I hear you. What I posted in, I believe 38, was posted AFTER a couple of posts came attacking the Pope and the Catholic church.

It seems that every single thread, even one proposing a discussion of Christian unity morphs into contention.

I posted a link to the Schaeffer book “The Mark of a Christian” to see if coming at the same ideas from a non Catholic belief might engender at least civil discussion.

It was not my intention to create more ill will on this thread. But, I think that is impossible regardless of how carefully and sincerely one tries.

fwiw, I did not even understand the “caveman” comment.

Yes, I see what you mean. I saw at least a couple, and the one recommending the pope read the bible didn't set too well with myself either...and I almost responded to that to express how my own disagreement as for the appropriateness of the remark.

But thank you kindly for your reply.

Yes, I see for myself to have been intended some expression of agreement, while wrapped in semi-joking reference to a an auto insurance commercial from some years ago now, was far too obscure, and less than clear on my own part, so the responsibility for anyone much not "getting it" as that saying goes, for an admittedly strange mix of agreement & joshing around which was contained in the quip is truly enough my own. So my apologies.
