“I challenge you to read God’s Word with the help of the Spirit.”

Been doing it for decades - that’s one of the reasons why I am not a Protestant.

“You challenge me to read what man says on the matter.”

No, I literally gave you this challenge: “I challenge you to talk to a former Protestant minister who is now a Catholic and ask him why he converted.”

Why would you resort to falsehoods? What I gave you as a challenge was very clear. Why would you resort to dishonesty?

“I pray God haunts you with the words “New Covenant” and leads you to what God says on the matter.”

I already researched the New Covenant in scripture. You keep giving me challenges I completed decades ago. Do you have the courage or ability to do the challenge I gave you or will you just continue to post falsehoods about it?

I accepted that challenge more than 30 years ago. That’s one of the reasons why I am not a Protestant. I challenge you to talk to a former Protestant minister who is now a Catholic and ask him why he converted.

“I am not the only one with those observations.”

That just means more people than you don’t know what they are talking about.

” The article agrees.”

Not really.

“...so I will either stay Lutheran or go Orthodox, and I’m waiting on His leading.”

If you’re thinking about Orthodoxy, then He’s not leading you to Lutheranism. You can have real sacraments and a real priesthood, or Lutheranism. If you’re waiting for a special sign - THIS POST IS IT - and I’m not even Orthodox.

“Satanists love the tradition too.”

No, they love to mimic and mock the Tradition - because they know who is who and who really matters.

“It has been my observation that people that convert to RC are attracted by symbolism and emotions.”

No. I’ve met and talked to hundreds and hundreds of converts to the Catholic faith. I personally was involved in helping dozens of people study the faith before becoming Catholics. None of them became Catholic because they had some sort of attraction to symbols or emotions.

“People that start really reading the Bible leave the RC.”

The exact opposite. I’ve met way too many former Protestant pastors with degrees in scripture who studied the Bible deeply and it led to their conversion to the Catholic faith.

It’s starting to happen in France too.

“It seems like the left and the muslims want to take us back to the middle ages.”

Leftists and Muslims want to take us back to the most profoundly Christian time in world history?

You seem to be projecting.

“You mean Roman Catholic, NOT the same thing.”

As opposed to whatever type of Catholic?

Perhaps his funniest.

Thank you!

“....so the guy hates Jews....”

And yet both victim and perp were Jewish.

Yet another money-making franchise will be destroyed by insufferable idiots.

His math is way off. There are only 200 million people in western Europe.

Yep. I think I even saw the movie: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107594/

In a way, I always felt sorry for Coyle. He was addicted to drugs. He ended up hanging himself when he was 40 years old.

“Anyone notice not a word from Pelosi? I really think she’s in a padded room wearing a straight jacket.”

The Feds announced yesterday or day before that they are selling the federal building named after Pelosi. https://abc7.com/post/donald-trump-looking-sell-nancy-pelosi-federal-building-50-united-nations-plaza-san-francisco-ca-bruno/15941677/

“And were gone from Israel for generations.”

The evidence that there were always some Jews in Israel is overwhelming: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_and_Judaism_in_the_Land_of_Israel
