  • I just want to say that just because I have been against banning roscoe doesn't mean I am soft on him or that I agree with him, you know I too have had my problems with roscoe.  It is just my personality that I don’t feel right about asking anyone to be banned, especially when someone starts a thread about it.  I suppose if a person privately emailed Matthew and asked that might be different, but to start a thread about it doesn't seem charitable.  I know that is just my opinion and everyone has one.

    People here can’t understand how some stand up for a sinner, but Our Lord stood up for sinner too, and aren't we all sinners anyway, in different ways.  
    I remember reading some time ago, somewhere here that Matthew said, if you are so thinned skin that you can’t take someone else saying something you don’t like, you don’t belong on a forum. (paraphrasing what I remember being said, some time ago)
     
    If this was a parish where a person coming each Sunday was insulting the others it might be a different story, but his is not a Church, this is not a parish, but  an Internet forum.  

     
    Please pray for my soul.

    Funny you say it isn't charitable to start a thread asking roscoe to be banned. Is it charitable for roscoe to accuse me of devil worship? Is it charitable of roscoe to call us "jansenist liberals"? Is it charitable of roscoe to ridicule Raoul after his mother died? Is it charitable of roscoe to call this forum "a Vatican II anti-church forum"? There appears to be quite a few fallacies in your reasoning. I would have PMed Matthew, but Matthew isn't going to ban someone just because one person requests it through PM. Besides, I don't even know how frequently he checks his PMs.
    Please ignore ALL of my posts. I was naive during my time posting on this forum and didn’t know any better. I retract and deeply regret any and all uncharitable or erroneous statements I ever made here.

  • No it isn't charitable for roscoe to say some of the things he says, but two wrongs don't make a right.  

    Again SS I am voicing my opinion here, you don't have to agree with me. I notice many of your ilk said some uncharitable things too, so if we were going to bann everyone for being un-charitable we wouldn't have a forum at all, because no one would be here to post.  
    Please pray for my soul.

    So what was I supposed to do? Just sit there and take the insults roscoe was flinging at me? Use an ignore button that does not even completely ignore someone? What started this whole rivalry between roscoe and I was when I told him he was wrong to smoke pot and listen to the Beatles. Why did I tell him that? Because I care about his soul. According to the recent attitude of this forum, I was supposed to just not say anything, to just show roscoe warm fuzzy love and compassion and encourage him to keep doing what he was doing. Sorry, but I defend the truth and don't worry what others think of me. If you think I'm trying to "crucify" roscoe when all I was trying to do was help this forum and those who were offended by him, well you're entitled to your opinion. It's that "either accept roscoe or pack your bags" attitude I've been given from you and others that's made me decide to leave forever if roscoe isn't banned.

  • I'd also like everyone defending roscoe to be aware of what he just said to RomanCatholic on a thread in the crisis section:

    Quote from: roscoe
    That is just to damn bad. If U don't like it then print out the docuмent-- and unless U are to cheap-- buy a bottle of white out and use it.


    RC didn't even say anything wrong. Is roscoe REALLY the guy you want to stick around after reading that post from him?

  • My apologies to RC if the above comment might be considered lacking in charity. I do not however feel that i have been unjust in any of my comments to SS or Myrna for that matter.

    You don't think your comment that I worship satan was unjust? Even after I said I was wrong to say Lennon made a satanic sacrifice?

  • If roscoe bothers you so much, why are you seeking out his posts, that doesn't make sense to me.  

    Sorry you are leaving the forum SS, I sincerely hope we will meet in Heaven someday, all of us, including roscoe.  
    Please pray for my soul.

    You mean quoting his old posts? That's just to show how uncharitable he is. Afterall, my case to ban him would look pretty weak if I presented no evidence for his uncharitableness.

  • For the record I asked in PM months ago for Roscoe to be banned. So did SS, so did others. And just so everyone knows, when you defend someone who is sinning you yourself end up in the sin of scandal.

    I am seriously thinking many people here have neo-cath beliefs. Most of them are Sede's but even more stunning is some may be SSPXers.

    If I called up Bishop Williamson would he approve of Roscoe here on a forum that states it is for SSPXers?

    People are up in arms over the Fisheaters, "OH they tolerate massive sin and scandalize trads, Oh they are not really trads!" The same could be said of this forum right now, tolerating a mortal sinner such as Roscoe, who is a dogmatic Sirinite, "Oh but he CALLS himself a Catholic" So does Benedict XVI but I doubt most of the board would agree that he is deep down like a Catholic.

    Yet for some reason there is sympathy for Roscoe... interesting

    Can you clarify something?...
    You apologized for the Lennon comment before or after Rroscoe accused you of the same.

    After reading what Matthew wrote, and learning that roscoe will be here for a while, I have become CHRONICally depressed.


    Would it be vain to lol at my own comment?  I forgot that I ever wrote that.  Over a year ago, by the way, and before anything happened to my mom.

    I think it's time for this forum to turn over a new LEAF.  
    Readers: Please IGNORE all my postings here. I was a recent convert and fell into errors, even heresy for which hopefully my ignorance excuses. These include rejecting the "rhythm method," rejecting the idea of "implicit faith," and being brieflfy quasi-Jansenist. I also posted occasions of sins and links to occasions of sin, not understanding the concept much at the time, so do not follow my links.
