If you believe displaying only 6 of the Commandments is acceptable, then that is your privilege, even though Linda and I may not agree. I'll try to take your "aut caesar aut nihil" (all or nothing) admonition to heart and employ it sparingly. I'm glad to hear that you have actually gotten atheists to at least accept 6 Commandments as God's Word, although I admit I am surprised. I have not had a similar experience. You are correct that it is impossible to prove the non-existence of God. As you are probably aware, if you've studied any logic, that it's impossible to prove a universal negative. To do so would require one to simultaneously be in every possible location in the universe at the same moment. So it is rather odd that skeptics go to such lengths to disprove His existence. Whether they find God "offensive" or not probably varies from individual to individual, so it would be difficult to stereotype all atheists or all skeptics into one category.

You know nothing of those things. You do not even know your Roman heretic popes excommunicated from your church by your other popes... but you will presume to make your assertions and in complete ignorance too.

We often forget that it's easy to condemn others who we consider particularly 'sinful', especially when their sin does not happen to be the ones we are troubled with. We think it makes us feel good about ourselves, but we could just as easily be in their position were it not for the grace of God. Yes, I was hoping I'd get a few 'amens' on this.

Perhaps then you would learn about development and contradictions of your Roman teachings unheard in early church and for hundreds of years or thousand plus years after. You would then know about two or three simultaneous popes each with his own pretense to "apostolic succession" and sending the other two or one with his clergy straight to hell. You would also know that your papacy is a complete fraud and a scam build on proven fallacious documents like the Pseudo-Isidorian Decretals or pseudo Donation of Constantine. You would also know what pornocracy of popes was and its implications. As it is you are completely ignorant and oblivious to those things and to the fact that you are led to spiritual slaughter having believed in false gospel of Rome that does not save but damns only.

The Catechism does away with the second and divides the tenth in two,now, who has a problem with that, and that is really a big deal. The judge is just a judge. This power mentioned is all over the world and has millions of people that would defend it without knowing much about the true nature and who really gives them this authority. Check what happened in the year 787 Council celebrated in Nicea; they were able to honor and pray to whomever they wanted after this Council.
