In Matthew 11:21-24, Jesus told the cities of Chorazin and Bethsaida and Capernaum that He would bring His wrath down upon them because they scoffed at His miracles. So, as you imitate Christ, how do you put those verses into effect?

The God that I know has not ever told me that it's acceptable to beat my girlfriend because she doesn't obey me. In fact, I openly welcome her free thought. It goes so far as to say that I like it when she acts dominant on occasion.

So you're a Catholic and, it sounds like, a queer. You're almost certainly beyond redemption.

It's tedious explaining Christianity to Catholics, because you study useless rituals and saint worship in catechism instead of reading the Bible. For once in your life, would You just stop eating the pablum that your priests feed you and use your brain?

Where in the name of all that's Holy did you get that notion?
For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 8:29

"Christians cannot sin"? Excuse me? We are all sinners. Each and every single one of us. Just because we have accepted Jesus Christ as our lord and savoir does not save us from being sinners. This is why we must repent.

Yes, we are all sinners, because Adam and Eve disobeyed God. That doesn't mean that we can keep on sinning after we are saved. I have not committed a single sin since Jesus spread His sweet-smelling blood on me. Of course, Catholics can sin, because you aren't Christians.
Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin.... 1 Peter 4:4

I have met many a woman who vastly surpasses the intelligence of the majority of men I have met. My girlfriend is among them.

Then why is she still with you?

In fact, I actually believe her to be a better person than I most of the time.

That we all believe. Not that you've set that bar especially high.
