“Please provide the source for this.

Religion Mod, Salvation is mad at me because my quotes from the “Fathers” are devastating. Those quotes are already sourced and are widely available all over the internet (It’s from Augustine, Theodoret and a Pope). There’s no one particular link where they came from, or even just a few links. They’re from the primary sources, translated to English. (All he has to do is look up the citation to read the original text, or just google the words directly, and he can pick a dozen or so places to read them from).

Reading minds too?

And “devastating”? Not even, nor is it accurate to say:

“Those quotes are already sourced and are widely available all over the internet (It’s from Augustine, Theodoret and a Pope)”

As there are opinions of authors caught up in your Cut-n-Paste.

As for your claim:

“There’s no one particular link where they came from, or even just a few links.” - And how did you concatenate them all so neatly and repeat them in thread after thread? What site are you using to get these authors opinions about ancient sorces?

If the quotes are so widely available, then it should be no problem to find a source for them. Don't put the burden on the reader or the moderators.

The moderators use source information to check for copyright restrictions.
