Steelfish,

You can, of course, post however you wish. It just fails to be persuasive to anyone who does not already pre-believe all the Catholic stuff.

Are you only trying to speak to Catholics?

I spoke to you kindly. I tried to help you view your posts from another’s point of view. I’m guessing you are not aware of how you come across.

Since you fail to use evidence, logic and facts, I conclude you have none.

Your posts are filled with truth claims you do not back up. We watch. We ask. They just fall to the ground like deflated Christmas lawn art when dawn comes.

FRiend, you refer to your converted champion as a “extraordinary Protestant scholar”. Not only is this not true, but it is a logical fallacy of argument. An appeal to authority instead of evidence, logic and facts. As such, it is rejected. I’ve already given you my reasons specific to him, but of course it remains a logical fallacy.

That and ad hominem are the “arguments” of the post.

Already recognized as just air.

Is that all you have???

Kindest regards.

Well, I have set forth the findings of a former Protestant historian who sought to show why Catholicism was wrong and after several years of scholarly study at Wheaton College ended up converting to Catholicism.

Is this ad hominem?

Dr. David Anders in his own words:

“I also realized that Protestantism was a confused mass of inconsistencies and tortured logic. Not only was Protestant doctrine untrue, it bred contention, and could not even remain unchanged. The more I studied, the more I realized that my evangelical heritage had moved far not only from ancient Christianity, but even from the teaching of her own Protestant founders.”

Blessings,
Steelfish
