Folks, I apologize for Joe Vaz wasting your bandwidth. He has not offered one substantive point to counter the facts pointed out. He is upset by my comments but has not spoken a word when a like-minded person in his group used the phrase "sick and depraved" to refer to people who occasionally raise church issues. Their name-calling, personal attacks, spring from their own insecurity of their beliefs. His understanding of current church theology is a 10 year-old in catechism class. I have no problem with 10 year-olds or catechism class, except when adults wear their holy-than-thou attitude on their religious sleeve in public. I can only take them seriously when their offer a balanced view and acknowledge some of the issues raised.
Since Joe Vaz and others are not offering any substantive points to discuss, this is my final post. They are not interested in serious discussion except to malign people and their views - and waste bandwidth in the process. Regards, George
