I think that LoT needs to be banned for this behavior. After all, bowler was banned for doing the same thing. In order to bump his threads, he takes his original OP and starts to re-quote it paragraph by paragraph. Newsflash ... no one is reading those long blog posts of yours; when people see the length of it, they simply roll their eyes and move along (of the 5 people that actually go into the BoD sub-forum to begin with).

In the Firmiter, the first chapter of the doctrinal declarations of the Fourth Lateran Council, we find the following declaration: "There is, then, one universal Church of the faithful (una . . . fidelium universalis ecclesia), outside of which no one at all is saved (extra quam nullus omnino salvatur)." [Denz., 430.]

You forgot to add your Fenton disclaimer:

"...outside of which no one at all is saved..... unless they don't know they need to belong to the Church".

That is another form of spam and should be prohibited.

I simply quote truth because as you say "no one' reads the whole short article but they will read small quotes.

This is a Catholic forum I should be able to quote small portions of a larger docuмent so that it will be read. Like this for instance:

This formula bears a singular resemblance to one contained in the profession of faith prescribed by Pope Innocent III in 1208 for the Waldensians who wished to return to the Catholic Church: "We believe in our hearts and we profess orally that there is one Church, not that of the heretics, but the Holy Roman Catholic and Apostolic [Church], outside of which we believe that no one will be saved." [Denz., 423.]

Only if it's relevant to the current train of thought in the thread. It's obvious that you do this just to bump your own threads, and that's unacceptable forum behavior. It's obvious because you'll see about 7 or 8 threads that you started all bumped within minutes using this same technique. We may be dumb Feeneyites, but we're not stupid.
