-and so the vicarious redemption -is- required......which is all I asked you, and the only thing you -didn't- respond to in that post...where you quoted me.
So, now that we can both openly agree that this vicarious redemption business can't be removed from your catholicism...and that without it no one gets the golden ticket.....do you think that it was a morally "good" act, do you think that a system of morality which contains this arrangement -can be- morally "good"...and how has god helped you to determine it's moral status....either way you go with it -as you have claimed- god has helped you regarding the moral status of this, that, and the other?
If you haven't guessed it by now...the comments you quoted directly above are, to me, horrible..disgusting.......immoral, irreconcilably evil....-even- if the pope is willing to share his cookies with me -regardless- of the status of my belief-. Am I wrong? If so....why? I'm not asking you if an atheist can get in....and you know that, so lets cut to the chase, and respond to the questions of those we -choose- to quote -as if- in response. Shall we?
