  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What the hell is a Roman church anyway? I'm a Catholic

When I speak to the EOC or OOC I can understand the use of Roman Catholic Church since they see the Pope as one of the Patriarchs and all RCC under that Patriarch. But when Protestants use it there is a sense of ignorance or hate in it, not all the time but sometimes. I think it is because of the history of Protestantism where they sought from the beginning to harm people of the Catholic Church and declare Rome had no power over them. Kind of sad really, that people are still so bigotted today.

What you're experiencing is RC paranoia.
Catholic hatred & ignorance of Protestantism sometimes but not all the times makes anything Protestant repulsive. I think it is because of the history of Catholicism where they sought from the beginning to harm people who protested the power mongering & Gospel twisting in the Vatican. Worse yet is that people are still so bigotted today.

It is sad huh? :sorry:
Yepperz.

Matthew 24:3 He is yet sitting on the mount of the Olives, the disciples toward-came to Him according to own, saying, "Tell us, when shall these be? and what the Sign/shmeion <4592> of the Thy ParousiaV <3952>, and of the together-finish/sun-teleiaV <4930> of the Age"?

Reve 15:1 And I perceived another Sign/shmeion <4592> in the heaven, great and marvelous. Messengers, seven, having stripes/blows, seven, the last; that in them is-finished/etelesqh <5055> (5681) the fury of the God/YHWH.

I do not think it is paranoia. It is the reality of things is all. I can accept it.

When you have people like Dave Hunt out there you are going to see hate and bigotry. And if you listen to people like Scott Hahn who converted to Catholicism you will hear stories about preachers and teachers that will teach in error simply to make people believe the Catholic Church is worng. That means they are lying to you in case someone here did not get it (Rick I know you caught that).

So the hate and bigotry are real and not paranoia. I personally can vouch for it too from before I became and understood Catholocism.

Blame what? Why the open ended questions all the time? If you are digging for something then please just ask. :)

But I will assume to know how to answer...

Dave Hunt is full of hate and bigotry for Catholicism and that is my take on it. Because he wrote a book and people listen to his teachings then I think many will be hateful and bigotted like Dave Hunt is. Does that answer your question or maybe you were simply seeing how I would respond?

Yeah, I can vouch for the Paranoid about Protestants phenomena from my 18yrs in the RC. It was at a zenith when John Kennedy ran for President. You think his win would've eased the paranoia some, but with all the RC arrogance fueling backlash, the reality is that it will ever be thus. I can accept it.
I have to laugh when I remember what they tried to teach me about The Reformation.

Dave Hunt is a harmless clown except for his embrace of RC soteriology.

MamaZ is exactly right. The Martyr complex is only one side of the coin. A guilt complex is on the other. They are both part & parcel of an immature narcisism that fuels delusions of grandeur.

Kinda like J. Hagee

http://catholicknight.blogspot.com/2008/02/john-hagee-is-anti-catholic.html

John Hagee Is Anti-Catholic





ATTENTION: John Hagee has now apologized to Catholics, and the Catholic Church, for making these anti-Catholic accusations, and has recanted them entirely...
