Otherwise it's just a lot of noise....

For example, see the citation above about "magical powers". Where is the proof from the person making the claim that Catholicism teaches that a priest has "magical powers"? Where is the proof that the Church teaches that a priest's ability to confect the Eucharist comes from anywhere except from Christ through the Holy Spirit? (If that's "magical," then Peter and John had "magical powers" to raise cripples.)
You guys make outlandish claims, demand absolutely no proof from the parties making the claims, and then insist that we are somehow lacking for not jumping through arbitrarily-high hoops to "disprove" claims that were never proven in the first place.
Well... are you saying that you’d actually CONSIDER a reply thoughtfully, rather than just dismiss it with loads of spit, vinegar, and theatrics?
There’s a world of difference between “proving something” and “proving something to YOU [you = anyone who’s receiving the comment]”. The former is ruled by the laws of logic; the latter has the distinct possibility of being unable to get past personal bias of the listener... which is REALLY tiresome, especially after hundreds of attempts on dozens of threads (all with the same predictable results).
