Oh, in the Baptist forum. I thought it was the one in GT, which I participated in.
There is too much of a disconnect. Baptists (or those of quite a few other denominations) are not likely to even understand what we mean.
I was Baptist for a long time, and I DO understand their position. But they've been taught only a part, and ... Well, besides not even speaking the same "language" as it were, they don't have the same understanding of theology.
I greatly admire their dedication to Scripture, and their desire to find and hold to Truth. Unfortunately, quite a bit of what is taught in some Baptist circles is a reaction against certain Catholic teachings (which we would disagree with as well) and which the Catholics themselves have backed away from and become more moderate in some cases, from what I understand.
But the line "Theotokos, save us" which can be a shortened version of "By the prayers/intercessions of the Theotokos, Savior save us!" Is completely misunderstood.
I'm sure they don't want us teaching in their forum. And I'm not sure in which forums open discussion would be allowed. I'm not sure I'd be willing to just ask what they think. If we are not allowed to clarify, I can see it might lead only to more misunderstanding.
I would appreciate open dialogue though. Perhaps that can happen in the new
Traditional Theology forum. That's what we're hoping for.
