Let's remember, there is only one religion that is intolerant. That's where the real threat resides.

Thank you for your statement here.

I understand you stick dogmatically to church doctrine, you likely believe the Pope is infallible, etc.

Really? How about I say you dogmatically disagree with Catholicism?

Or we could debate issues on their merit.

I'd be fine with that. But I prefer you say I 'dogmatically' do not view any living human as infallible, let alone a successive line of them.

What a funny coincidence (really!). From the dictionary.com definition of "dogma":

2. a specific tenet or doctrine authoritatively laid down, as by a church: the dogma of the Assumption; the recently defined dogma of papal infallibility. Synonyms: tenet, canon, law.

I will say something else complementary about the Catholic Church: in organized religion, there is no better voice for the pro-life movement than the Catholic Church! The best moral arguments, the most intellectual arguments seem to come from the Catholic Church. And, over time, the most consistent arguments favoring the protection of the unborn.
