If you had said ‘non-Catholics cannot say that truthfully’ it would not have been making it personal. ‘None of you’ like ‘each of you’ and ‘all of you’ makes it personal, individually, each and every one.
In the same post above, where WVKayaker complained about mind reading, he/she included the following:
"...and shows every trait of a FRoman cultic Troll!", referring to the remark in question, as well as to the person who made it.
"veggie" at the end of a quote as opposed to the proper handle of verga, in an otherwise well-edited post.
If the alleged "mind reading" issue, over the use of an indefinite pronoun, "none" is considered to be making it personal, what would the above direct statements be considered?
Perhaps it escaped your notice. Perhaps it's worth a second look at the situation.
Thank you.
Your out of context “quote” not withstanding, the guidelines for the RF have been applied evenly and correctly.
Continue on discussing/debating the topic of the thread.
LOL, well, as we used to say, during my 20 year USAF career: No sweat GI. Actually, in my early 20s, I had what I would consider, experiences similar to yours. I didn't consider eastern religions. It just seems like I was immersed in nothingness. It is difficult to explain, but I think you have an idea of what I mean. After two years of wandering in the spiritual desert, I had nothing inside except anger, frustration, bitterness and guilt. Someone said, it looks like nothing you have tried, has brought you any peace. He said, just try reading scripture, and see what happens. I am glad I did.
It's that projection thing again......
Nobody is gloating over their own salvation.
Nice little dig there using the word *perceived* in regard to their salvation.
And Catholicism states officially that those who are not Catholic are going to hell.
So what's your ground for complaint about the opinions of others?
Who's INSISTING that you're going to hell and why do you think they're saying that?
Isn’t the Catholic church the church that never changes, having taught the same doctrine for all of its 2,000 years since its inception?
So, when the Catholic church makes up its mind about whether non-Catholics are saved or not or going to hell or not, could you get back to us?
Two sets of rules G2G.
You have enough time to SCOLD me; yet do NOT have enough to actually POST what you want ME to read.
Why not post it for the WORLD to see?
Got time to cut and paste...
You manage to find time to C&P from something Newman said/wrote...
True; but INTERPRETING them sure can be!
Luther was a flamin' HERETIC!
Our current pope is WORTHLESS!
Well since every prot is their own pope.....

Theres practically no time involved.

That took less than 10 seconds. You take more time searching for and posting Seinfeld character shots. Remember, I posted the link to you days ago. You could have read the whole article many times over by now. Some people manage their time well. Others apparently post Seinfeld pics when they have run out of excuses.

Where did I ever say I didnt have enough time? Why do anti-Catholics always resort to making up things that are clearly not true? An anti-Catholic might also pretend that what was posted in post # 237 was never posted.

The link is right there in the thread multiple times. Anyone interested can look at it. Those who apparently know they will not be able to deal with the information in the article will make excuses to not look at it even for days at a time.
My faith was stronger when I came back, and it was my decision. You are correct, though, I've lapsed in my Scripture the last couple of weeks. I have to keep that in mind: it's usually the first thing I read in the morning, in Salvation's post with the commentary. The last couple of weeks have, well, no excuse- back on track!
Thanks for your concern. And thank you for your time in the Military. 20 years- God bless you!
Not a dig. God is the judge, not we.
