This also was not meant to be persuasive or polemical but rather expository, and I hope it was useful.

I think you did a great job, myself. Yours is the type of explanation that actually draws people to examine Catholic doctrine a bit deeper - I think it works a LOT better than just telling people they are wrong or expecting them to accept that you are right from the outset!

Very nicely done. This is the type of discussion I like to see around here. :-)

You and me both, sister in Christ!

I appreciate seeing discussions like yours with Mad Dawg. Nobody gets anywhere with insults and degredation. I wish some of the people on these threads would see that.

Thanks to both of you.
