You are the one who said you HATE papists and smokers. Leaves us very little common ground, pal. Eat your yopios.

To be more accurate, I wrote, “I hate pompous Papists about as much as I hate careless smokers.” If you’re a conscientious smoker, I’m fine with that. And if you are a mere Roman Catholic, I’m fine with that. Lots of Roman Catholics are Christ-followers, and brothers and sisters of mine.

But it’s the *pompous* ones, who exalt Rome over Christ and who say that those who aren’t part of their denomination are not saved, that I cannot tolerate. If you have exalted the Roman Catholic Church over mere faith in Christ, then yes, that leaves us very little common ground. If, however, Christ is your Savior, as He is mine, then we have sufficient common ground.

Of course, I wouldn’t want to hang out with you. You’re too crass and bitter and cynical.

I see your tagline says, “Hail Mary Full of Grace, The Lord Is With Thee...”

Maybe you can ask her to share some of her grace with you, as I sense none in your communication.
