Happy Easter!

Quote: FrGamble

Isn't guilt a natural and healthy feeling when we do something we know is wrong? You make it sound like the Church invented it. ?

It's a fact the Church institutionalized guilt.
They turned it into a highly profitable
business. You're a guilt salesman for the
Church. Your job is to constantly remind
parish members what they're supposed
to feel guilty about. If you don't realize
that, you really are in a serious state
of denial.

You and your silly non-facts. You know saying it is a fact doesn't make it so.

My job is exactly the opposite of what you are saying. I spend all my time constantly reminding everyone, inside and out of the Church, that they are loved by God and that they should let go of their feelings of guilt and shame, accept the forgiveness of Jesus Christ, and live a happy and fulfilled life being the best person they can be.

My job is exactly the opposite of what you are saying. .

Everything I write is the opposite of what
the truth is, according to you. Of course
that's mathematically impossible. I should
be right at least half the time, and I'm
never right. That means in my research
I've beaten chance by 100%, which is
not possible, or somebody has been spoon
feeding you some very bad info.

Since you're the spokesperson for a cult,
my guess would be you're the one with faulty
info, not me.

You are right that one of us has been spoon fed some very bad info.

Not me. My info comes from all kinds of sources,
most of yours comes from what's approved by the
Church.

It is a false assumption that you should be right half of the time.

I should be right more than half the
time, I was being easy on him. The
places I get info from are reliable,
FrG acts like I heard it over the back
fence. The Church has a thing for
rewriting their terrible history, no
matter how long it takes.

How are you determining how often you should be right?

How are you determining how often you should be right?

From the quality of the reliable sources I look
at. FrG acts like I get all my info from Bill and
Bobs Secret Universe.

Bob I don't think I have ever seen you quote a source.

Also are you trying to say that your sources should be right more often about what the Catholic Church teaches or about what they or you think or would like to think the Catholic Church teaches? If you are just giving your opinion about what you think of the Church then I imagine you are correct 100% of the time, after all they are your own thoughts. You would have to deal with me challenging your opinions, but I couldn't very well tell you that you are not thinking whatever crazy thing you are thinking.

However, if you want to claim that the Church teaches this or says that or believes this then you are dealing with something different than your opinions. Here I can, and often do, show you from the Church herself that you are wrong. You can still ignore it, and you often do, but I hope you see that your sources wherever they may come from cannot know what the Church teaches better than the Church herself. As the old saying goes, "you can't be more Catholic than the Pope."
