annalex: You are hell bound, generally speaking, yes, by the fact of your being separated brethren.
annalex: I know, for example, that as an anti-Catholic you cannot go to heaven
Thanks for spelling it out down to those street-level specifics, annalex. For two days, your Catholic friends have been chiding us that no Catholic would ever say that sort of thing, and now a double-witness has been provided, for all to see, that some would. A lot of FRCatholics should be eating crow right about now, only I know it'll never happen. Catholics don't eat meat on Fridays.
By all means annalex, you go right on praying to Mary for my "conversion". I'll just keep praying to Jesus Christ for yours.
Alex,

The problem is Annalex - although imperfect like us all - is converted, while you show only a meanspiritedness in attacking the Church every day and even going way out of your way to do it.
Let’s see:
Here’s what we had to work with:
“Show me one Catholic on this forum who has consigned any poster to hell....Even hedging your bets, I don’t think you’ll find one. And even if you do find a poster who said that, they are wrong and in conflict with the teaching of the Church.”
Now here’s Alex’s proof - after much waiting which shows this certainly is less common than Protestants attacking Catholics here:
“annalex: You are hell bound, generally speaking, yes, by the fact of your being separated brethren.”
Well, that doesn’t work. Hell bound is not the same as consigning someone to hell. So, your example fails immediately, Alex. Next:
“annalex: I know, for example, that as an anti-Catholic you cannot go to heaven.”
Well, some might say that not going to heaven is not necessarily going to hell, but even if taken in the most immediate sense this too is not a consignment to hell. Annalex is probably correct in that someone filled with anti-Catholic spirit cannot be right with God after all.
And the context of these statements would have been nice too, Alex.
I think you got close, but I still don’t see any automatic consignment to hell there.
And the first statement had "generally speaking" in it, which is importantly different from "categorically speaking". And the second post was about anti-Catholics, which is a class not identical with "Protestant".
Looks like crow's back OFF the menu, boys.
Quick, what year is this?
And they were correct. My expectation of your conversion and consequent salvation is right in the post you quote from.
AAAAAMEN, ALEX.
