If you ally with non Trinitarians on certain Trinitarian debates, then you may be leaving yourself open to such commentary, I'm afraid. You know (hopefully) that I hold you in rather high regard, dear bb,

Except that I have NEVER aligned myself with "non Trinitarians on certain Trinitarian debates". If the topic is the Trinity and someone is expressing doubts or disbelief in the doctrine, I HAVE engaged with them on the subject - though I am not saying I have participated on every such thread. I have responsibilities that preclude me from doing so. However, when I have participated, I dispute the false doctrine that says Jesus is not God in the flesh or that Almighty God is not revealed to us as a Triune God.

I am happy to hear of your regard for me and I can reciprocate, though, like family, we may all "get" to each other from time to time. I rejoice that there is not residual animosity even though we wrestle over some doctrine.

As to Cronos' insistence that NO non-Catholics EVER dispute non-trinitarians when Catholics are involved in the discussion, and that we are "all out to get you 'caflics'" (or however he spelled it), I still disagree. That implies that non-Catholics care more about attacking Catholics than they do defending Christian tenets. It is demonstrably untrue despite a few threads dug up from years past. That was what my response was about.

It gets a little fine as we wander into past posts.

Very good. I've been relatively absent on FR lately. No time...

There was a substantial cabal in which you participated over a period of some years in which the Catholic position was debated rather contentiously. In that cabal were some demonstrably non Christians who were not only supported but encouraged.

proof? remember that you asked for proof for my statements and I gave them to you, so now I courteously ask you to do the same...

I'm not implying, i'm stating it as a fact that non-Catholics care more about attacking Catholics than they do defending Christian tenets.

if you have any thread to the contrary, let's make it simpler, specifically on Trinitarian issues, I would be grateful to see them.. thanks
