Justified Saint Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Nicely put L_D -- very eloquent! However, to those who need to hear it the most, I fear it falls on deaf ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mateo el Feo Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 [quote name='Laudate_Dominum' post='1061547' date='Sep 12 2006, 05:55 PM']Sadly I don't think anyone here has to paint either of you as 'haters', you do a pretty good job on your own.[/quote]Good point. I think most of us would be happy to see emotional attacks go away one their own (without any fanfare), so that we can actually maintain a friendly dialogue with non-Catholics.

Eutychus Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 [quote] However, in the mind of the fundamentalist everything that is different from their point of view is meshed all into one huge diabolical mess.[/quote] PS: don't tell anyone, I'm NOT a FUNDAMENTALIST. I'm a Pentecostal! Everyone detests Pentecostals, the Pope who call us a "sect" and the Fundies who claim we bark like dogs and roll around on the floor. Real Fundies, detest pentecostals almost as much as plaster venerators! { For what is worth, we banned barking when they passed the dog control ordinances in my town, and our floor is too darned hard for decent rolling around on! } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melporcristo Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I know the first pic isn't mormon because the Mormon Temple's have the gold statue at the top of a steeple with a trumpet in their hand. Just thought you should know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detest- to feel abhorrence of; hate; dislike intensely. [quote] * 3:- Accusation of hate Technique Always Insist that your opponent is full of hate. It is always advisable to paint your opponent as hateful. This technique should always contain a reference, to your extreme caringness and the limitless bounds of your great humility.[/quote] Edited September 12, 2006 by CatholicCid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anomaly Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 [quote name='Revprodeji' post='1061445' date='Sep 12 2006, 03:15 PM'] Why do fundis hate so much? No offense Budge. I have never spoke to you ma'am, but I am in often dialogue with a former prof at trinity (Dr. Jefferson) and I am just surprised at the amount of hurtful language. What exactly are they trying to prove? It is as if they are trying to justify something to themselves. [/quote] Hello! It's a symptom of elevating your chosen denomination to God status. Catholics are just as adept at it. EECNS. They are justifying worshiping their denomination. It must really smell of elderberries to be be dealing with Eut and Budge. It's the unflattering mirror, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winchester Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 That's not the eye of Horus. It's the eye of CBS. I'm not sure which is worse. Again with symbols having inherent meaning.

However we believe in good music, sound, and the best in Audio Visual and comfortable seats { seeing as how our services are generally a little short of two hours, they are appreciated. } And we see OUR churches as community FIRST, so we normally have a good library, a bang up gym, classrooms galore, bookstore, and the newest trend is an onsite coffee shop for socialization. { Understand that 30 minutes AFTER our service ends, you will find about 30% of the congregation STILL there, greeting, meeting, socializing and getting to know each other...unlike the Indy 500 atmosphere that prevails 30 SECONDS after Mass ends...} Edited September 13, 2006 by Eutychus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
