Besides the obvious fact that what you wrote is literally tacked-on slander that ignored the very pertinent comparison I made, your choice of slanderous topics proves my point. It is of the mindset of a mommy to a recalcitrant young teenage girl. Highly insulting, of course, but also contemptuous of adulthood itself, as was the original post. All specific issues of spiritual and religious difference are ignored and dismissed into mommyland, where disagreement for any reason is designated mere immaturity, and spiteful insult is delivered in the name of mommylove - oh I'm sorry, I mean the love of the Church.
Bummer when your target is an un-confused adult, though.
PS - I hate to break this to you, but your demonstration of love and respect and honesty failed to bring me back to the Church. Maybe if you try more spit next time, that will work better. You know the old saying - spare the hateful contempt, spoil the guilty penitent.

Wait. You feel slandered? It isn’t slander, but if you feel slander then are you an anti-Catholic or a Middle School girl?
“Bummer when your target is an un-confused adult, though.”
Well, then there’s no bummer here at all. Again, are you a Middle School girl? An anti-Catholic?
“PS - I hate to break this to you, but your demonstration of love and respect and honesty failed to bring me back to the Church.”
I hate to break this to you, but your demonstration of love and respect and honesty failed to show itself as honest and your failure to return to the Church has nothing to do with me and everything to do with your own pride.
“Maybe if you try more spit next time, that will work better.”
Only if I’m throwing spitballs. What I pitch right at you, however, is the truth. No fast balls, no curves, just easy loping pitches. And you swing and miss every time. And now your charging the mound while crying your eyes out.
“You know the old saying - spare the hateful contempt, spoil the guilty penitent.”
Never heard of it, but it doesn’t matter.
