Again, I never said Zundrah was is full communion, even “Catholics” that are not absolved of all their mortal sins can not receive the Eucharist, these “Catholics” with mortal sins can call themselves “Catholic” but are not worthy to receive the Eucharist.
This is true, but Zundrah is not acquainted with these nuances, and stating that she is “unworthy” to receive will have a bad connotation for her. She is very sensitive, you know.
She is a catechumen, but she is still a member of The Body Of Christ by virtue of her baptism.
What do you mean “she is still”? It was her being a member of the Body that brought her to catechism! She is yearning for a deeper relationship with God. I think you are trying to find fault where there is none.
Are you saying that members of The Body Of Christ are not members of the “a single Catholic and apostolic Church” if they are not in full communion?
No, I said that filling out a parish membership form did not make her Catholic. In the OP, she stated that she intended to tell her former ministers that she had joined the Catholic Church.
Christians that are not in full communion are called “separated brethren”.
Glad you are still reading that catechism.
The above quote says that a “non-Catholic Christian” can belong to the “Church” in an “imperfect” way. If they belong to the “Church”, then whether they are called “non-Catholic Christian” or “separated brethren” or “Catholic not in full communion” does’nt really matter.
It matters to the person who wants to be in full communion. Zundrah does not want to be in any way “separated” from the one Church founded by Christ on Peter, the Rock.
This is the last time I am going to tell…
Thank God for that!
guanophore you have admitted that you like to follow multiple people around like Zundrah and “correct” them if the “offend” you. Some people consider that stalking.
No, Answers, I said nothing of the sort. First of all, there ARE no people like Zundrah! :extrahappy: :dancing:
I do admit, at first I thought she might be a troll, but I quickly came to my senses.
I think you may have confused my statement about offensive language. Language can be found offensive and yet does not personally offend me. As far as correction, Zundrah was so excited about posting and interacting with others about her ideas that she did not take time to read the forum rules. I did not want her to get banned for breaking them before she got what she came here to get. As you can see, she has not quite gotten it all yet.
I am not going to debate someone like you forever.
I am relieved to hear this. It really seemed to me that you were trying to find fault where there really is none. Most everyone here has encouraged Zundrah as our sister in Christ. It is true that there have been some doubters, but those that follow her posts know that she is sincere in her quest, even if her expressions sometimes leave something to be desired.
Go ahead and answer this post if you want, you will be talking to yourself because I will not anser you back since you are NOT worth my time.
I thank you for this expression of affection.
Actually, I answer most posts for the lurkers. For every person like yourself bold enough to post, there are about 10 who do not, but would like to say the same things.
Says the person who follows people around just to “correct” them and silence them if they offend your sensibillities personally, you place yourself above the forum rules.
This is not possible, Answers, as I have told you in another post. Members don’t have the ability to “silence” each other. Furthermore, rude expressions do not become excusable just because I do not find them personally offensive. For example, Zundrah proposes in the thread that she will post a private email. This is against the forum rules. It is not personally offensive to me (it was not my email) but that makes it no less an offense.
None of us are above the forum rules, even the Mods.
