atheism and children

[Catholic_Lady]

I did. Several times.

At best, at least that I've seen and you can direct me to a specific post where you do otherwise if I'm wrong, you just say "this is what I believe, this is what my church teaches, so there".  You're certainly welcome to your opinions, but if blind faith is all your opinions are based on, how can anyone take you seriously, especially now that you are telling us that you refuse to talk about your beliefs, as you recently said in post #141.  How can you expect anyone to think that your beliefs are valid if  you cannot spell out why you hold them, other than "the church says so"?

I said what I believe/what the Church teaches because I was asked, and gave the short answer as to why, which involved more than just "because it's unnatural" and definitely did not involve "because the church says so." I did this several times. And I also explained why I gave the short answer, and said that I have decided to no longer delve too deeply into my faith on this forum (the continued straws are a good example).

I shouldn't have to go through and find those posts for you. They are all on this thread. If you are genuinely interested in knowing, read the thread. Otherwise it seems like you're just trying to argue for the sake of arguing.

The only reason I said a single word about my faith is because I was answering questions. I really don't care one bit if random people on the internet think my beliefs are valid. Not sure why you think I would.
