I don’t think you are capable of coming close to understanding the writing and inner lives of Mother Teresa - or St. Teresa of Avila or St. Teresa of Lisieux, or a great many others. I don’t think you have the background to even begin to have a clue about their lives or their writings.

LOL. I don't have the background? Oh, I'm slain through the heart.

If this were not so, there’d be some point to reply to you.

I've noticed that when RC apologists are losing a debate and can't think of anything to say their posts get nastier and more personal.

I’m happy to debate. And have done so with those giving it a good try. I enjoy it and I think both sides of the debate can benefit from it, as well as honoring our values.

I think it requires trying to get the other’s view correct, and attempting to understand them with some measure of respect.

I don’t feel it is nasty to require this or explain it or point out when it is lacking.

"I've noticed that when RC apologists are losing a debate...

This is not a debate or a game, it is a dead serious refutation of reformist and calvinist lies. Stating and reiteration of the truth in defense of the Catholic Church is not done to win some sort of contest or to declare oneself the victor, it is done because it is right.
