The Catholic Message Board

I have an argument to this.

I'd ask my challenger what he means by that.

Will probably say "it means you cannot call anyone father"

Oh. Let's test that.

There's a commandment. It reads "Honor thy mother and....someone."

He is likely to say "Father"

I'll reply "NO! Call no man father! Let's try this again! There's a commandment. It reads "Honor thy mother and....someone.""

Lather, rinse, repeat multiple times until the opponent realizes something is wrong here.

I'll then say "your interpretation of those words contradict the word of God"

Jesus said that during his ministry on Earth. Since the Church birthday is Pentecost after the Crucifixion and Resurrection, the Church did not exist when he said that.

He DIDN'T mean, "Hey, y'all I'm fixin' to start me a church, with priests an' all. Don't be callin' those priests Father."

What he meant was, "God is more truly your Father than the man who sired you,"

No, that isn't what he meant, and I can't believe you just tried to give a serious answer to this joke thread

When is a thread a joke? When people needle each other. ( People who needle people are the luckiest people in the world.)

When is a joke a thread? When the punch line is hanging by one.

Gotta admit this made me laugh out loud.
