as you should have known, just that the UU church is often attacked by Roman Catholics

Your statements did not attack the UU church it questioned the Christianity of a dear friend that always displayed more Christian charity than I see from the vast majority of the anti-Catholics on this forum.

Once again I find myself having to backtrack this thread for you and correct what seems to be your very faulty memory. When I asked what seminary you attended that would admit students that were Catholic, Baptist and UU, you replied:

It was a Catholic one. Why wouldn’t it admit Christians of any faith that sought admittance?

To which I replied:

Since when are Unitarian Universalists consider "Christians" in Roman Catholicism?

Is it coming back to you now? This happens to be a very logical question as it is unusual for a religious institution to accept students of religions foreign to the one they follow as an institution. That was the case with the college I attended. And, again I didn't question anyone's personal faith. What this feigned outrage only proves to me is that the Christian "charity" bemoaned as lacking in others is nearly always found lacking worse in the ones doing the moaning.

So what? Good works mean nothing if they aren't works that come from a heart of belief. There can be really nice people who are on their way to hell because they reject Jesus.

Don't forget, not everyone who says *Lord, Lord* is known by Jesus.

We can't judge their heart and so are in no position to determine their final destiny.

And besides, you do not know how much *Christian charity* a person has or shows in their personal lives.

Just because they say something you may not want to hear, does not mean they are not Christian. After all, Jesus said a lot of things the Pharisees didn't want to hear and they had Him crucified over it. Could HE be accused of not showing *Christian charity*?
