.

It seems contextually, that jacknhoo was stating that the interpretation imposed upon the cited Scripture was ridiculous, not the actual Scripture itself. The problem with the fringe Protestants is that they actually believe that when they impost their understanding and interpretation on Scripture that they have altered Scripture to fit their beliefs and created a new universal reality. The problem is that for the vast majority of Christians that new alter reality is a very recognizable sham.
