Yeah, I think your mindset is too frail for Christian apologetics. But I thank you again for the superb example you provide of Catholic casuistry, in your dancing around the meaning of "inquiry" to backtrack from your insinuation of dominance.

Yes, I switched from criticizing theism to criticizing Catholicism in particular (to address your initial criticism of my article). No, I wasn't thereby "inquiring" into Catholicism or Christianity. I said exactly what I was doing at the beginning of that earlier comment: "I’ll sketch further how I think the argument from incoherence can be applied to Catholicism and to Christianity in general."

So I was arguing that Catholicism is incoherent, to show how that atheistic argument is stronger than the argument from evil. How is that reasonably construed as "inquiring" into your religion? By saying I was inquiring, you insinuated that I didn't yet have the answer, that I was seeking knowledge, which is the purpose of an investigation. You were insinuating that I was only trying to determine whether Christianity's incoherent, rather than sketching how the demonstration of that incoherence would proceed--which is exactly what I said I was doing. I've written many dozens of articles on Christianity, so I've already investigated the matter.

You seem surprised that an atheistic philosopher would perceive the writings of a conservative Catholic apologist "negatively." The only thing I respect about your comments is that they were argumentative and relatively thorough. As to what you're defending, I don't respect it at all, just as you have no respect for atheistic naturalism or for secular humanism (because you find it sinful and worthy of hellfire).

I read that article of yours defending the Hell doctrine, and again you don't demonstrate in it that you've spent any time personally thinking about the matter. You just quote the catechism and the Bible and rehash the same trite official responses that have been made thousands of times before. It reads like a brochure that might be sold at a Vatican gift shop. But by taking that approach, you avoid dealing with the thrust of the problem, which is the conflict between a God of love and a God of justice (yet another point of Christianity's incoherence).
