To: Iscool; marshmallow
Of course I meant in our teaching, in my remark about baptism.

as for the rest, it's typical Protestant dodging and weaving. For such arguers the mere fact of the attack (whatever the content) is victory, and a reply (again, whatever the content) is evidence of defeat. And a vigorous defense to a vicious unreasoning attack is evidence of an even more severe defeat.

Yo! marshmallow! did you goof, as I said, or did I, or what? Iscool here thinks that if we contradict each other on a minor matter that is proof that snake-handlers in West Virginia are right about us. That's what passes for thought in some circles.

It was not an attack...It was not vicious and it was not unreasonable...

And I was not trying to defeat anyone...You defeated yourself by trying to defend yourself...

You are taking this far more seriously than I am...
