“It is not for me to either affirm or deny. That is what tpanther and I have been trying to explain to you.”
Sorry—cop out. Weak faith drives a person to do strange things, including denying the obvious Christianity of Catholics. It would be absurd for me to argue that tpanther is not Christian because he is not Catholic, yet that is the analog of your (and his) argument.
“Essential to mockery is that it be markedly evident. “
It was, and it was a scream. Keep trying.
“Another assertion – of even less credibility than the former.”
I find it odd that one as opinionated as you can take offense at another’s assertions. Unless, of course they are contrary to yours. Therefore, it’s the position with which you take issue, not the fact that it’s wrapped in an assertion.
Just say so!
It is Christ who is the judge as to who is, or is not, a Christian. Do you deny that?
It would be absurd for me to argue that tpanther is not Christian because he is not Catholic, yet that is the analog of your (and his) argument.
Just nevermind he’s done exactly that, with his “cult” spew to me and metmom about every 4th or so post.
