Attack?

Hardly. Many Catholics (and apparently you are one of them) think that the Christian unity spoken of in the Bible is all about non-catholics becoming Catholic. In response to that comment I made, you mention all kinds of unrelated Bible verses. Why? What is the purpose?

Do you ever hear Evangelicals making the same point, that Christian unity depends on Catholics accepting protestant doctrine? No, you don’t. Do you wonder why? Could it be because Biblically sound Evangelicals know how the Bible defines a Christian. They know that the unity question doesn’t mean that believers are to toss aside the clear teaching of Scripture to join forces with those who have nothing to offer them with respect to their salvation.

Have a nice day!

If you read the entire article, and my comment, you would see that the post was about common ground as human beings. Yes, I am Catholic. I make no secret of the fact. Why would I?

I'm used to remarks against my Faith. Being told to "get a life"- those who know me would never say that. My life is very difficult right now, in a variety of ways, but I still consider myself blessed, for my Faith, Family, and Friends- what we jokingly refer to as the 3 F's that make one's life worthwhile. And, being Italian, there's a fourth: Food!

Neither of us know one another. I turned the other cheek and got slapped again. That's OK. I've been in the seventy times seven times category for a long time now. God bless you - and you have a nice day, too! : )

I'm curious. I responded to you in post#20. I may have made a typo or three, ("shu" should read "sun"for example: pardon me, my vision isn't what it used to be) where did I do that?

I didn't think my eyes were that bad! : )
