I agree, you do.

As you likely know, you were replying there to Oliver Cromwell.

I’m afraid I don’t follow you. I understand you insomuch as your original point was about you being a Catholic (hence not a non-Catholic, cf Aristotle :cool:) who isn’t Roman Catholic. But the last sentence I don’t get.

" I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken" is a quote from Oliver Cromwell, which I thought an amusing reply to the article, which was suggesting folks should be open minded, and discuss things.

Sort of a joke type thing, in its conception. Execution maybe lacking, but a “sense of humor” sort of attempt.

Wasn’t going for the Catholic - non Catholic thing, but appreciate the recognition of what I assert.

Hello Peter and Duane,

Yes. The CC is The only one still saying divorce and remarriage is adultery. Contraception is sin. Sunday is still an obligatory day to worship. And there’s no such thing as eternal security…

Hello Duane,

I did look up how Webster defined “pregnant” and “fetus”. You claimed the Webster definition for pregnant is:
  1. (of a woman or female animal) having a child or young developing in the uterus: “a pregnant woman” synonyms: expecting a baby, expectant, CARRYING A CHILD, expecting, in the family way, … more
When I checked the definition it is:

containing a developing embryo, fetus, or unborn offspring within the body

The definition for fetus you claimed is from Webster is:
an unborn offspring of a mammal, in particular an unborn human baby more than eight weeks after conception.

When I looked up the word the definition is:
an unborn or unhatched vertebrate especially after attaining the basic structural plan of its kind; specifically :* a developing human from usually two months after conception to birth—compare embryo

Where did you get your definitions from?

Hello Superwimp,

My apologies. Oxford dictionary for both definitions. en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/us/pregnant

But even your source hurts your contention. Your source calls it an unborn offspring. So look up offspring from your source, and you get: child.

Thanks. Although I’d say that what I’m seeing there is a falsehood not a redefinition of adultery.
