Actually - yes you do misrepresent the faith, but that is not surprising.
People didn't just happen to "start" reading the bible centuries after the canon was established. What they did is they started to stray from the interpretation held by the Church since the beginning.
But yes...moving along is a good idea as I have grown weary of the same old conversation...
protestant: "you catholics worship Mary and the saints"
catholic: "umm...no we don't"
protestant: "yes - you catholics worship Mary and the saints"
catholic: "no - we catholics do not worhip Mary and the saints"
and so and so forth.
Very boring.
Since you've heard of catholic.com and seem intent on arguing, why don't you take it up with these folks here?

I for one think my time is better spent reading scripture.
God Bless you.
I guess the vocab lesson went over your head. If it makes you more comfortable, I will use the new terminology.
You honor God the most, then Mary, then the Saints.
Feel better?
