Do you really think we DON’T pray that Catholics will find the peace of God. All I ever hear from Catholics is how much we hate you. That couldn’t be further from the truth. I wouldn’t waste my time, energy and high blood pressure on any of this stuff if I didn’t care about Catholics and their eternal souls. I have the Peace of God because Jesus is my Lord and Saviour. I want that for all Catholics. We aren’t persecuting you. That’s such a ridiculous outlook. None of us enjoys the nasty comments that RC’s spit at us either. It’s not ‘fun’ for us to hear some of the things that are said about protestants from Catholics.

This is the ego thing again. I don’t care what you all think of me because of my faith. If I did, I’d jump right back over the Tiber into Protestantville. I don’t care what you think about the dispostion of my soul, only what God thinks about it.

The Catholic Church is the Body of Christ, when you deliberately slander her you slander Christ. Not me, it isn’t all about me, it is about Father, Son and Holy Spirit, it is about obeying what it says in the Bible, it is about not skipping the parts that I don’t like and just taking that part I do, it is not beginning new “churches” in my own image or opinion. It is about the authority of the Church spoken in the Bible and obeying that authority because that same authority was established by God and protected by the Holy Spirit.

I don’t care if you believe it but if you don’t I believe you leave out the fullness of the Truth. I believe you live a partial life in the Grace of God when you could have the fullness of all that has been left to us. That is your choice, I don’t care that you have made that choice, I believe in the Grace of God and the Infinite Mercy of Jesus. I will not limit God but I will take all the gifts Jesus gave us, without shame.

I will love God above all, I will worship through His, One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church regardless of what you say and regardless of what you feel. I will venerate Mary and the saints who have given us example and through the Grace of God, I will love those who persecute Christ by persecuting His Church. “Lord, forgive them for they know not what they do.”

Misunderstandings and ignorance are understandable but deliberate libel is another.

No Mary, I don't believe any of that for a minute. Even as an Evangelical I never subjected Catholics to the type of supercilious,doctrinaire, accusations your side practices as a matter of course.

Don't you wonder why your side doesn't have an equivalent term to sado-evangelist?

It's because you practice it, and we don't.
