I know this isn't the place for another religious debate,but I at least
have to make a quick statement in response to this.

Andy, I normally agree with what you have to say, but you are wrong here.
If Catholics are not Christians,then there were no Christians before
Luther. You should take a look at what the early Christian writers (within
a couple of hundred years of Christ) had to say,and how consistent their
message was right up through church history.

BTW, I don't think you are grumpy :-) It is just plainly obvious that you
are often very busy.
