Catholic apologists here are defending the faith, Protestants try to disprove them by attacking every single teachings of the Church.Well, I have been here long enough to see that there is as many who want to prove the Protestant wrong as there are those Protestants who want to prove the Catholics wrong. Not that I don’t have a certian amount of ego or faults of my own, it is just an observation and the reassurance that this is a fallen world.
Why would we not want to correct the mistakes of the Protestants? If you saw someone about to fall into the abyss (not that I think this is the fate of all Protestants), then would you not hold out a hand and help them?Well, I have been here long enough to see that there is as many who want to prove the Protestant wrong as there are those Protestants who want to prove the Catholics wrong.

Not all, I saw folks baiting Protestants with Sola Scipture, where the question was actually asked, “if the Bible was never written, would you still be Christian”. Now what is the point in that, do tell, and how does that add to the glory of God?Catholic apologists here are defending the faith, Protestants try to disprove them by attacking every single teachings of the Church.

Only if they extended the hand first, I wouldn’t presume to correct them without them asking.Why would we not want to correct the mistakes of the Protestants?

So you would let them commit spiritual suicide? That is not charity, it is selfishness.Only if they extended the hand first, I wouldn’t presume to correct them without them asking.
I see both.Not all, I saw folks baiting Protestants with Sola Scipture, where the question was actually asked, “if the Bible was never written, would you still be Christian”. Now what is the point in that, do tell, and how does that add to the glory of God?
My dear Ateryu, have you ever watched the proud refuse charity? The kingdom is for the humble, not the boasters. As St Francis said, “preach the Gospel always, and when neccesary use words.” That’s as close as I remember.So you would let them commit spiritual suicide? That is not charity, it is selfishness.
But you are suggesting we don’t even offer the proud charity. This is a position to which I disagree. Should we only offer help when it is asked? Or should we give the offer to help ourselves? I hold to the latter position. Then, it is up to them to either respond or refuse to my help.My dear Ateryu, have you ever watched the proud refuse charity?

You’ll probably need the ask a moderator to do that for you. The mods don’t have time to read through every single thread…OK, maybe its time for this thread to be closed as it does nothing to help people. Close it.
