>> Thank you proving my point.
You’re welcome.
>> You marginalize my opinion by calling it a rant. You don’t deign to argue since my response doesn’t rise to the level of your towering intellect. Your understanding of Catholicism is miniscule, yet you present yourself as an expert and, as an extra bonus, you insult me for my beliefs.
I have never referred to myself as an expert on anything, and never touted my own intellect in the least. I am just your average Baptist (non-Catholic) observer. I haven’t insulted you ... and honestly haven’t even addressed you very much at all. I disagree with some of your beliefs wholeheartedly, and won’t pretend otherwise. If you regard that disagreement as an insult ... so be it.
>> Welcome to Free Republic President Obama. BTW-your tying deviancy, whether it was homosexuality or pedophilia, is still flawed and ignorant (but I’m sure you’ll still be able to come up with a pithy and insulting response anyway).
You seem to be hankerin’ for a fight — not sure why, and I’m not really interested in any case. You disagree with me. You find me “flawed and ignorant”. Fine by me. It wouldn’t be the first time I’ve been disagreed with.
Pithy enough?

Frankly, I’m not surprised to see that you are a Baptist. I’ve had a Baptist pastor tell my child she wasn’t a Christian because she was a Catholic. Beleive me, the exact opposite is being preached from the pulpits of my church. True evil divides true Christians. Always has, always will. I don’t know if you’ve read it here or not, but there is a war on our culture and our faith going on right now. Allowing ignorance (and it is ignorance) like this to divide us leaves a big hole for our common enemy to fill. Well at least this let’s me know where you are coming from.
