”"I only accept it and believe it if it's in the Bible!" With great regret and contrition, I also have to admit that I too was once very anti-Catholic, like many of you are right now, (and, coincidentally, like the unceasingly prevaricating President B.O. is, the lying foulmouth pervert Bill Maher is, the New York Times is, Muslims are, Communists are, atheists are, the main-stream-media in general is, anti-Catholic phony Catholics like Pelosi/Sebelius/Biden/Kerry/Kennedys/etc. are, democrats (in general) are, and many others ALSO are right now, unfortunately).”

Poor form.

By your presented "logic" in your opening statement, because I’m not a Catholic, I’m an anti-Catholic and a (insert one of the many referenced despicable characteristics here) type of anti-Catholic to boot.

Stopping now, because, although I have some arguments about the Catholic Church based on my experiences, I don't voice them because I do consider Catholics my brothers in Christ.

Your opening comment causes me to wonder what you and your fellow Catholics think of us Bible only Christians though...

Please allow me to respond to this, as I have seen many here who are offended by that statement, yet no where does HR say that all Bible only Christians are anti Catholic.

There are many here who are, and many who are not.

****Stopping now, because, although I have some arguments about the Catholic Church based on my experiences, I don’t voice them because I do consider Catholics my brothers in Christ.****

That is unfortunate because we are happy to have discussions with those who have arguments and questions about the faith with those who accept us as brothers and sisters in Christ.

There are some here who cannot do that with any respect or dignity regarding Catholics. We are called every manner of unChristian names, names which I will not go into here, but which are disparaging and meant to ridicule, demean and humiliate.

I guarantee that if you respond or ask in a respectful manner, no Catholic here will attack you. The measure by which you give, will be the measure of which you are given.
