I thought the debate was what to CALL the Church and what names we would use while we were working out which, if any, of them had a colorable claim to being 'the Church.'

But clearly some are so eager to issue a verdict that they cannot delay long enough to understand the question, even when they're the ones asking it.

No, that was never the debate. The question merely centered around who could claim the language that implied that their particular CAUCUS was the default Church.

???SAY WHUT????

I'm happy to call Vatican Affiliates et al

FOYF Folks Of Your Fellowship

or

Vaticans et al

OR

something else agreeable.

I'm not willing to use a label I consider heretical, sinfully arrogant, historically inaccurate--i.e. a historical lie etc.

And, just as most of the rabid Vaticans et al cliques have 1,001 things that their posting style and !!!!CONTROL!!!! PHREAQUE !!!!DEMANDS!!!!! about Trinitarian Protty Christians !!!!REQUIREMENTS!!!! to kowtow, submit, grovel, kiss toes, bow and scrape before the INSTITUTIONAL ALTAR of Romanism etc . . . . just as they indicate that they have 1,001 things that are NON-NEGOTIABLE,

This issue and my now deep seated convictions about it, are non-negotiable.

Doesn't mean I love anyone any less. Doesn't mean I respect anyone any less. Just means I've been forced to draw a line in the sand and I've drawn it, as best as I can discern, where The Lord would have me draw it.

I hope that's clearer.

Just because I post lies about your Church and your faith at every turn, doesn't mean I love anyone any less. Doesn't mean I respect anyone any less.

REALLY!

[Petronski]

Just because I hate the Catholic Church so much that I cannot even refer to it by name, that doesn't mean I love anyone any less. Doesn't mean I respect anyone any less.

REALLY!
