Post #8 was in reference to the original post about civil unions, but don't let the facts get in the way of a good old fashion rant. This is the part where a christian would apologize for their error... I am not holding my breath.

I have come to the conclusion that no matter what a catholic does the protestants will find something negative to say. If the pope was seen walking on water the FR headline would read "Pope can't swim."

Your projection is noted.

I was responding to the comment about distrusting the pope.

I realize what the topic of the thread was about, but a man who cannot be trusted to not rob the dead, cannot be trusted at all.

Otherwise, the pope has been put on the level of politicians where people claim that what he does in his private life has no bearing on his ability to hold office.

That is simply not true. People’s morality is not compartmentalized like that. A man who cannot be trusted in private, cannot be trusted in public.

And he has already demonstrated that his ability to make sound judgment is basically non-existent.

Your lack of Christian charity and humility is what is really noted. Good thing I didn’t hold my breath.

Jesus called the Pharisees, the legalistic religious leaders of His day, a brood of vipers, hypocrites, and white washed tombs.

Would you also accuse Him of lack of *Christian charity* for speaking the truth?

Did you or did you not make a false accusation to me? Would a true Christian have apologized for their error?

The answer to both questions is yes.

Anyone that does not demonstrate Christian charity or humility is not a Christian.

Feel free to have the last comment.

Every year at lent and advent the secular media tries to find ways to stir the pot and get Catholics and other Christians all jacked up over nothing.

Every year, at least one FRoman Catholic comes out and demands that the Religion Forum censor the news during Lent. Is that going to be you, this year?

If this Pope is seen walking on water give me a call.

But in the mean time there is a huge difference between walking on water and being a thief.

So are you saying stealing from the dead and calling that sin honoring them is a Roman Catholic tradition?

Metmon is not the leader of a large faith group. Frank is. Frank stole from a dead man’s hands. That is the issue here.

First off it is Francis as a minimum and his proper Title is Pope Francis.

That is the issue here.

No the issue is metmonm's false accusation against me, her complete lack of Christian humility and charity.

This has been a pattern with this poster and with her sycophant supporters. She is caught in an error refuses to admit it, changes the subject, and you all rush to her defense.

I've read that Ted Kennedy could actually drive across water.

In distrusting the pope, you demonstrate a distrust for Christ's promise.

Or a recognition that the church and the Pope are two different things.

No I don't, but we know what they call people that can't prove what they claim.
