You should be more careful with your reading. My word, all, was defined by the identity of those which followed it. "You all here are violent in your words toward Catholics and others who don't see God your way "
When you're not one of those who are all violent with their hate toward Catholics, then it is clear you're not the one I'm talking to.Even the title of this discussion invites conflict with the question.
Then you get people who claim that hate is of God because God hates. That's some nerve I gotta say. Thinking to make ones self equal to God by hating all the same people he does? That's like a bad punch line or a bumper sticker.
You don't like conflict so you avoid that other forum but here you are interjecting conflict because you didn't read what I said correctly.

I read exactly what you said. My mother is a language nerd and I had syntax and grammar drilled very thoroughly into my head.
Your sentence, as it appears in post #194, indicts every participant in this thread. I find that objectionable, as it includes me among the accused, and I have done nothing to warrant the accusation.
Be careful how you phrase your thoughts. The way you phrased that one, it accused everybody who posted in this thread. Whether you intended it that way or it was accidental, that is how you wrote it.

I'm done with this garbage. Your mom's acumen doesn't have a thing to do with me. I told you what I meant. Don't think you're going to school me because you CHOOSE to take offense. OH, and make this discussion what you said you dislike about the BDF forum.
I wasn't TALKING ABOUT OR TO YOU! How's that for clear. Grammar, syntax! Jesus wept, this is pathetic!

Okay, I'll 'fess up.
I found this whole thread ludicrous. So when you made broad-brush assertions twice, I had to pick at you for it. It's my way of ridiculing the thread in general and all the vituperation you in particular have been spewing.
Honestly I don't really care what you called me, or even if you meant to include me in your allegations. I was just having some fun in an otherwise quite acrimonious thread.

As long as I/we have guns in America I/we won't be readily available for murder or torture from the RCC authority .. I have no boss except Jesus, no church or preacher is my Vicar of Christ .. I wouldn't torture any one anyway .. Have you seen some of the torture devices the RCC authority dreamed up and used on people ? Good grief , only a demonic influenced person or people could come up with that stuff .. I've stated elsewhere that imo many low level Roman Catholics are probably Christians and good folks ..
But you don't hate Catholics.
You need to find out and quick that there were more than one inquisition in history. And the Protestants were the one's torturing people. More than one inquisition.
And as for the guns thing. If you're armed up to fight against the advance of the evil empire of the RCC into your home, thinking they're going to take you away and kill you, you are one of those that they should never let have a gun. You're a nut. And thinking that about Catholics isn't anything but hate. And strong delusion.

You got to get a handle on your obsessive paranoia concerning all things Catholic. And your hatred for Lutherans and Calvinists too. Who else do you hate?
I'm none of those so your arrows aren't finding their purchase in me.
Furthermore, if you lived in America instead of pretending like you do, you'd realize that the second amendment has been infringed repeatedly. Gun registration, background checks, red flag laws.
Hey, are you trying to look like a lunatic Christian? It just occurred to me. Is that your game here? You're putting on this act so as to deliver a profile of that kind of religious zealot nut who owns guns? Then by allusion some may think any Christian has the potential to be like that.
I'm pro-gun. I'm not pro-gun nut. Those are the one's that gun laws try to sift out so they don't gain access to firearms so their lunacy has a trigger outlet.
If you're actually serious, you're one that if you really are an American should never be allowed to own a gun. You have way to much hate and paranoia, particularly toward the RCC people, so as to also have access to ammunition and a trigger. I'm serious. If you were my neighbor, I'd warn the rest of my neighbors. Particularly the Christians, Calvinists, and Lutherans. I'd even alert the churches.

I love potatoes. I miss them if I dont have them.
the potato famine was horrendous but it did bring the Irish to america and subsequently catholicism.
The French were also mainly catholic.
in switzerland there is a catholic protestant divide and the two dont really mix with each other.
I have two catholic high schools up the road from me. Only one of my intermediate friends went on to a catholic school even though she wasnt catholic. My intermediate teacher then went on and taught there, I didnt realise she was at the time but many catholics do wear a crucifix or make it obvious they are religious. I had a maths teacher too that went to teach at a catholic school, (even though I know hes a baptist) catholic schools are more strict on their students I suppose, but I have heard instances of extreme bullying.
one of my friends nephew went to a catholic school. He commited suicide, he didnt have a catholic burial though, which is quite different from a normal service I heard. sometimes catholics do come and attend my churrch but their idea of God is way different. They pray rosaries and to saints andmuch more mention of Mary, as well as have shrines etc. I am a bit weirded out by this. I dont question peoples devotion to their church they were raised in though.

one of the creeds mentions the catholic church and everyone tries to explainit as a universal church. I dont think it means roman catholic. But there was a split between eastern or greek orthodox and roman catholic (latin) in the early days of the church if you know anything about church history they call it the great schism.

Catholic in the bible pre-existed both the RCC and the Protestant schism.
Catholic in the bible sense as I recall isn't an institution of men. It is a spiritual union of the faithful. What became the Roman Catholic church, the Roman universal church, is what occurred through the seed of Constantine and beyond. That accord during the Nicene council that defined what it meant to believe in Jesus. And from there evolved into what it meant to be the Roman's Catholic that believed in Jesus.
A separate identity from what God meant and spoke of as pertained to ekklesia kath holos.
