Protestants and Sola Scriptura

A, retreads

LOL!

Some are wise beyond their years, aren't they?

:>)

There is nothing combative about someone saying the catechism deifies Mary, IF that is what they actually conclude from an honest perusal.

I envision the religion forum as a European cafe where folks of differing beliefs gather to discuss philosophy (in this case, more specifically: theology). We can go point for point for hours on end, often with voices raised, but in any case each speaking about why their belief is more faithful to Scripture, etc. Great stuff, and highly educational.

******************

I would guess that many of us here envisioned the same place, but were rudely brought to reality. It's unfortunate, but it seems we must work with what we have.

[trisham]

I think they say “love makes the world go round”, which may result in the same thing. :)

[Fichori]

Easy Petro.

I Never accused you of anything.

I only said thats what it LOOKED like you said AT FIRST GLANCE and asked you to clarify.

I never believed that you meant what appeared to be implied.

Thank you for clarifying.

[Running On Empty]

That’s what the mod tells us.

Is this deja vu all over again?

[Fichori]

"I think they say “love makes the world go round”, which may result in the same thing. :)"

Haha, so true!

[Marysecretary]

I’m a protty and I actually know of NO one in our area churches who are UFO fans. So, find someone else to insult.

[Petronski]

Please forgive me. You did not accuse me of anything.

Your question insinuated childishness on my part, but it was NOT an accusation.

[Marysecretary]

Yep, and he’s had a field day with the one true church theology. Cheez.

[Fichori]

Apology accepted.

And your right, I should have been more careful with my wording.

I shall try to be more careful in the future.

[Marysecretary]

Judith Anne, we already DO know the abiding truth. We are a part of the one true church, the body of Christ, with our Lord as its head. Jesus is our Saviour, our Lord, our Way, Truth and Life.

[Petronski]

That European cafe is what I want from the religion forum. Hour upon hour, but with respect.

I can smell the cigarettes and taste the rich stark espresso in the demitasse in my hand.

Just a place where I’m free to say “I think you believe X and I disagree” and the other guy is free to say “I don’t believe x, I believe non(x)...you missed (a) (b) and (c)” and I’m free to say “I don’t think I missed them, but I see why you agree non(x); I don’t agree, but I understand...”

And so on.

[Marysecretary]

Yes, we are committed to our faith in Christ. Sometimes we don’t act like it, but...we are human. Sigh.

[Petronski]

Be well new Freeper. Let us both try to be more polite than the other. If we’re both trying, it cannot fail.

[Marysecretary]

It will probably not end until Christ returns...smile.

[Marysecretary]

Yeah, but he’s a really GOOD kid.

[Petronski]

I guarantee to you that when Christ returns the anti-Catholic fetishism will end.

[Judith Anne]

Taking things out of context in order to feel

personally insulted for something which does not concern one specific poster

is, well, hilarious.

OR WOULD BE

If the person doing it were not in the rabid-dog attack mode for no discernible reason. Typical of the protties, though, and in sorrow for their sins,

I ask Blessed Mary, Ever Virgin, to pray for us, to the Lord Jesus Christ.

INDEED

[Fichori]

"Be well new Freeper. Let us both try to be more polite than the other. If we’re both trying, it cannot fail."

I'm actually not new to FR, only to posting on FR.

But I do agree with your statement.

Cough, cough. :) I'll be sitting at one of the umbrella tables on the sidewalk, usually with a cup of tea. Once in a while an espresso would be heavenly.

It sounds lovely.
