To wit . . .
PLEASE TELL ME
WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME
An RC thread criticizing
Kathryn Kuhlman was locked because dozens of Proddys sat on the abuse button about it?
or one about
Jim Baker; or Joel Olsteen or Benny Hinn or the Purpose Driven Life author?
WHEN?
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hasn’t ever happened. Proddys don’t behave that way.
We have thicker skins.
As ab “RC” I promise to say a Rosary for you.
But, my heart tells me that I wish I knew enough Latin to tell you (in Latin of course) to “Lighten up Francis”.
We’d have to travel a dozen galactic clusters over down that road to even rise to the gravel under the foundation of the edifice the RC’s hereon have erected of that ilk.
Y’all are galactic masters of what y’all falsely accuse Proddys of.
Incredible.
Could you please reflect, prayerfully reflect, on these words of Jesus Christ? (And the specific words that I have bolded within it? Thanks.
PS. This was today's Gospel -- a good one, no?
Jesus summoned the crowd again and said to them,
Hear me, all of you, and understand.
Nothing that enters one from outside can defile that person;
but the things that come out from within are what defile.
When he got home away from the crowd
his disciples questioned him about the parable.
He said to them,
Are even you likewise without understanding?
Do you not realize that everything
that goes into a person from outside cannot defile,
since it enters not the heart but the stomach
and passes out into the latrine?
(Thus he declared all foods clean.)
But what comes out of the man, that is what defiles him.
From within the man, from his heart,
come evil thoughts, unchastity, theft, murder,
adultery, greed, malice, deceit,
licentiousness, envy, blasphemy, arrogance, folly.
All these evils come from within and they defile.
Manipulation, intimidation, control.
INDEED. And based on falsehoods to begin with.
!!!!CONTROL!!!! phreaques gone wild.
It’s endemic to the INSTITUTION.
I think it’s all they know how to do.
No wonder there was an Inquisition. IT’s in their blood or DNA or something.
Maybe it’s in the ‘holy’ water . . . or their special wafers.
May God multiply donations 10 times over for every dollar withheld by RC’s.
I might be speaking out of turn here, but I doubt Quix would pay it much attention. Prayers are fine, but we proddys would rather you leave the rosary out of it.
Sounds like you are talking about the persistently special privileged RC’s.
My outrage would have been greatly muffled had I known you were around.
Sigh. The duplicity stuff sometimes really gets to me.
I’ll calm down.
Sorry.
When you stick a sharp stick in Proddys eyes,
you can expect a response from a lot of us, me included.
What leaves you convinced that you deserve special treatment and life-time free passes on that score?
All the Proddys I know have a greater attraction to clean fingers than stalking would allow.
I’ll withdraw.
My bad.
Sigh.
So, boatbums, where is the Sista brigade on these attacks?
Way I see it is there is a boxing match been going on for centuries between RC’s and proddy’s. Sometimes blood gets spilled. So naturally from time to time this boxing match is going to find its way on FR.
It all comes down to ‘heresy’. The RC’s yell HERETIC towards the proddy for daring to question the pope, the magisterium and the extra-biblical creeds and sacraments they hold dear.
The proddy in turn yells HERETIC towards the RC’s for violating Scripture, and teaching as Doctrine the traditions of Men which Christ Himself rebuked.
If you ask me its a battle between Scripture and tradition. Scripture will always come out on top. God’s Word will always, ALWAYS prevail so the RC’s have their panties in a wad. You see deep down they KNOW Scripture is the higher authority even though they can’t openly admit it, so the gnashing of teeth and anger and attempts to silence any forms of dissent. The proddy on the otherhand is secure in those same Scriptures and can afford to be humorous about the debates, even empoying satire and sarcasm every once in a while and thus usually has a thicker skin. JMO.
