"No, I am offering my opinion as to what the Roman Catholic church practices and believes."

You didn't qualify your posting as an opinion. In the future you have an obligation to the truth, if not the rules, to cite your sources even when it is your own imagination.

[Dr. Eckleburg]

There is no rule that says we must preface every statement offered with "It is my opinion that..."

We can criticize ideas, beliefs, practices all we want. We simply cannot make it personal by criticizing individual FReepers.

It's a good rule. A simple rule. Some RC apologists have actually learned this rule. Sadly, the majority of RCs on these threads have not.

Don't give up trying. It's worth the effort.
