Thanks, will look at this later.

No Christians would be in a futz over this if they knew their Baltimore Catechism, or their Westminster Catechism.

Won’t make a bit of difference to the bigots on FR. I think I’ve had enough of FR myself.

Well, try not to be too frustrated and/or discouraged. You're a valuable contributor on here.

You can let people bother you, or not. I have a lot of FRiends, of all different sorts, and we all manage not to get upset at one another.

On the other hand, you might get out of the house occasionally and not care so much :-).

So, as we already knew ... the bishop was offering some thoughts on applying timeless moral principles to the particular situation of the XXI Century ...

The MSM, as usual, is full of rubbish.

About those who believe the MSM uncritically, the less said the better.

“Grant Establish and Ordaine that for ever hereafter there shall be a liberty of Conscience allowed in the Worshipp of God to all Christians (Except Papists)”

Do you think they disallowed “papists” because, historically speaking, Catholic countries have not allowed other Christian groups the same liberty of conscious in worship?

“BTW, you know the Puritans came over here because they were being persecuted by the Church of England, when it wasn’t busy persecuting the Catholics?”

You make a good point. Perhaps the English were fearful of seeing a replay of the St. Bartholomew's day massacre in their own land.

However, your point failed to address the issue that, historically, Catholic countries have not allowed other Christian groups the same liberty of conscious in worship.

Thanks for your kind words and I will take your advice.

Most on FR are reasonable in their disagreement. Some are rather interesting and I view them with some fascination much as I would in a clinical setting attempting to find the person behind the words.

Very INTERESTING

INDEED.

LOL.

~But! Other remarks are the mindless jibbering of ignorance and a few posts are just pure evil.

The overt evil, I think, one can fight. Willful ignorance, although another form of evil, is much harder to bear.
