I see that after the last post to which I responded. I can take the bashing, even on this thread, in which I have to defend the faith.
But why do people just go on bashing?
To give us an opportunity to pray for patience and charity in defending our faith. That would be my better self answering. The not so better self believes it is because they are ignorant jerks.
You mean you can make the bare assertion that "No practicing Catholic would ever bash another religion" which sets up you as the judge of who is a practicing Catholic, and if anyone disagrees then they are bashing you?
And the fact is that your judgment excludes past popes and conciliar teaching which damned those not in submission to popes (or at the least they are not in any communities worthy to properly be called churches) or its excludes such as being bashing.
