Were it "ALL ABOUT JESUS" there would be far greater emphasis on the actual words and examples of Jesus instead of the misinterpretation of the words and works of those who came later to merely spread the Good News. Without the letters of Paul the Gospels would still be all that is necessary for Salvation. Without the Gospels, the letters of Paul are empty and meaningless.

Ah yes, let's toss out Paul the loony. I've heard the writings of John of Patmos should be tossed, too. Thanks to the hard work of so many faithful Catholic FReepers, the Church is down to just three Gospels and a handful of Epistles. Oh, and Tradition.

To: Alex Murphy; Natural Law; Religion Moderator; Running On Empty

Bringing comments from a thread that was closed LAST APRIL onto this thread, comments which have nothing to do with the present subject under discussion (unless the only subject is anti-Catholicism) is about the least logical or Christian thing I can imagine.

I was dogpiled in that thread, if you want to bring it up here, and I did not complain, and I answered those who disagreed with me. None of their arguments changed my mind. Keeping MY remarks (and not the remarks made to me) in a file, and hauling out the file when I have not participated in the Religion Forum for several weeks, appears to be a gesture calculated to start an argument.

I decline. I would like the Religion Moderator to rule about dragging stuff from old, closed threads onto a current thread, if it is not inconvenient. Because I thought that was against the RF guidelines.

If it is not against the guidelines, I chastise you, Alex, for keeping personal files on FReepers with whom you disagree, then hauling them out for some unknown purpose. Again, NOTHING any proddie said on that thread changed my mind, nothing impressed me as being Christian, and I doubt it ever will. Your actions are very like stalking, as I have purposely AVOIDED YOU due to typically unpleasant interactions.

ROE, I pinged you because you have counseled me to avoid discussion of Paul. As you can see, it is not all that simple. And others have evidently piled on.
