Jason,

YOU: For your info, I and attending their RCIA course and oberving their practises, like to join? Its Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. Check this out. I am not as Catechumenate, but a candidate to them and I am already baptised in St Andrews Cathedral, the most important words by the Priest during the rite is , By the name of the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit, I baptised you with water cleansing baptism and the fire and Holy Spirit is overflowing in me.

ME: It's sad to hear this. As I said before, your attitude makes you ripe for picking. It's only a matter of time before you convert to Roman Catholicism. It's sad. I hope your Anglican friends can do something about this.

I know the RCIA but of course, to you, unless I have been IN one, I can't say I know, right? It's like: a cardiologist is a quack unless he had at least one heart attack or a divorce lawyer is a "frog in the well" unless he himself has been through a divorce - that sort of thing, eh?

Does it make sense to you, Jason? I'm sure you have been to a doctor at least once in your lifetime. He sees many kinds of illnesses - cuts, bruises, flu, fever, infections, typhoid, etc. You trust his judgement and follow his instruction and take his medicine, don't you? But has the good doctor experienced ALL the illnesses that he sees everyday? I'm sure not but won't that make him the frog in the well? Yet you trust him. Why, Jason, why?

If you were in the Amazon jungle and come across a village witch doctor who is used to performing "surgeries" for the villagers without the proper equipment or procedures. SOmetimes he succeeds, many times he fails. Now, here you have a person who has been there, done that. If you have stones in your kidney, would you let him operate on you? After all, he has done it before, he has been there, he is not the "frog in the well", not like your grandpa who lives in Singapore and claims to know the US. Would you, Jason?

Think about it.

Christopher.
