just realists based on the churches history for a couple of decades.

And that refers to ?

Pardon me if I jumped to a conclusion
OTHER than the most prominent headlines
for the last decades that involve the
Church, that were also inferred in the
posts about yours.

shame on you for not showing Christs love to others you know nothing about...

False piety. God knows well my heart.

I have no hate for you .. I don’t know
you. Terrible incorrect assumption there.

Very sorry you had a bad experience and,
as you describe it, felt “forced” to leave
the entire Church.

Hi Starwise You had brought up the priest problem of the last decade, and when I talked about church history I was NOT thinking about what you accused me of. That is probably what you thought of. Those problems of recent things, history goes back 2000 years.(even prior to when you were born) So your accusation remains untruthful and you should not try reading other peoples minds..

This is the rest of your post.

My response**** God does know your heart, He also knows mine. YOU DON'T Laughing at your use of the word "forced" to leave the church, I left it, I was not forced out..

Why do Catholics think that leaving the church is the same as turning your back on Christ? Gee whiz, its like if your not catholic you cannot love Jesus and live your life according to scripture...Hypocrisy of those Catholics that think they are the only one's that Jesus loves, and all must act according to Catholic dogma if one is to be true to Jesus..If someone opens their mouth to voice their opinion, and its not a catholic dogma, they get jumped on by some catholics on FR as a gang.

Defending the Faith is Catholic, but you shouldn't have to be defensive to others that love Christ...As I told my son, You have brother and sisters in Christ in all demoninations. Your Catholic hostility may be directed at such souls...I am always amazed at the way some Catholic's talk to other (read outside the church) Christians...
