The usual gang has done exactly what I expected them to do. I’m not concerned.
I’ve heard so many times that we Catholics fall in lock-step, we aren’t allowed to read the Bible for ourselves, we can’t decide for ourselves what to think, we are told we have to agree on everything or our Church will send us to hell —
well, I don’t like St. Paul, I never have, and so far, no Catholic has told me that the Church says I will go to hell for it.
But the non-Catholics? Heh. The invective has been interesting. Not only that, they have attributed my own personal opinion to all Catholics, even when other Catholics strongly disagree with me.
Illustrates something about the non-Catholics. Very very clearly.

Not hardly. I asked if this line of thinking was the party line.
Hyperbole is clearly in play here, which clearly illustrates something about the FROman Catholic MO.
That's odd. I read the Bible for myself, decide for myself what to think, don't agree with everything the church teaches and you've essentially agreed with the Catholic church that I'm going to hell for it.
