Let’s understand this. The poster repeatedly said Catholics were pagans, idolaters, etc. without reprobation.

How is that not antagonism that should have been expunged?

Then I pointed out the historical fact that Nestorianism was rooted in pagan Aristotelianism, which I cited a post from a Georgetown University professor as having stated.

Then by extension, the Evangelical defenders of Nestorius had embraced that same pagan philosophical tradition that undergirded Nestorius’s thinking.

The Evangelicals are fond of attacking Catholics for “philosophizing” and have done so in this thread without any consequences.

How is stating historical fact about Nestorius antagonism?

The first use of the word “pagan” on this thread was by you, the original poster, at post 113. As the OP, you set the tone for your own threads.
