Hi all, I'm new to these forums-I've spent a lot of time (too much, my wife tells me) over at Catholic Answers' forums and, in any event, I have a question for you.

You guys or gals ever stray into the Christian Theology forums? I'm sure some of you have but I was amazed at the huge differences in theology that's debated there. I mean, we have some differences of beliefs within Catholicism-most of them probably having to do with personal reticence to go along with Church teaching on some particular matter or another- but nothing like the differences I run into over there that generally stem from varying interpretations of scripture. Some pretty bizarre beliefs from some very zealous folk in some cases.

It's kind of fun-but not always-and definitely challenging to sort of reverse the roles from those at CA where Catholics are the majority and instead become the minority odd man out for a change. Care to share any thoughts/experiences?

Some of the beliefs on the other side are the most novel types of Christianity I have read.

I tend to avoid it when I'm busy and don't have hours upon hours to waste my breathe debating with the opposition's blowhards—I use that term in the most amiable way, as I am one myself.
