I was watching tv recently with a Catholic friend. When Tom cruise appeared he made a comment about Cruises 'crazy beliefs'. When i asked him how they were any more or less crazy in believing in a magical man who lived thousands of years ago who could walk on water & who rose from the dead he had no real answer other than it must be less insane because more people believe it...
What do you mean by Catholic?
Understands Church teaching, fully catechized, goes to Mass the odd weekend? Or do you both use the term loosely Like calling a man who eats spinach a vegetarian and asking him all about the Vegetarian lifestyle....?
More misrepresentation and more attacks on Religion. You boys should have been out burning bonfires last night with statues on them......

Where's the misrepresentation? You ask what he defines as Catholic, so you don't know what he's "misrepresenting" in the first place. Your insistence on being offended by any criticism of any form of organised religion (even ignoring the rank hypocrisy you've displayed over the years) is beyond boring at this stage.
then ignore it / me....
Hypocrisy? Because I'm not perfect? I never claimed to be. I'm one of the worst sinners - If I'm lucky I may get to purgatory but I have a lot of things to fix.

Tired too of all the religion topics, all the attacks. Its one thread after another. Bored boys so lets try to offend everyone again here....
I will always keep myself mentally alert, physically strong and morally straight

Then put your own advice to good use - ignore it.

Why are you contributing to a thread that annoys you?

The membership here is not static. People leave, new people join. Maybe this lad with 44 posts Is new and WANTS to talk about religion. Just because you don't want to discuss it doesn't mean the subject should be closed.

We realise that we are not worthy of your definition Catholicism. But of course you are the offended one.

Burning bonfires with statues on them??  was i not defending someones beliefs? How can u compare stating that 1 religous belief is as legitimate as the next with a hateful act like that?
