I hate to tell you, but I have been studying the Early Fathers of The Catholic Church for over twenty years. All you have demonstrated is the same false exegesis in reading and understanding the fathers that you have demonstrated in reading and interpreting Holy Scripture. Heresy will do that to you.

Everything written was pretty clear. We don’t need to spin it.

There is a syndrome at work here of those who sadly refuse to engage in intelligent dialog because some part of their souls fears being convinced of the truth of Catholicism.

This is both bitter (in that they resist His truth so powerfully) and yet sweet (because this behavior acknowledges by fear the truth of Catholicism).

Pray for these souls, brother, as will I.

La te da! "Studying" the same Apologetics sources for 20 years is a repetetive study of the same propaganda for 20 years.

You have submitted your intellect to the Magisterium and can't be expected to do an independent study.

Big’ol, scholarship is not going to impress these people. You’d just as well brag to a vegetarian of your favorite steakhouse.
