Of course you do. If you didn't, you would call us what we are: Roman Catholics.

By using a fake, concocted terminology ("Roman believer", "Romanist") you deliberately insult us personally.

No. Not so. Not true.

I merely refuse to let you exclusively, monopolistically OWN the generic term "catholilc."

I strongly believe that all who have accepted Christ as their Personal Savior and who seek to walk in His Spirit as well as they can manage with His help

. . . all such belong to The Universal Catholic Church made up of all believers of all denominations and probably plenty who've never darkened a denominational door.

It's a matter of doctrine, to me, not personal insult.

If I were to be insulting deliberately, you would definitely know it.

"Romanist" is merely a term that works for me and others given my doctrinal perspective--which I must be true to or take another, different one! LOL.

BTW, I consider it a lie to label my terms "fake" etc. They were carefully arrived at in an effort to find a term true to my doctrine which communicated and was not inherently insulting.

I suppose we could talk about Mary's fake after-Christ virginity but that would probably best be on another forum.
