To: YHAOS; verdadjusticia
If one does not formally subscribe to Catholic doctrine, then one is heretic, schismatic, pagan, and ‘outside’ the Church, according to the Catholic point of view.

Well, actually I dispute that. I'm busily disputing it with verdadjusticia. I would say NOT that y'all are "outside" but that you're not all the way inside. I also would hesitate to classify all those thing especially "pagan" as having the same degree or kind of outsideness.

If Pelousy et al are Christians, they are very BAD Christians. They certainly are outside the "tradition" of thought which informed the Signers and Founders.

In other news:
I was looking for a fairly straight-forward reply. Perhaps that is not possible.

Well, I fear in my case it's an "improbable possible."
