"Seriously!?!" And that was it. They never discussed it again, but the Catholic girl for the first time stepped into the shoes of an outsider and started to see how bizarre it must sound to the ears of those not indoctrinated with it.

Whether or not something appears to be amazing or even bizarre is not a logical basis for rejecting it. The question, "is it true", followed by a serious effort to engage the best arguments for and against whatever the matter might be -- that's a sensible reason to accept or rejecta proposition, not whether or not it sounds preposterous to someone else.Austringernoreply@blogger.com
