I simply post the NGR apology and move on. It seems some of the faucets around here do not run hot and cold, but Gibberish and Hate.

Do not let the heretic, the apostate and the heathen So, it seems inescapable that in the view of the poster I'm responding to, I personally am
an apostate, heretic and heathen.
Thankfully, God has a very different perspective on my person and my soul.
However, it was a fascinating personal assault. A little late--here it is already after noon. I was beginning to miss my morning personal assault. I was beginning to feel unloved by my dear RC bretheren and sistern.

After 2 cups of coffee while looking thru the latest posts on this thread, I see a lot of name-calling by one side who also appears to be crying persecution and hitting the abuse button at the same time. What a bizarro world, and no senses of humor either.

Tsk Tsk . . .
putting words in my fingers again that I didn’t write.
I thought RC’s were the experts on bearing false witness.
Oh, right, some ARE . . . in a manner of speaking.

Sure. It was fortheDeclaration.
If fortheDeclaration made an absolute unqualified, statement that you were going to hell I will join you in condemming the hubris involved. Not one of us can claim to know the "future" of another.
I wish you could identify a post or two which justify your claim. I don't doubt your honesty but I sometimes doubt your ability to objectively interpret what was actually said.

Gibberish alert.
I don’t need to call my support staff every time I have to wipe my nose.

When a Christian departs from grace, there is either repentence, or a retreat into legalism.

Yeah, Prottys observe a LOT of that within the RC edifice.

I bow to greater expertise in the RC edifice in that regard.

About time for the RC mind-reading/heart-reading to get back on—err off track.

Scripture exhorts us to use Godly judgment in a number of respects and contexts. Though I note you decline to be more specific as to what those circumstances are....

TO ME the words/phrases themselves IN SUCH A CONTEXT are inherently blasphemous.But when I ask to be shown how they are inherently blasphemous, I get no answer.
It is so because you perceive it to be so? And you say WE are haughty?
I make an analogy to show how praising Mary with over-the-top titles is glorifying God for his work, and how begrudging such praise is like someone enviously condemning a person who sees and praises the beauty of the moon for forgetting the sun.
Do I get an argument? No. I get that somewhere in a galaxy far, far away there are examples of idolatry and a repetition that the words are per se idolatrous.
The questions are dodged, reason is despised, and the charge is repeated.
This Cor ad cor loquitur stuff is all very well as far as it goes. But when it comes to saying, "You're guilty because .. because, well because I just KNOW you are," well, it doesn't move the ball.
(Excuse me, I'm going for the prize for most mixed metaphors in one day.)

Ahhhh welllll . . . it’s
SOP
for the RC edifice as we’ve seen for many years.
I think we have to be compassionate and keep in mind the clay whereof we were all dug.
It is sad that Mary couldn’t find at least a few grams of humor in all her white hankys somewhere to toss down to the bereft RC’s hereon.

Support staff???
I think I’m missing something here.
Except for The Truth of The Scriptures and The Lord God Almighty, I don’t see any support staff here???
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh, the buddies I often share the jokes with! Those characters! LOL.
Sorry their mirth doesn’t show up publically very often.

I have lots to say about the RC “priesthood” but I’ll stay focused on Marianism here. There is more to be said and the error is more obvious.

Really?
Oh, dear . . . heathen competition. Who’d a thunk!
LOL.
Thankfully, Their clumsiness in pinning the tail on the Cassocks leaves them little skill in pinning the tail on the heathen!
