Ah yes, winding up with the same tired and worn out old Latin insult as to Orthodox Christianity:

* I have already told you I am done responding to you. One reason I am done responding is typified by this post. My post to another gentleman had nothing to do with an insult to orthodoxy and it was not directed at you. It had to do with the gentleman's refusal to shake hands during the Catholic Liturgy. It was not directed at you. It had nothing to do with you or Orthodoxy.

In FACT, the gentleman I quoted, Jeroslav Pelikan IS ORTHODOX. A CONVERT TO ORTHODOXY FROM LUTHERANISM. SO HOW COULD HIS QUOTE BE TAKEN BY YOU TO BE AN INSULT TO ORTHODOX CHRISTIANITY IS BEYOND ME AND, FURTHERMORE, SO FAR BEYOND ME I DON'T CARE TO HEAR THE EXPLANATION WHY YOU CONSIDER IT DOES APPLY TO YOU OR ORTHODOXY.

And from here on out, I will have nothing to do with you.

Please stop pinging me.

"My post to another gentleman...Please stop pinging me"
Now that I think about it, you're probably right. I took the Pelikan remark the wrong way, probably because he is well known as being a leader in the "development" school of thught that the West is presently enslaved by.

Are you the character who asked me not to send you any PMs? That really mystified me because, to tell you the truth, I cannot recall having sent you any in the first place.

Just my personal opinion, but I think you seem to have some issues to deal with, as I see from some of your posts. Are you a "still feeling very much wounded" Sen. John Kerry supporter maybe? Or are you afraid of the new Pope of Rome, fearful he might tell you to start fasting again on Fridays?
