    It's not the discussion thats the problem, it's the multiple threads on the same topic, and most of all the attitude like your presenting here. If you want people to listen to you you have to learn to calm down and not insult people.

    It is a personal attack whenever you direct it at someone. For example, "You pig!" The "you" obviously is personal. It is directed to the person I am writing to. And if I am writing that to you, you no doubt would be highly offended. Using the second person singular 'you", you have offended many.
    And you wonder why?? If you attack them, they will return fire.
    Your original thread was impersonal, for it was a quote from another website and that is fine. But you did not discuss it in an impersonal way. You went on a rant, not only calling people of Anglican persuasion names but also other Baptists names. That won't win you any points.
    Bashing is personal attacks on others which you have persisted in. Take another look at your own posts.
    First, you have started too many threads all on the same subject.
    Second, if a person disagrees with you then don't make it personal. Learn to debate without putting your emotions into it. Talk about the subject matter, not the person.
    If you have the truth, and can back it up with Scripture, then fine. Read the rules again. If you can't post in grace without giving offence then don't post. If your posts are deliberately made to be offensive to others, why post them. Does that bring glory to Christ?

    Acts 24:16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men.

    I dont seem to have any problem discerning the topic. What is difficult about it?

    It could be worded...

    "Why does the Catholic Church criticize other groups for sharing their convictions with Catholics in order to help them "see the light" and leave Catholicism, while the Catholic Church encourages their people to share their convictions with non-catholics in order to help them "see the light" and join Catholicism?

    Or, another topic heading could be....

    "How can the Catholic Church be so mind bogglingly hypocritical?"

    But Jillion chose...

    "Look here. "STEALING SHEEP" ONLY GOOD IF WE DO IT."

    And why would it be a problem? Its not redundant. I've never seen the topic before here.

    The choice of topic was not so offensive in and of itself. The way that it was presented and "debated" was offensive by originator of the thread.

    DHK,

    I posted that post after just coming to this thread and just reading the 1st few posts.

    Over the past 10 or 15 minutes I've read all 5 pages. Now I see what the problem is. :thumbs:

    OK, you're in. I forgot the BB by-laws...the will of God can be overturned by a 2/3 majority vote.

    Wait...no, that's not it....

    Oh, whatever. You tithe. You're in.
