The Bible

[Kyuuketsuki]

I am saying that all Christian variant cults (including Catholicism) are Christian ... or to put it more simply, Catholics and any other cults that follow any significant part of the claimed teachings of Jesus Christ can be considered Christian.

Did you miss where I said Catholicism is a Christian Church?

So you've dropped all these ideas that Catholics are not Christian like all the rest of the Christians? We can finally (at least with you) but this ridiculous segregationalist concept to bed?

IOW Thoughtful simply sates things a little closer to what you believe (possibly because he's relatively recently escaped the cult's clutches) which is just another mild variant on the No True Scotsman fallacy.

You really stretch the NTS fallacy beyond reason Kyu.

Check the No True Scotsman fallacy thread.

And that is just another play using the NTS fallacy.

And that's another dodge.

In what way was I dodging? Be specific.

I am not claiming you were I am simply highly critical of your claim that they weren't Christian or weren't "real" Christian which from the more objective eyes of an atheist invokes the NTS fallacy.

It is no where near the NTS fallacy. Your understanding of Christianity is far from accurate, is all I'm saying.

And you are wrong to assume or believe that I know so little about your dumb hokey belief system ... 16 years of Catholicism, 22 years of what I thought was agnosticism (including 3 years at an Anglican church) and 13 years of debate with theists of all stripes says otherwise.
