Being told that as a Catholic you are not a Christian - well, let me put it this way, to respond in kind would compound the offence to this forum that you represent by having the gall to say that to a Catholic's face.One thing that is becoming clear, you are quick to assume and jump to conclusions. It makes it difficult to have a conversation with you.
So, you are correct in deeming our interaction futile. Doesn't mean I hate you, but it doesn't mean I'm prepared to pander to your high eccentric theology, either - which I take to be of the kind generally known as 'fundamentalist'. It is clear that you have not considered the implication of the phrase, 'cleansed as if by fire', so it seems you have no rational hinterland, but get stuck in the shallowest groove each phrase signifies.
Incidentally, it infuriates me that so many fellow-Catholics insist on identifying themselves as Catholics, before Christians, when the context clearly indicates that reference to the latter is indicated, rather than the former. Over the centuries attitudes have hardened among the un(self-)critical die-hard types on both sides, who each consider the other heathen.
