Hearsay, to which character assassination (on narrow subject matter not here discussed) and added false allegation is added.

Smells of desperation. And fear. Faber did not need be correct in all things, to be correct in many.

I'll grant that same leeway to Roman Catholicism in general, and individual adherents more generously.

As it stands now, the description & use of "anti-catholic" simply remains much as Faber described it more fully, over the course of many pages.

It is great conceit for the Latin Patriarch of the Western Church to ascribe most chiefly & solely to themselves and their dogmas (not agreed to by many other "catholics" of long standing) the term CATHOLIC particularly when such was first used in history in the small case (letter "c"), and the word meant basically "universal", but over years was appropriated to refer not to the greater, universal church, but to refer chiefly to themselves --- describing all else to be "lacking fullness of the truth".

One may themselves subscribe to such as matter of choice, but to proclaim it "true" we continually see it be an argument of assertion, and quite vehement assertion, but failing here and there to establish in actual fact, when we look to those evidences that may be found from the primitive church of the first few centuries, and the Word.

Desperation? Character assassination?

Me thinks thou dost protest too much.
