Every good Christian ought to be more ready to give a favorable inerpretation to another's statement than to condemn it. But if he cannot do so, let him ask how the other understands it. And if the latter understands it badly, let the former correct him with love. If that does not suffice, let the Christian try all suitable ways to bring the other to a correct interpretation so that he may be saved

It isn't working, Narses. Folks are catching on to ya. Name a SINGLE post you have produced that gives the Pope the benefit of the doubt in any controversy. I have asked you this repeatedly - along with other pertinent questions - and you refuse to answer.

You can't successfully play the victim card now that I have trumped you with the historical record of your own actions.

BTW, thanks a lot for making me do all that work instead of you owning-up to who you are and what your agenda is. But, it is there for ALL to see. You began your (current) Freeper career by launching an attack on the Pope. Explain how that fits in with what you just cited to me?

Your double standard, where I must treat you with deference, respect and courtesy while you are free to attack the Magisterium and Pope with unopposed alacrity is evident to all who can read the English language.

I know you think you are gaining sympathy with this pleading but each time just gives me the opportunity to illustrate your hypocrisy. That you can't cite a SINGLE post of yours to illustrate you accord the Pope the same courtesy you demand a fellow layman extend to you only underlines the hypocrisy.

Too funny, you "examine" my posts selectively, try, condemn and sentence me and THEN want me to "prove" you wrong. You are confused and you are lacking in both judgment and charity. Given that, I don't pay attention to your clumsy and antagonistic attempts at fraternal correction.

You also fail to answer my questions and ignore my wants but I will try one more time.

Stipulating for the sake of this discussion, and in fact denying this otherwise, let us say I have an anti-Catholic agenda here. I don't, but to examine this, let us say I do. Who put you in charge of rooting that agenda out and attacking me? What canon of Church Law or rule of the Catechism gives you that prerogative? Carry you a crozier that I should kiss your ring? What special dispensation from the rule against personal attacks here have you? Try hard, answer my questions with honesty and charity.
