The second you get personal, you lose a debate.

He didn't say you're an idiot. He said you were ACTING like one. All the difference in the world. That's why Christians can judge actions, but never people.

There is a difference in the degree of the transgressions and the public nature of them as well. - 05/09/2010 02:30:06 AM 947 Views

She chose to work for a Catholic institution. - 05/09/2010 05:54:23 PM 856 Views
what a stupid thing to say - 05/09/2010 07:38:16 PM 990 Views
Um... no? One can be excommunicated for any number of things. *NM* - 05/09/2010 08:22:29 PM 347 Views
yeah back in the time when there was no electricity *NM* - 05/09/2010 08:25:17 PM 388 Views
...um, no. I'm not sure where you're getting that from, but it's completely wrong. - 06/09/2010 01:06:49 AM 901 Views
You can't be excommunicated for being gay - 06/09/2010 02:51:21 AM 983 Views
No one here said you could. - 06/09/2010 03:00:07 AM 921 Views
I am not disagreeing with that, excommunications do happen - 06/09/2010 03:07:57 AM 996 Views
Wow! What an underwhelming argument. - 06/09/2010 04:24:32 AM 966 Views
Actually, the Pope has the right to say "sorry, you're not a Catholic anymore". - 05/09/2010 08:43:34 PM 1107 Views
See above post - 06/09/2010 02:52:25 AM 841 Views

Nope - 06/09/2010 03:03:48 AM 893 Views
Inaction, like, for example, not saving lives where you could have is also grounds for expulsion. - 06/09/2010 06:35:31 PM 761 Views
Hmm, but I think that's a different type of inaction than the kind he's discussing - 06/09/2010 08:02:50 PM 1076 Views
I never infered that that was the case. - 06/09/2010 08:24:30 PM 775 Views
mmm, but your example isn't inaction ALONE - 06/09/2010 08:46:56 PM 875 Views
Hmm interesting question. - 06/09/2010 10:35:19 PM 961 Views
is excommunication about "use" though? - 06/09/2010 10:36:55 PM 995 Views
I don't know. - 07/09/2010 05:47:42 AM 840 Views

It's pretty hard to argue with that one. *NM* - 08/09/2010 04:18:41 AM 330 Views
Yeah, was just surprised they'd made it official is all. - 08/09/2010 04:36:28 AM 945 Views
You are purposefully trying to split hairs - 07/09/2010 03:15:08 AM 881 Views
Calling me an idiot... - 07/09/2010 05:52:39 AM 894 Views
My turn to split hairs: - 07/09/2010 12:10:33 PM 884 Views
does excommunication mean you are no longer Catholic? - 06/09/2010 08:52:58 PM 775 Views
i'm pretty sure we have this conversation on a weekly basis. *NM* - 06/09/2010 09:05:33 PM 370 Views
Yeah. - 06/09/2010 10:34:10 PM 764 Views

Depends on who you ask - 07/09/2010 03:12:23 AM 1019 Views
It's both. - 07/09/2010 05:54:13 AM 973 Views
I'm unsure about that. It doesn't invalidate baptism. - 07/09/2010 08:23:33 AM 838 Views
I thought conformation is what made you a member of the church *NM* - 07/09/2010 06:42:36 PM 336 Views
