It is really very very very very sad, and disgusting to the core, that the popes have been associating with the Muslim terrorists and dictators , the greatest enemies of Biblical faith on earth ( and even kissing up to them big time).......all the “great reformers” were right about the Vatican, after all?
Neither the Catholic Church nor any of the other ancient apostolic liturgical churches have Biblical faith. Their religion is not based on Biblical faith at all. Only Protestantism (which the liturgicals will be happy to inform you is a recent inauthentic reconstruction with no roots in the chrstian past) has "Biblical faith." The only Biblical faith to ever exist is Judaism, which chrstianity insisted on "replacing."
The liturgicals will also happily inform you that nothing in the Hebrew Bible actually happened. The whole thing to them is one big chrstological parable. They claim that primitive man lacked the vocabulary to discuss or express abstract thought so he used stories instead. That's all the Biblical narrative means to them. It doesn't make any differences that their liturgies include references to Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, or Melchizedek. These are all simply parables which modern man would express abstractly. It is apparently lost on them that thanking G-d for something He never actually did is blasphemous and sacrilegious.
The ancient churches are all also fanatically anti-Jewish, anti-Zionist, and anti-Israel. They hold American Fundamentalists in absolute contempt not only for their literalism but for their Zionism as well. According to them, "Zionist chrstianity is not chrstianity at all." I suggest they must know what they are talking about. It is extremely naive of Fundamentalist American FReepers to not know this about their Catholic and Orthodox "brethren."
In other words, there is nothing surprising about any of this, and it would have happened the same way whether the Pope were a heretic or perfectly orthodox. They all oppose Israel.
