Speaking of the point, we were discussing your line - "Yet what does Catholicism preach? Say 10 "Our Fathers and 12"Hail Marys" and you'll be forgiven!!??

I didn't write that.

What was his graduate degree in and how many theology courses did he take? Maybe he didn't study Penance.

lol. More justification by legislation, eh? I would bet my husband studied more about "Penance" than you have thus far as a convert.

By the grace of God, he was turned away from the errors of Rome and led to the truth of God's word.

I have no clue how that happened. I intended all that for Gargantua.

Yo! Gargantua:

I guess my husband had "lousy catechesis," too.

This calls for speculation.

(In the book, wasn't Gargantua a male?)

What was his graduate degree in and how many theology courses did he take? Maybe he didn't study Penance. If your husband thinks that we teach that penance causes forgiveness then either he had bad catechesis or he missed the point somehow.

If you want to change the subject, that's fine, but I like to keep track. I'm arguing that that is a false description of what the Church teaches. Are we going to talk about your husband now?
