LOL. The "shot" was not mine, but yours. I haven't called anyone a "heretic."

You are entitled to call whomever whatever names you wish. Most likely, you'll still be on this forum after calling all Calvinists "heretics" not once, not twice, but now at least three times.

Others are not allowed such latitude with the language.

Such is life. Nobody said it was fair.

But at least you are on record now as denouncing Bible-believing, Christ-worshipping, God-fearing, Trinitarian Christians as "heretics."

What's so objectionable? Just check the dictionary:
her·e·tic ( P ) Pronunciation Key (hr-tk) n. A person who holds controversial opinions, especially one who publicly dissents from the officially accepted dogma of the Roman Catholic Church.

But has Eckleburg preached a new Gospel? Has she preached another Jesus? Or is her, and our guilt, in your eyes, from not following Catholic dogma? There's a verse in the bible: Teacher, they are not following us. What did Jesus say about that?

The point was not the definition of heretic, catholic or otherwise.

The point was D. insisted no one used the term, heretic, to describe anyone in this discussion.

He was proven wrong.
