Well it’s Catholic theology and we are dealing here with a Catholic defense of it, so it is up to the Catholics to give why it is. if it can’t be defended logically then it can’t.
>>Well it’s Catholic theology <<
Where is it Catholic theology? Can you give us a link to it so we can see?
When I said it was up to someone to quell reasonable doubts of innocence and that this was a Protestant principle, I was ridiculed.
Now when somebody makes some wild and crazy charges against us it is our theology and up to us to provide a defense? And all the less do I think so when I have been shown that "drive them nuts" is a strategy of some Protestant posters (and when drawing the logical conclusion from this and stating it is called "foul and disingenuous").
Let somebody show a serious interest in what we teach and display serious desire to understand and evaluate, and we can discuss all these things in candor.
Otherwise, well, what you see is what you get.
It is not. It might be the theology of "a" Catholic or "some" Catholics, but it is not a teaching of the Catholic Church.
