Thank you, good Christian, but I have just as much right to be here as you do.

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.

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.

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.

It simply proved what was said in the article: that most non-Catholic Christians don't believe.

I had included in my note to you mention (and Scriptural basis) of how communion of the saints could be understood.

Why the disruption?

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?

But, as always, "Do what thou wilt."

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.
