Reading these Papist threads on the RF reminds me of reading the reverse psychology lies Pravda put out back in the days of the soviets. The lead article has the Papacy a continuity going back to the original church of the New Testament, thus, in effect attacking, not just the Church of England, but by extension every Protestant.
Then, when any Protestant disagrees with their propaganda, he is said to be "attacking." They can attack at will, especially on this RCC RF, but if anyone disagrees, HE is the attacker. Go figure. It's Pravda reverse psychology they use.
This thread had nothing to do with Protestants but was something addressed by a Catholic bishop to Catholics, reflecting on the state of the Church.
To immediately go from this into bizarre fundamentalist Protestant anti-Catholic charges is to me an attack.
Christ established the Catholic Church and Its been here ever since. If that bothers you take it up with God.
Who forces you to read them?
I have often compared their behavior to the modern libs.
Disagree and we are called haters.
Of course modern libs are similar to Marxists.
We both disagree about that. That disagreement is symmetrical, so on that alone neither side has a right to complain about being "attacked". However, Catholic beliefs about the nature of the Church and the Papacy have existed since the time of Christ, -- like them or not. The Protestant ecclesiological fantasies were invented by Luther and the rest of your fellow charlatans around 1500 AD. That part is not symmetrical. Protestantism only exists in order to attack the Catholic doctrine and is useless outside of that silly endeavor.
