"how is this not personal?

Thank you, but I didn't take it as personal. I understand Iscool has issues with Catholics and Catholicism, but the fact that the Holy Spirit keeps bringing him back to these threads so he can be presented with the truth gives me great solace. If he were to ignore me and these posts how will we ever reach him?

I am happy to suffer his abuse and turn the other cheek in His name.

Peace be with you.

Statements worded as questions are rarely "making it personal."

For instance, "Are you a heretic?" is not making it personal but "You are a heretic" is making it personal.

However it is "making it personal" when the discussion is redirected from issues to individual Freepers. Certain lines of questions can have that affect.

Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.
