Over the past several months I have slowly come to the realization that for the most part Catholics seek to build the kingdom of God through prayer, spiritual reading, spiritual and corporal works of mercy, etc....
While at the same time there is a dedicated cadre of anti-Catholics Haunt these threads attempting to tear down the truth the Catholic Church spreads to the world.
Few if any of them have any understanding of history and even less of the Greek language.
They become self righteously indignant and resort to "Where is that in the Bible?", when challenged to actually think and use things like reason, logic and legitimate historical sources.
I wish I could say they were blissfully ignorant, but you can see the anger oozing into so many of their posts.
Verga, take a look at Numbers 21: 4-9 then go to 2 Kings 18 and see how idol worship must be dealt with when it inveigles a people.
Yet you ignore the Greek in Luke 1.
