It is fine to change topic and chat around, but not as a debate tactic. Typically, a professional Protestant, unable to justify his positions from the scripture, will switch the conversatin to something else in order to appear holding his ground. These tricks should be detected and thwarted.

Annalex, unless you have mistaken my post for that of someone else, this is plain arrogance. My response to yours was nether pointless or impertinent. You disallowed the authority of the comments of the NAB and thus impugned the Nihil Obstat and Imprimatur, inferring the RC Bishops who granted the stamps were in league with the enemy, and invoked the CCC as authoritative, and thus i first addressed the issue of authority, whether the catechism could itself contain errors, and how sure was it, which is pertinent in defining 1Cor. 3 as supporting purgatory.
I next addressed the manner in which the CCC invoked 1Cor. 3, in direct response to your invocation of it. The rest of my post was also direct responses to yours, including your ad lib in damning Protestants.
And all you posted in response was to reduce Purgatory to “purification preceding the entry into Heaven,” for some, (“That is all the Purgatory is”), while as i have argued, that it is only one aspect needed to make 1Cor. 3 refer to being a purification commencing at death in order to enter heaven.
And as for who has evidenced they are “unable to justify his positions from the scripture” and using damage control tactics, i will gladly let the reader be the judge of that. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
