    It's a leftist tactic promoted by Saul Alinksy; ramp up ad hominem attacks when you cannot discredit the position of the speaker.  Shout down the opposition, stamp out the exchange of ideas. 
    Never engage is a proper debate, just shout, call names, stamp your feet.  It is Marxism on parade.

    ...and shall we take a look at the "living magisterium" of FEism?

    "... proper debate..." :) You crack me up sometimes miss/ma'am.

    Did you really just post a video from drug-using, well-known occultist, atheist and heliocentrist extraordinairre CARL SAGAN?
    Are you having a senior moment??

    Even granting arguendo all that you charge, just where does the Church teach that we can discount out of hand what someone says, particularly as regards their professional qualifications, out of hand?

    As one often on the business end of the "charity bat", I ask you, are we only to exercise justice and charity when it comes to those of our "tribe"?

    That sounds more "Yeshiva" than "Summa" from where I sits.

    Less "flat", more Faith. "MORE COWBELL!"

    Do us all a favor, and have a Catholic "moment".

    If you have been following the flat earth threads, you will see that is a total lie. But presuming you have not here are some links to get you started.

    The proof is not against us because the round earth idea is a theory. You presume it as fact, yet you have no basis for this.

    Please don't comment anymore until you have researched the issue first. There is no curvature on the earth.

    Well, you see... truth is very flexible, so you need to keep up with the times. 

    I'm just waiting for their logic to come to fruition...

    Well then clearly you didn't learn very much.

    Not a single explanation from you as to why we can see objects beyond the horizon. As listed in the cases I gave.

    Instead of actually researching something, you just looked for whatever confirmed your bias so you can go back to sleep.

    This post above is a finger-wagging post directed at me, however, my words she is reprimanding me for were a reply to the below quote of Tradplorable.   « Reply #6 on: September 18, 2017, 09:17:09 AM »
    Notice its okay for them to do the ad hominem attacks.   How do you spell H Y P O C R I T E?

    Miss/ma'am, have you gotten a confirmation on that, because it seems rather ambiguous from here.

    Well now, Myrna sure knows how to hurl some insults and epithets, rather than engage in debate, and a whole lot of foot-stamping for an older lady.
