Can I take that to mean you will stop on other Catholic threads also [?]

That rather depends on the content. I am loathe to say I will avoid all threads dealing with your confession, as often those threads contain content deeply objectionable to the Orthodox, which I regard as requiring a response on our part.

If you hadn't been so bull-headed about having to answer me, my "invasion" of this thread would have been limited to reminding you all about the councils which defended clerical marriage and of the existence the Uniates who, though in your communion, have married clergy. Do not expect me, though, to use language, even when posting on threads concerning events in your confession, which would in any way give rhetorical support to your confession's claims or doctrines contrary to the Holy Orthodox Faith.

I figured. A simple "no" would have sufficed but you turn a straight forward question into just another opportunity to be both pedantically contentious and issue more of your false charges. That is so typical....

Frankly, Sir, you are beneath contempt and your "faith" is niggardly, pedantic, nationalistic, crabbed, false and envious of the true authority of the Pope.

I knew that neither you nor Mar could make a promise not to intrude upon another's area of Faith; that you are uncontroably driven to confront Divinely-constituted authority and that you were incapable fo promising not to attack another's faith.

It is highly revealing, at least to me, that Catholics can so easily promise NOT to go on orthodox threads and start fights - and stick with that promise - while some orthodox, like you and Mar, are incapable of extending the courtesy.

Nope, for true "Totalitarian ideologues," not Christians, promises of leaving others alone is impossible. They (folks like you and Mar, not Don-O) are unhappy leaving others to follow the Faith as they see fit and to explain it as they see fit. Your deadly drive to control others is so sick and twisted that you actually think YOU can define Doctrine for other Communions. You, sir are mad..And I leave the mad alone....May God have mercy on your soul
