I never suggested you could not comment if you disagree. You asked why I “insist on disputing with you.” I explained that you made a comment on which I disagreed, so I made a comment of my own.

How exactly did you show me I and the billions of Catholics over the ages are wrong. You said exactly nothing logical.

There was one logic proof posited here, let me repeat: If Catholic = Universal, then The Catholic Church = the Universal Church.

Those who left the Catholic Church cannot claim to be members of it.

This article is about Catholic doctrine and teaching. Are you suggesting that if anyone disagrees they cannot comment?

I disagree with Catholic doctrine on this matter. The Catholic Church misuses the term universal, as do you. You assert that The Catholic Church is the “original” church, and all other Christians abandoned the one true church. That is also wrong, and I showed you why.

Like every church, the Catholic Church gets some things right and some things wrong.

This article, in its entirety was a defense – based on Catholic doctrine – of innocent human life, and the controversy surrounding the administering of the Holy Eucharist to Catholic politicians who oppose the doctrinal and eternal magisterial teachings on the issue.

Being a pro-life Christian, you could have left it alone, but you did not. Instead you decided to make a gratuitous and entirely beside-the-point statement against my Church. I, as a Ctholic, simply defended the teachings of the Church.

If you don’t care about the claims of Catholicism you shouldn’t have brought it up in the first place.

What part of this don’t you understand, and why do you insist on diputing with me? Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord is saved, and part of the one true church. I really don’t care about the claims of Catholicism.

Let me try another analogy since you didn’t pick up what I laid down with my Republican-Progressive example: Instead of using the name Mountain Man in your future posts, why don’t you just call yourself jeff osonitsch? Since you wouldn’t be using caps its all good! What’s in a name anyway? You can even share my social security number while you’re at it. Of course you’ll have to write it using Roman numerals otherwise people might get confused.

All faithful Christians are brothers in the Body of Christ and will share in the fruits of our Lord’s salvific grace. All the Catholic Church contends, as do all other Christian denominations, is that its doctrine is closest to the Truth, thus the surest path to salvation. It does not claim to be the only one.

You are exactly right: One Church with Christ at its head. Its name is the Catholic Church. Converts are welcome. God Bless You.

Only one church, only one Lord who is head. Sorry.

Neither I, nor the Universal Catholic church deny the truth of the passage you quoted above. This passage refers to the very Church, established by the Lord of Lords and entrusted by Him to St. Peter and the Apostles (and which was handed down by them in succession to the Bishops throughout the ages) from which Luther, Calvin, and the other Protestants walked away.

Once again, one cannot leave the Church, then appropriate its name.
