You don’t need help from me; you’re doing a great job displaying your temper.

***

See? This is what I mean about losing your temper.

You can’t even handle it when I say you’re in schism with Francis. You can’t even handle reading Luther for 20 minutes.

Twenty.

Minutes.

You could have felt smug all night and you couldn’t even think clearly enough to sacrifice TWENTY. MINUTES.

All you can do is throw around petty, childish insults.

You’re never gonna get rid of ‘Bergoglio’ like this. If you go and do the whiny ‘I know you are but what am I’ to your bishop like you just did, you’re gonna get your butt thrown out the door before even two minutes pass.

Baptists don’t “do” sacraments / eucharist, so we wouldn’t have covered those topics.

I have better things to do with 20 minutes, like praying a rosary.

Bogus. At least the Hail Mary part, which is substantial.

DID you pray a rosary?

I doubt it, because you were busy insulting me.

Again, twenty minutes. You could have spent twenty minutes doing even the smallest bit of research. You could have debated with intelligence and knowledge. You may have even made me think about my own views.

Instead you went on a bizarre tangent about fecal matter and convinced me in doing so that you never read Luther at all.

Do you REALLY think that kind of attitude is going to convince anyone? Do you really think that kind of attitude will remove a Pope you don’t like?

I think they are termed “ordinances” in Baptist theology.

Here’s what I find that may apply to Baptists, from my previous link:

Reformed theology has traditionally taught that Jesus’ body is seated in heaven at the right hand of God; therefore his body is not physically present in the elements, nor do the elements turn into his body in a physical or any objective sense. However, Reformed theology has also historically taught that when the Holy Communion is received, not only the Spirit, but also the true body and blood of Jesus Christ (hence “real”) are received through the Spirit, but these are only received by those partakers who eat worthily (i.e., repentantly) with faith. The Holy Spirit unites the Christian with Jesus though they are separated by a great distance. See, e.g., Westminster Confession of Faith, ch. 29; Belgic Confession, Article 35.

The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith, in which Reformed Baptists believe, affirms the Lord’s Supper to be a means of “spiritual nourishment and growth”, stating:

The supper of the Lord Jesus was instituted by him the same night wherein he was betrayed, to be observed in his churches, unto the end of the world, for the perpetual remembrance, and showing to all the world the sacrifice of himself in his death, confirmation of the faith of believers in all the benefits thereof, their spiritual nourishment, and growth in him, their further engagement in, and to all duties which they owe to him; and to be a bond and pledge of their communion with him, and with each other.

So, you’re admitting that you intentionally avoid doing research before making your arguments?

Oh, I’m going to have so much fun with this little bit of information now~

Did you happen to read his claim last night? No more "Luther" posts from him, he said.


The anniversray of his revolt ends tonight. No need to worry about any Luther posts from me tomorrow. I have better things to do, like celebrating All Saints’ Day.


Maybe it was only a one-day promise?

Probably. We have just two ordinances: Believer’s Baptism (by immersion), and Lord’s Supper (Communion).

It’s not an echo chamber if you can hear it.

What???? You can't hear echoes? See your Dr.

It is an echo chamber when you only preach to the choir. Sack up, call the Pope to repentance, the Church to reform.

And so leaving in protest isn’t allowed.

I'm not even suggesting going that far. Stand, call out church authority for heresy or whatever it is when Catholic teaching evolve. Call out the Pope! They don't have to worry about the secular sword and a spiritual sword wielded by a heretic is no threat either. Instead of complaining about Luther being proclaimed a heretic by a Pope less worse than this one. Instead, complain loudly on a site the Pope will never see or hear about.

Do you consider yourself to be a member of my choir?

Or maybe you lack reading compreheision. Luther wasn't mentioned in the article.

Maybe you lack comprehension in general.

Or do you not see how deliberately refusing to research before spouting off makes you look like an idiot and a source of amusement?

I consider myself part of the choir that thinks this Pope is a dope.
