First of all, you are not the Pope, or a Cardinal, a Bishop or my Confessor. Therefore I am not subject to your scrutiny and you have no authority to tell me what my religion teaches. I am a Catholic. You are not. I am very well learned in my Faith. You know nothing.
Everything that I have said was taught by Jesus to his Apostles. These teachings have been preserved by His Church for two thousand years. If you actually took the time to read the entire New Testament, you would know this.
Secondly, there is One who judges me and His name is not Jerry. Last time I checked His name was spelled G-d.
"If G-d is for us, who is against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, will he not also give us all things with him? Who shall bring any charge against G-d's elect? It is G-d who justifies; who is to condemn? Is it Christ Jesus, who died, yes, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of G-d, who indeed intercedes for us? Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, "For thy sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered." No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of G-d in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 8:31-39)
That part that says "nor anything else in all creation" includes your pathetic , feeble attempt to intimidate me.
Thirdly, heed what Jesus says:
"And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down" Revelation 12:10.
The accuser is speaking loud and clear through you, but I have the Blood of Christ to testify against your words. You cannot bring any charge against me. I was bought with the Blood of the Lamb.
Fourthly, it is no concern of yours whether or not my tattoo goes against the teachings of a Messiah you consider false. As far as you are concerned He was a charlatan. You and many like you hate Him. That said, keep your nose out of affairs that do not concern you. Considering you could care less about Jesus, this clearly doesn't concern you.
It has been my experience that projection is the best self-defence mechanism. You obviously feel threatened that I would have such love and devotion for Someone you hate; so you project what you see in your own self on to me. That's okay though. I'm used to it and now it only serves to bring me closer to Him. For He is the source of all Truth and I am safe within His loving embrace. He feeds Me with His own Flesh and Blood, that I may abide in Him and He in me. We become one flesh each time I receive Him in Holy Communion, and that is something that your nasty, spiteful words can NEVER take away from me.
Pax Christi,
