For gosh sakes! He didn't call her a "heretic!!!" I have no idea how one can read that into this statement: "Your position is known as the Donatist heresy."
My gosh, he was letting her know that this problem had been dealt with centuries ago, that's all. Time to hit "google" and do some research, like most of us have to do (well, me, anyway) and ask for help in understanding from the Holy Spirit.
Let's quit this subject and shake hands and hope GSG comes back. This is so stupid and such a waste of time!
I hope to God no lurkers who are on a spiritual search come across this thread. Horrible language, horrible attitudes and less than brotherly love is what they will find.
Let's quit this subject and shake hands and hope GSG comes back.Why not ask her to come back and hope that some of these heretic smiters do the same?
Good night to you too, Colleen

And it all started with watered down religious training. I discovered how poorly my own was (after 12 years of a supposed top shelf Catholic education) when I read the Catechism cover to cover...why don't the dioceses use that for high school? Why don't they insist on parents using it in Baptismal preparation? ( And don't get me started on subsidiarity and how that's not used!)
