Pardon me for observing, Pius, but how in the world are statements like “you have no credibility” and “you appear to be a dogmatic sedeplenist” NOT personal?

Well if one parses words, then sure it can all sound personal. The complete sentence was “if you do XYZ, then you have no credibility”. In addition, I said one “appears to be” which is not the same thing as saying one “is”.

Of course when others tend to make things personal it does make it even harder for the receiving poster to remain objective in his/her posts. Perhaps if others would refrain from judging fellow Catholics as non-Catholic or not remaining on the Ark given the unprecedented Crisis in the Church these days, it would help the overall productivity and tenor of the discussion.
