“Too funny.”
Protestant failure would be funny . . . if souls were not at stake.
Romanist denials would be way funnier if so many souls were not being held in bondage 'neath layers of ridiculous religiosity.
The modern-day theologian I was quoting was not/is not himself so much wrapped up in religiosity (as far as I can tell) yet his own words in that particular book do very much undermine your own contentions.
Would you care to know who that theologian is?
