do we really need 100 catholic threads started by you? Are you desperate for attention? Stop it already.






Jesus Christ is God in the flesh. If you deny that basic truth, you cannot be saved. God came to save you, you cannot be saved if you do not believe in Him as He is.

Choleric, do you possess some sort of actual authority here on TOL that we should all know about...?

Think of it this way...the authority on TOL is much like the authority in the RCC... it has written rules people are supposed to follow, but it is lax in enforcement because it will effect their bottom line.

Cruciform violates the TOL code of conduct in almost every post he makes, yet TOL never smacks him for it.... i wonder why.

TOL has rules against creating multiple threads on the same topic. Perhaps you should familiarize yourself with them. Then consult the pope to help you interpret them.

Catholicism trades in psychological sado-masochism.

Perhaps Cruciform enjoys the knock-down slappings he gets in all these right-wing Catholic threads he starts.

He doesn't really even put up a fight, so perhaps he is more a masochist than a sadist. The sadism part he leaves for the Vatican to inflict.

In any case, I'll let you point out to Choleric that I didn't start this thread, nor have I established an inordinate number of threads on this forum.

You assert, I generally supply evidence. That's the difference.

If you and Choleric don't happen to like them, I couldn't care less. Feel free not to post on any of my threads. We could certainly do without your bigoted hysterics and inane irrationality, after all.

Your diminishing of your own crimes by comparison with others reminds me of your immoral diminishing of the appalling crimes of your church's employees against children by comparison with rates of child rape in other situations.

But if you insist, we can compare. In the past 4 years, Choleric has started 35 threads, and in the past three years I've started 17. In two years, you've started 60. Serpentdove has started over 100 threads this year alone, but only eight of those are in the religion section; most are in politics, where you would expect there to be many different topics arising quickly. Choleric makes the point that many of your threads are virtually indistinguishable in their content, and it does look like you are flooding the forum with Vatican propaganda. For example, can you tell us why you need so many variations on Sola Scriptura?


THE PROBLEM WITH SOLA SCRIPTURA
THINKING TWICE ABOUT 'SOLA SCRIPTURA'
SOLA SCRIPTURA & HERMENEUTICAL ANARCHY
SOLA SCRIPTURA VS. MAGISTERIUM: WHAT DID JESUS TEACH?
TEN-STEP REFUTATION OF 'SOLA SCRIPTURA'
PROTESTANT CONCEPTS NOT FOUND IN SCRIPTURE


Your incompetence does suggest that you are a Vatican employee. Are you?

Your own authority is completely shot to pieces, by your own actions.

Your running scared is noted, apologist for child rape.

I figure God has let the Romanized Catholic Church to exist as an example to his flock that actually has the Holy Spirit... if you have his spirit of discernment, avoiding the RCC is a no-brainer.
