Why must you always resort to condesending remarks and statements D-Fender.....does it make you feel significant or something more that you have the need for that?
I realiz this is also taught within the catholic church..and the tactics of, but some catholics here I have thought higher of than that...you have slipped into that mode so I’m going to withdraw from further conversation.
Dear Caww,
I jumped in this discussion on your words: “What we do Not do is make an idol of her...pray to her...bow down to her...or call her equal to the savior in any way shape or form. Nor do we call her “the Holy Mother Of God’... as if God needed a mother.”
And the mushy headed ignorant wrong slurs against my Church, the Incarnate Word, His mother, the Most Holy Trinity, orthodox Christian Beliefs, the creeds, etc. just continue. These have not been apologized for, re-canted, or just dropped; if anything, they’ve increased.
Without defenders of the faith it would not exists for the ‘reformers’ to tinker with. I’ve defended them on the silly internet, the real Christian martyrs defended the very same faith with their lives.
Anyway, next from you comes ‘do you have the salvation I have,” and “but do you know Christ personally like I do...”
Condescension? Please...
Now, let’s discuss the issues all you wish, enough with the personal, I’m making my responses to your beliefs and your attacks on mine. If my responses are too sharp, there’s an easy way to avoid them. Stop attacking my faith and the Church.
Talk about how very wonderful yours is or something.
