From your post #66:
“Appealing to what the Lord said is rather shallow when you dont even follow what He said about how to do it.”
Was I not supposed to assume this was aimed at either me or the Catholic Church or both?
Did you read the verses? Do you do it in secret? You appealed to what the Lord said to fast but you don’t appeal to the Lord on how to do it. Catholics don’t do it in secret so the world doesn’t see. They make a spectacle of it. They don’t wash their face. They smudge ashes on it so people can see.
