You understand nothing.

Yeah I did understand you just didn't like being called out on your logical fallacy and bigotry

Simple question coming.... WHO brought up the Catholic church in the first place?

Psalms point was valid and on topic. If you had left it at that you wouldn't be showing bigotry, the two topic had NOTHING to do with each other.

Hard question now: And why was it (Catholic church) brought up? This incident happened at a Christian school. So was was the point of infusing Catholics into this debate?

You do realize that Catholics are (The original) Christians. Psalms was commenting that He/ she felt the Catholic Church was doing a better job.

I'll tell you why. To stir the pot. To agitate. The make some lame point. That is despicable. And if you bring that sort of stuff in here, I will respond.With Bigotry. Fixed it for you. And so know you know what is in peoples hearts. I didn't realize you were omniscient.

Your "point" had nothing to do with the situation. See? I prove my point. You should tell Psalm that his point - that he brought up first - had nothing to do with the situation.

His had every thing to do with it, your was a red herring bigoted comment.

You never learn, do ya?

I'll set you straight on two more things:

You do realize that Catholics are (The original) Christians.

Lie. The Catholic church was founded sometime in the 3rd century AD. And for you people to say that Peter was the first pope is an even worse lie considering the early popes you all had.

His had every thing to do with it, your was a red herring bigoted comment.

Bigoted, huh. I notice you can't detract from the truth of the matter, which was the fact that you people have your own problems with pedo priests. A fact that even Psalm acknowledged in post 72.

Look pal. I could continue to pick you apart on the crap you post here, but I'm bored with you. So. Go ahead and post some other drivel - I don't care. I'm moving on.

Err... That would be me. I had no idea this thread was still going, and I appreciate the ping.

My thoughts on the thread is that it is pretty useless because people are opining all over the place from the specifics of this teacher, to unmarried pregnant women in general, without much differentiation between the two.

Regarding the Catholic church, I originally brought it up in respose to a general observation that single pregnant women are often treated poorly by some Christians who also espose pro-life views. I think the Catholics do a very good job of supporting women in that situation, offering BOTH spiritual guidance AND material assistance with an eye towards redemption of both the mother and the child. I raised the example because I think it is a good one, and worthy of emulation. I believe it is an example of living out the directions given to us by Christ himself, who saved the woman taken in adultery and then told her to go and sin no more, and who also ordered the apostles to suffer the children to come to him. More distantly but still relevant, the warning about millstones, necks, and deep water comes to mind with reference to treatment of the unborn and the just born.

That said, I am not a Catholic, although I am convicted that the Catholic Church is a conduit of God’s grace and salvation through Christ. For some reason that eludes me this usually irritates everyone. I hope I have not caused any confusion or discord as a result of my post. In truth, at this point I wish I had never posted in the thread at all.

I hope this clarifies things. Please ping me if it does not.
