I'm not hostile to Roman Catholics; I'm only hostile towards the serious errors in the Roman Catholic teachings, because I'm a truth-seeker just like you. I will admit that sometimes my posts take on an aggressive nature and the post you're referencing was one of the more aggressive ones. Hey Czarina (Katherine from before, right?).

I believe that there will be an eventual falling in to the dark ages, because people will not be able to read books. Then there will be a return to the feudal system, as all the smart people will legislate the not-so-with-it ones into serfdom. Great scott, where’d that come from?

I'm praying that God's grace will open your mind to the Truth. I don't think Christ intented Christians to be so hostile to another Christians.

Language is interesting. It's fun to use cool words. Sadly, I think I spend more time rehearsing cool things to say than actually saying them. I like language. Language is interesting.

Webster is still more "exclusive", I believe. In fact, the American Heritage Dictionary was created in a response to Mirriam-Webster. (Thanks, Wikipedia!) Other "dangerous" words added a few months ago: "Perfect storm," "IED," "Bollywood" and "telenovela". Merriam-Webster has been critized for not upholding “standard” english since the 60’s.
