Me too!
Well Professor, in the Museum of Really Bad Christian Apologetics, your post #54 will have a display case near the front door.
I thought the “No Offense Intended” post was pretty clear.
I didn’t write post #54.
Thanks for pointing that out . . . I forgot that whole aspect of Thomas’ early life.
Well, now that creates a pickle. Was I trying to insult LibLieSlayer, or did I mean post #57?
What didn’t you like about post #57? Except for staring at myself in the mirror, rereading that post is my favorite pastime! LOL! Sarc/
And how is this the business of Dan Gilgoff & US News?!

Re: Gary Cooper’s conversion.
Here’s a nice little remembrance by his daughter, Maria:
In the mid to late fifties, my father’s conversion to Catholicism started silently. He never discussed much about it but simply started joining us for Mass more often. The ostensible reason was to hear the good sermons given by a dynamic young priest, Father Harold Ford, dubbed by my father as “Father Tough Stuff.” Father Ford didn’t give hellfire and brimstone, but he was a very human and with-it man. My mother invited him over for a drink one afternoon, thinking there might be some deep and profound conversations about matters of the spirit. Think again! He and my father disappeared into the gun room and as far as I can tell all they talked about was hunting, fishing, and scuba diving. Father Ford became a scuba buddy and joined us diving in the large marineland of the Pacific tank where we all cavorted with its inhabitants.

Dan Gilgoff covers religion for U.S. News & World Report.
I think we can all safely acknowledge that only Missouri Synod Lutherans (early service, red hymnal liturgy) have a guaranteed ticket to Heaven.
I hope for their sake that you are correct.
Our Lord works in strange ways. Dominus vobiscum.
Well, you did.
Are you able to document what you asserted in the post I was addressing?
Did you not see and hear Newt's Goblal Warming ad with his good friend Nancy?
Nancy Pelosi and Newt Gingrich Commercial on Climate Change
Newt's been inside the Beltway way too long!
Is there a general roster of point values I missed somewhere in my KJV?
What were you asserting?
Though divorced in a civilian court, one is still married in the Church. If one remarries in a civilian ceremony, one is committing adultery in the eyes of the Church. One may live that way, but not take Communion as one would be living in a state of sin. But one would not automatically be excommunicated.
