“FRiend, are you just *trying* to be a troll? This is obviously a Catholic issue, dealing with internal policies (I use those words specifically for those who don’t acknowledge Divine mandates and obedience to Church Law) of the Catholic Church... so: why would you have a gripe with it at all? I’m not at all sure why you’d complain.”
Open Threads are open to comments. Caucus Threads are closed to everyone outside the caucus designation. This is an open thread, ergo I’m posting a comment. I’m afraid you’ll have to cope.
As to the rest, I understand the Roman position, but it is inaccurate - read false. This is why I pointed it out.
You misunderstand me, FRiend. I didn’t say that you didn’t have the RIGHT to be a troll (given the lack of a “Caucus” title); of course, you do. Troll away, as you wish. I merely said that you seemed to be aspiring to be a troll, with your drive-by, illogical, inflammatory comment about something about which you’d have no good reason to be concerned in the least (outside of spite, and an urge to kick the Catholic Church when you see an opportunity which appeals to you). Who’s forcing your local faith community not to baptize or to include as many adulterers to your “Lord’s Supper” celebration as you please?
Let me put it another way, in case that wasn’t clear enough: your comment was almost completely false; and the extent to which it was not false was the extent to which it was so wildly illogical as to be a non-sequitur. Given your comment, I’m afraid I have to say that you’re throwing rocks at something which you don’t understand at all.
