Why was swampfox allowed to say, “It’s >You, the Catholic Church and the pope that >”dispise” Christ & His word?”
Yet, I was warned for saying, “you don’t understand it.”

The guideline on the Religion Forum to not "make it personal" applies to other Freepers, personally - not to Popes, Churches, Dieties, etc.

Swampfox101, on post 130 you were reading gghd's mind and therefore "making it personal" when you said:

Its you ... that dispise Christ and His word

Both of you, "discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal."

Thank you for your reply.

As I understand your reply:

1. I’m allowed to criticize ‘the pope of swampfox’s armchair church.’

2. I’m allowed to say ‘pope-swampfox’s armchair church teaches false doctrine.’

3. I’m allowed to say, ‘the pope of swampfox’s armchair church sounds similar to ‘Harold Camping of end of the world fame.’

+ I have >specifically heard Harold Camping on his Radio Programs make specific anti-Catholic statements. & Harold Camping has professed a Predestination view of Salvation with a very limited number of people entering Heaven.
As you must have read comment #130 by now, pope-swampfox thinks only 6-8 million people are part of the ‘Lord’s Church.’
That is an amazing >exclusionary number out of 7 Billion people on earth.
As an observation, that number sounds more like a >cult-religion. Cults are discussed on freerepublic. = Please, don’t consider it a ‘personal statement’ directed to someone. Please consider it simply a descriptive term found on freerepublic.

4. When people deny membership in >any visible church, the only option left is to refer to them as ‘their name & armchair church.’ ‘Or as pope-name.’

5. Pope-swampfox was posting as the authority on scripture. That’s why I referred to him as ‘pope of scriptures’ & ‘pope of his armchair church.’

Religion Moderator, I did NOT NOT see in the guidelines where ‘asking a question over & over was considered
badgering.’ I thought it was extremely deceitful for pope-swampfox to deny any >visible church & then complain when we asked him (as pope of his own church) about his views.

I repeatedly ask deceitful pope-swampfox to explain where he learned his view of the scriptures. The fact he was so evasive about radio-preachers led me to ask the question 3 times.

Also, as a general question:
‘Are Religion Moderators members of a church or Religion that is hostile to the Roman Catholic Church.’
In my opinion based on two admonishments & viewing numerous comments by people that >hate the Catholic Church, there is a definite animosity towards the Catholic Church by at least one if not more Religion Moderators.

For the record: I was arguing with pope-swampfox as though he was a >pope of sorts. = The pope of his peewee armchair church & pope of the scriptures.

In the Roman Catholic Church, the title pope is one of honor. I do believe that pope-swampfox should be honored when Catholics refer to him as pope!!!

Thank you for your time. It’s a difficult job trying to be a Religion Moderator on a Roman Catholic thread where >hate-mongers are allowed to post insults against Catholics & the Catholic Church with impunity.
