Evidently, it is easier to notice the splinter in the other person's eye than the log in your own (I've heard these words somewhere). One might ask the question, "Why did a Catholic start this thread in the first place?" Hmmm.

Hmmm. I don’t know, but then, I’m not a mindreader.

Well, there are a great many Reformed churches where one will probably NEVER hear that verse read.

But, I suppose you are offering this as you excuse as to why, at post #2, you tried to deflect the the thread away from the Reformed minister and make it about Catholicism.

Probably because it is a major news event. That being said, I knew Pissant on here for several years before I had any idea that he is a Catholic, I'm not aware that he participates in any of the religious threads on here, but if he does, it's not often.
