You send me to 'catholic answers! So you as an individual Catholic cannot answer and you trust the very ORG which has programmed you to have scripture straight? Sorry, that is lacking.

It's a logical fallacy in arguments and debates to attack the source without responding to what they say. That is a polemical tactic that only works on those that allowed themselves to be bullied.

I provided an answer to your question, and you answer with belligerence. If you are trying to win someone to Christ that way, good luck.

I'm open to charitable and reasonable discussion, but I don't have time for hostile people. Good night and God bless you.

So you do not have an answer you just rely on the ORG to do your answering and one would presume your thinking, too.

If you sense 'belligerance' it is not toward you, it would be toward the heresies inherent in catholiciism. You are their victim.

The Catholic assertions over baptism are directly related to Magic Thinking in the which a sacramental ritual gives the power to the ORH's priest to convey that which ONLY God can convey because it is a spiritual reality not a carnal one.

There are many rituals in catholiciism that utilize this Magic Thinking, like the notion that eating bread and drinking wine, if the sacramental utterances by the priest have been made can ingest the body, blood, soul, and divinity of Jesus -God with us- into the person eating the bread and drinking the wine. That is a pagan practice of magic thinking now incorporated into the catholic dogma conflating the spiritual with the carnal, generating a mockery of something GOD commanded for all their generations not to do regarding blood.
