OH??
Or much of the Bible; either.
Isn't the EVIDENCE; shown in just this ONE thread; enough to convince a lurking person that what I posted is TRUE?
Compare how much scripture versus ROME's writings you Catholics post.
Heck; we PROTS even post your churches writings!
But do we get THANKS! for that?
More than likely; your chosen religions writings and teachings that WE show will be IGNORED.
I find THAT to be INSULTING.
Sigh...
You don’t answer the question. It is one thing for a person to have a different opinion. It is something all together different to be rude and offensive.
As this has been a very long thread, allow me to remind you of the premise. The premise was an article which incorrectly attempted to “prove” Catholic doctrine and dogma related the Blessed Mother are unbiblical.
While that certainly is a valid topic of discussion, which honest people can hold different opinions, what I have observed is the venom, hostility, and insults from certain people. What makes them worse is cloaking this behavior in the excuse of “protecting” the Bible, or asserting some moral high ground.
Perhaps instead of assuming one’s opinions of another’s religion are facts, one should endeavor to actually learn from the primary source. Unfortunately, many non-Catholic commentators only study the often-flawed opinion of others, and never actually read what the Church teaches.
Let us use our intellects honestly. Let us endeavor to understand with honesty. Let us remain steadfast in the truth, and encourage one another. Should one disagree with another, do so with patience and kindness.
Somewhere in this country we have lost the ability to disagree without being disagreeable.
