Yet....y'all continue to do so then complain when your doctrines are disputed. Why is that? If you don't want such interaction, then don't post the provocative threads! And, quite honestly, I have no problem defending my beliefs even to the same people over and over because I truly think the Holy Spirit is able to break through even the deepest entrenched deception for those who are diligently seeking to know the truth. I don't see it as a waste of time at all.

I couldn't care less whether you "dispute" Catholic doctrines. I know "y'all" are wrong, so I don't bother with "y'all". I was merely telling others to stop bothering with "y'all". I have yet to see someone deeply entrenched on either side switch to the opposite side.

If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet.

I've received several private emails from people who've either not joined Catholicism or were on the fence and not sure of the issues because of these threads.

As I told one rcc I post for those who aren't sure or who've never examined the difference between Christianity and Roman Catholicism.

Titus 2:1-3
You, however, must teach what is appropriate to sound doctrine.
Teach the older men to be temperate, worthy of respect, self-controlled, and sound in faith, in love and in endurance.
Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good.

I have my suspicions whether or not you "couldn't care less". If that were true, you wouldn't continue to show up on these threads. Additionally, I don't think you need to tell others to "stop bothering" to speak up for their beliefs. For me, I only do so when I sense the Holy Spirit leading me to and that really isn't for you to approve or disapprove, know what I mean? It is up to Him, after all, as God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Martin Luther was a Catholic priest and the truth of the gospel broke through to change his heart, so that's one of many who DID "switch".
