Thank you, good Christian, but I have just as much right to be here as you do. What I was wondering was why people who don't believe in the Communion of Saints felt it necessary to jump on before half a dozen posts. It simply proved what was said in the article: that most non-Catholic Christians don't believe. Why the disruption? You have plenty of anti Catholic fodder to read. But, as always, "Do what thou wilt."
None have "rights" to post comment here. It's more like a privilege.
But you did say that the thread was by and for "Catholics".
And then appeared to be indiscriminately complaining about disagreements expressed by others.
Communion of saints, and actually praying TO departed saints are not necessarily the same thing. Those two things were not identical/overlapping in the first few centuries of the Church.
I had included in my note to you mention (and Scriptural basis) of how communion of the saints could be understood.
What disruption?
If my own objections to things you have written here are "disruptive", then what of your own overall approach which is usually packed with negative commentary (and side-bars) filled with complaint about "Protestants"? Additionally, yourself having told others here on an open thread that this one was by and for "Catholics" does look like effort to stifle dissent.
Would that not be sort-of stealthily disruptive of their own rights privileges?
You've as much told me that you yourself will being doing that very thing.
Yet somehow, when it comes to those in disagreement with yourself...it's (perhaps) Aleister Crowley-like?
High-and-mighty, Romish jedi mind tricks don't work on me, FRiend. I've seen it all before.
It PROVES nothing; other than you can take anything and then CLAIM it 'proves' something.
