You seem to have missed the point entirely.
It's the hypocrisy of posting stick in the eye threads for the purpose of non-Catholic bashing and the hypocrisy of Catholics running whining to the mods whenever they see a thread they even think is Catholic bashing simply because they don't like the way they think it represents Catholicism.
The *Do as I say, not as I do* double standard mentality which seems to commonly infest FRoman Catholics is the problem, not what Msgr Pope wrote.

So it bothers/offends you that some Catholics actually believe they are part of Christ’s true Church and dare suggest it to non-Catholics. If you didn’t believe you belonged to His true Church how long would you stay in it? Last I checked no one on this thread has claimed that non-Catholics faith is guided by satan himself. Give me a break. I am sorry if you are injured by my beliefs but if we are trying to save each other’s souls I am only asking for some christian charity among His brothers and sisters.
I apologize that looked right past the Catholic / Non-Catholic issue because this simple point pales in comparison with all of the petty bickering.
Do you believe God is just?
Do you believe He can look into our hearts?
Do you believe He will judge us according to His will?
Do you believe there will be eternal consequences according to how He judges us?
No stick in anyone’s eye, a beam perhaps but not a stick. I’ll work on the beam in my eye if you can take care of your sliver... deal?
