To be fair, isn't this attributable to us all? Should we now pray God thanks, that we are not as other men?

The spam machine seems to shut down around 3 pm, up till then it is non-stop, anyone posts something and he responds within seconds. The only way to do that on all the threads in this sub-forum is to post spam. No other way it can be done. He does not read anything just post spam.

What an honor to be quoted in such a manner!

It would seem our poor friend LoT is suffering precisely the consequence that St. Augustine (my Confirmation saint) identified.  Augustine got it right.  And so did Fr. Feeney.

I heartily recommend Desire and Deception by Charles Coulombe, and Bread of Life by Fr. Feeney.

Now, the sacraments produce grace of themselves, ex opera operato, as the technical language of sacred theology says. They bring about this effect except where there is some disposition on the part of the recipient which is incompatible with the reception of the life of sanctifying grace. According to the terminology of the Cantate Domino, such an obstacle exists in a person who is "outside" the unity of the ecclesiastical body, the Mystical body of Jesus Christ. Fenton

The root cause of this poor man's monomaniacal obsession with the salvation of non-Catholics are his doubts about Divine Providence and God's Omniscience and Omnipotence. The difference between him and we who believe that dogmas are the final word on a subject that was previously in dispute, is that he believes that a person can be snatched away from God's Providence, we do not.
