So in other words you argued with me for the sole purpose to argue, as I stated in point 2 a few posts back. Thanks for owning up to it.

"Too bad they didn't ask the one question that really matters."
Which one did they leave out?
|
"Which church do you attend", probably.
I actually think they're right; you get some people who are attending a church where they are constantly struggling with the claims of the church leadership, and often, their beliefs *do* fit another church better.
Although, in some cases, there are fundamental questions that override any smaller points of theology.

No, I argued with you because you kept saying I was wrong, and I was pretty sure I wasn't, but I wanted to find out what you were talking about. Now I know; you had a misunderstanding of my first post (#32) on the topic, and that's why you kept "correcting" things I didn't think I'd said.
I argued because we appeared to have conflicting beliefs about who said what, and you repeatedly talked about backpeddling; since I haven't changed my position, I was pretty sure this must imply a misunderstanding. Indeed, it turns out that you thought I meant something very different from what I meant, and that the accusations of backpeddling result directly from that misunderstanding.

Yes, you're right seebs, you argued just to argue. You usually do. Either that or you're not reading my posts at all.

I would laugh if it wasn't so sad. I argue just to argue sometimes, not all the time, but Seebs is a pretty outstanding person who is consistent and logical in his beliefs and presentation. Others are consistent, I'll grant that much. But logic is from the debil.

"A question about the Eucharist, which pushes Catholicism to the top of the list."

Hmm. In post #44, you said "YOu said you could see passages in the bible that show people believing reincarnation.".
This is not true. I argued with it because it was false.
I see now that it came from a misunderstanding of my original post, as I explained above. However, the fact remains that you were making a false claim about what I said, and I was arguing in the hopes of correcting this error.
