a. I understand what 'No' means...but frankly, all you said in the previous post is that ' I really shouldn't discuss non approved Apparitions' --- THAT statement isn't a concrete 'No I (you) wont' my Friend.
b. I didn't feel silly in our last debate whatsoever ; in fact, you supported many of my assertions that I backed up with the Catechism...only you fluffed it up to make it look palatable for consumption . So, I wouldn't pat yourself on the back so hard.
c. I don't read Jack Chicks Tracts for your info. If he has an Author who used to be a long time Catholic that wrote a book on the major formal Doctrines of the Catholic Church versus the Bible...and lists what each says for comparison to which I verified personally....then that is credible and admissible as far as im concerned. What the Author presented in his particular book on the subject, is in fact , true and in our last Debate you spent considerable time trying to justify the Catholic slant on these disputes and never flat out denied what I offered up . (How could you when I presented the most current Catechism passages, verbatim) .
d. Finally, since it is my Debate Proposal...I get to propose what subject matter to discuss ; and I want to also examine the non-approved Apparition teachings that so many Faithful Catholics believe and develop a true hope in ...as well as the Churches approved Apparitions . And I will distinguish between the two of course.
If you aren't up for the challenge, then pass on it but please stop belly-aching ; surely whining isn't endorsed by the Catholic Church, is it ?!
David you know absolutely nothing about Catholicism and you really think you do. How sad. You do not own the Catechism nor have read any of the official Church documents(such as Nicea, Trent, Vatican II) or any encyclicals by the Popes. And worst off when they are quoted to you in a debate to prove you wrong you just ignore them and listen to Jack Chicks friends book on Catholicism.
All you know is what Rick Jones tells you about Catholicism in his book called "Understanding Roman Catholicism" which is false. Wake up man, Rick Jones has not a clue. Now even most protestants know this stuff and know Mr. Jones is full of bologna. That is why in formal debate often times you make yourself look silly when saying things that are not true about the Church or making false accusations based on what Rick Jones book tells you. Even many protestants know what Mr. Jones says if false on many levels because they have been dialoging with Catholics and reading actual Catholic documents for over 40 years now. You cannot hide that!!!!
When you are ready to really study the actual documents and not just quote books from "Rick Jones" and when you want to debate real authentic Catholicism(which encompasses both east and west) and real "infallible" dogma's that all Catholics must hold to and believe are true without error such as Mary's Sinlessness, Her bodily Assumption into heaven, Her perpetual virginity and Her role as Mother of God then let me know I will be happy to engage you using alot of sacred scripture, logic, history, miracles , and even negative evidence in those things.
But I am sure instead of reading actual Catholic documents and studying the early Catholic Church you will just continue your ignorance based on Rick Jones(Jack Chicks good buddy) quote book of Catholicism. Its a darn shame. At least most other knowledgable protestants I debate have read the actual documents of the Catholic faith ie primary sources and disagree so they know what we teach and know what they really disagree with us on. You have no clue because all you know is what Rick Jones tells you.
So find someone else to perpetuate your debate of the caricature of Catholicism with. What a waste of time.
Better yet Why don't we just take Rick Jones Book and debate that and I will show how one sided and deceiving it is. I will show you how he only gives you a few verses of the CCC and bible and forgets to look at the rest of the bible and CCC in context. He is a deceiver! I can prove that.
I tell you what if you can get your hero Rick to do it then I will debate Rock Jones in front of the largest crowd of protestants there is face to face and prove this beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is a huge deceiver and only quotes parts of the bible and Catholic teachings while leaving the rest out to give false impressions and fool others into his lies. I am not afraid of this mans lying Heart. The Holy Spirit will judge him on his lies and he know this. I am not afraid to stand up to that man who has perpetuated more lies then many about Christ church.
You should also note that all of them are private revelation which is different from public revelation and not bound on any Catholic to beleive. I hope you make this clear or you would be being dishonest about the apparitions and what the Church teaches about them and I know you do not want to do that do you?
