Probably. But I’m not willing to assume or speak for them.Catholic thought teaches that the mystery of man only makes sense in the light of Christ.
Wouldn't that be true of any christian faith?
When we ignore liars, victimizers, bullies, cheaters and deceivers: Who else than Christ should be in the center of anyone who calls himselve on the own free will "Christian"? And why not to speak for others? Not to try to speak for others - for example for Jews - was one of the worst mistakes of Catholics under Hitler. Sometimes "tolerance" is perhaps only cowardice. And yes - you are right, when you like to criticize me now, that I used "to speak for them" in another context. But this was the first context I imagined when I read "I'm not willing ... to speak for them". This was under Hitler - and is still today - one of the worst sentences in all tyrannies.
I think you took what I wrote out of context.
That's what I said. Nice that you suddenly know what a context is. By the way: You are a pantheist arguing against the word "pantheism" and I have with pantheisms nothing to do at all - even when I say god is always here direct in the middle of our eyes. And it is also not pantheism to say god created Jesus. And when you say Jesus was not begotten - how was mother Mary able to get pregnant? And with all the exceptions, which you make for Jesus - how was he able to be a human being at all with your constraints?
And by the way: Do you believe in god or is god only a tool in your propagandistic toolbox?
Brother, I don’t say those things, the catechism says those things.
Of course I believe in God. I’m starting to wonder if you do.
