This thread is very much like one we had a year or so ago when a bunch of Protestants were trying to challenge the "Catholic Caucus" designation on the basis that the word "catholic" means "universal."

The Orthodox also were involved in the dispute and believed they should always be included in Catholic Caucuses. But there was an interest among the Latin Rite Catholics to caucus among themselves.

The issues of "once a Catholic, always a Catholic" was also raised.

And it went round and round.

The previous dispute was ended when I explained that the caucus titles are used for moderating purposes to determine who should not be posting on the thread and from that day forward “Catholic Caucus” would include any Freeper who currently, actively believes in Papal Supremacy. And if the caucus is to include Orthodox, the designation "Catholic/Orthodox Caucus" is to be used.

At post 110 you quote me with emphasis as follows:

Members of the Sola Scriptura Caucus are those who currently believe that Scriptures contain all knowledge necessary for salvation and holiness.

Non-members would include those who embrace Sacred Traditions such as Catholics, Jews who embrace the Talmud, Atheists, Agnostics, Mormons who embrace the Book of Mormon, etc.

At least two sects of Judaism - Karaites and Ananites - reject the Talmud and Mishna which are Rabbianic writings roughly equivalent to the Catholic's Sacred Tradition and Catechism. Freepers who are members of those sects would have an interest in a Sola Scriptura Caucus.

If anyone wishes to challenge a caucus label or whether the article is appropriate for a caucus, send me a Freepmail.

Do NOT disturb a caucus by making challenges on thread.

"Do NOT disturb a caucus by making challenges on thread."

There you go again.

Trying to be sensible.

How can we have a hebrephrenic cat fight with sensible in the mix?

Nice to see you around . . . even at this late date in the thread! LOL.

I’m thinking that maybe it might be wise for all the threads to be open threads, unless they were prayer or devotion like in the old days.

Am I being foolish. Jesus tells us not to be foolish in the ways of the world.

Hmmmm.
