It is obvious that cassini doesn’t agree with NASA or the National Earth Science Teachers Association (NESTA). Most importantly, Cassini made a threat which I responded to on the previous page:*Cassini don’t ever threaten my goddaughters with this comment of yours, “No, the Catholic faith is fundamentally and thus doctrinally rooted in the traditional interpretation of Scripture, and a fixed earth and moving sun is the traditional interpretation. Once you start to contradict the Fathers and the true meaning of Scripture, you contradict the very basis of the Catholic faith. The destruction of the Catholic Faith is what the DEVIL DOES, 24/7.” * Ronnie, you apparently don’t find Cassini’s comment to be offensive, whereas I most definately do. This leads to me to think you agree with Cassini. Do you?
It is apparent to me and viewers that Ricmat’s comments and your comments Ronnie, and Cassini’s comments to me earlier and now have only brought about me having to protect myself against unwarrented attacks. Amazing, three men attacking with a failed attempt to humiliate a woman on the Internet doesn’t really look that cool to thoughtful minded viewers.
Get a life Ronnie, no one is humiliating Cassini! He keeps returning to this topic. You are very keen on distorting the truth. Also, you might take notice of Cassini’s last comment to me at the bottom of the previous page! I hope you did take notice him ridiculing not only ARCHBISHOP OF LUBLIN, John Paul II, and retired Vatican astromomer George Coyne! I’m anxious to see what Cassini has to say to Alec. Also, Cassini do you agree the universe is 13.7 billion years old (1)?
Firstly may I thank you Ricmat and Ronnie, for your support, fairness and respect shown. And yes I do agree with ronnie that scientific ‘experts’ on the forum do try to humiliate those who do not agree with them. Now while I was tempted to draw attention to you log as a lady in a light hearted way, I resisted. But now I see you claim some protection as a lady in the face of all these men opposing your style. No need for that, we are all equal on CAF.
That said, one has to have a hard neck if one is to fight the good fight of tradition in the face of the modernism now embedded in the Church. Whereas one could be offended by being compared to a puppy, I know it was not meant like that. I am also Irish, and we are well able to have a good row before retreating to the pub for a pint of guinness that makes us all friends again, even if we differ in opinions. All I ask Log is that posters rebut opinions with answers of their own rather than using NASA, the ARCHBISHOP OF LUBLIN, John Paul II, and retired Vatican astromomer George Coyne. Just because they are NASA, the ARCHBISHOP OF LUBLIN, John Paul II, and retired Vatican astromomer George Coyne does not mean everybody has to agree with their opinions.
For example you single out my comment: “No, the Catholic faith is fundamentally and thus doctrinally rooted in the traditional interpretation of Scripture, and a fixed earth and moving sun is the traditional interpretation. Once you start to contradict the Fathers and the true meaning of Scripture, you contradict the very basis of the Catholic faith. The destruction of the Catholic Faith is what the DEVIL DOES, 24/7”
Here is my account of
POPES confirming the above:
Ambassador Niccolini, who had been very active trying to save Galileo throughout the summer of 1632, requested an audience with the Pope. On Sept. 4th he was granted a meeting at which he presented a letter of protest against the makeup of the special commission. The Pope became very angry with this request saying that ‘Galileo had dared enter where he should not, into the most grave and dangerous subjects that one could possibly raise at this moment.’ He added that those theologians would examine ‘every word’ of the book. Insisting Galileo was still his friend, Pope Urban VIII said there would be a trial ‘in the interests of faith and religion,’ because the matter was ‘troublesome and dangerous, far more serious than His Highness believes.’ Ordering the Ambassador to secrecy, the Pope told him to ‘try to be a bit alert, and I should immediately explain to His Highness that Signor Galileo, under cover of his school for young men, should not impress on them troublesome and dangerous opinions.’ Pope Urban VIII also communicated with Ambassador Niccolini through his private secretary Pietro Benessi, telling him that it was impossible to avoid an official trial due to the damning evidence in the Dialogue. It was, the Pope said, a matter that ‘
put Christianity in danger.’ The seriousness with which the Pope viewed the matter is evident. Later, during an audience on March 13, 1633, Urban VIII reiterated to the Ambassador that Galileo must be put on trial for these ‘new and dangerous doctrines’. What the Pope made clear was that this was a case of serious heretical subversion, ‘which’ he repeated once again, ‘
put Christianity in danger.’
Now what is offensive about that. I can demonstrate the truth of the above remark, but you just find it offensive. What is offensive about it? That is what you should have demonstrated. That is how you respond in a debate.
Finally do I agree with a 13.7 billion year old world? I did once, after it was put into my brain. Then I met a man of supreme intellectual Catholic faith. He thought me how to
THINK as a Catholic. Only then does one find these things ( heliocentrism, uniformitarianism and evolutionism) presented by science are godless conclusions, that is, assumptions that totally reject preternatural acts of God, or His Will in their continuity.
Even my goddaughters know that!
