You are antagonizing me (and many other FReepers).
You consistently post these threads which are antagonistic by design and content! You expect others to passively ignore the error in their content and at odds with the clear Word of God. They are an affront to us Christians that actually know and read the Scriptures, when your post tries to explain these things from a Roman Catholic viewpoint, by ignoring the clear wording which it gives us.
Please be considerate and try to be less antagonistic!
“affront to us Christians who actually know and read the scriptures...”
Implying that Catholics don’t know and read the scriptures? That is rather patronizing ...
Did you even read the article? It is completely based on scripture references and the reasoning of scripture scholars at Catholic Answers, who have degrees in the subject. The wording scripture gives us clearly supports the Roman Catholic position and that is what is antagonizing you.
We have free will so feel free to disagree; however- don’t continue to falsely claim that the Catholic position is not scriptural. The interpretations of the scriptures are different; one is correct and one is in error, but the argument that the catholic position is not based on scripture needs to stop because it simply isn’t true.
