It persistently boggles my mind how adept RC's are at imputing
"bashing."
I realize they are master bashers themselves . . . and I guess when one sees the world through such "bashing glasses" it is easy to fantasize and construe bashing under every word and phrase.
All the more so for those with REACTIVE ATTACHMENT DISORDER.
However, in Jedidah's post above, he rightly merely noted that it's more fitting to worship CHRIST than to get all wound up about artifacts.
!!!OF COURSE!!!, that's anathema, heresy and outrageous to those over fascinated with, obsessed with, addicted to, to idolatrous of artifacts.
Sheesh! Get a life.
Or a RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST vs a mere RELIGION.
Amazing.
I get up this morning to find that my heartfelt comment lat night about remembering the central point of Christianity was completely misconstrued.
I didn’t say a thing about Catholics. I didn’t even think about Catholics. Nobody was “bashed” until some thin skins got irritated by their imaginations.
My point was a valid one, and I stand by it. I’ll go out on a limb and contend that anyone who argues with what I said needs to examine their heart and their faith. And by “faith,” I don’t mean the name on the sign at their church building.
