My statement was carefully worded . . . something the RCP2 problem may obscure.
I said nothing about God using such
in addition I said nothing about God using OTHER factors, means, supernatural whatevers
to effect conversion.
I merely commented on the objective research on such matters. Of course, we Prottys are well aware of the RC magicsterical’s denial of normal historical, Biblical and dictionary realities . . . denial of a lot of normal reality, actually.
Thankfully, God has used a number of miraculous etc. influences not that dissimilar to the Damascus Road experience of Paul . . . in moving quite a number of former RC’s into a dynamic, alive, Holy Spirit led Protty Christian walk.
PRAISE GOD FOR THAT!
...is not "merely commenting" on "objective research." It is an evaluation.
Funny, I always find much more carefully worded comments in extrication than in proposition.
