How interesting.
Do you still consider them Catholics when y’all want to do a head count and brag on 1.2 billion strong?
They sure enough are considered Catholics when it comes to counting numbers to brag on how big their church is.
Rather hypocritical, is it not?
Says who? Who are you to differ from your church which affirms such as members in life and in death?
But Daniel look at it from your standpoint - they are really protestants, not really good protestants, but protestants none the less. They are just one banana peel away from joining you in your own smug satisfaction.
To the contrary, it is you who are acting according to what you condemn us for doing, that of ascertaining the validity of claims by examination of the supreme source for such, rather than, like docile sheep, following the pastors as per certain papal teaching.
They are however, as liberal Prots, for the problem is not ascertaining the validity of claims by examination of the supreme source for such, but that their supreme source is not Scripture as the wholly inspired and accurate word of God. Those who hold most strongly to that are the most conservative, even among Caths, but a minority do so, and your own NAB notes and helps are often quite liberal.
sorry; i didn’t post anything pro-Catholic nor anti-Christian- this is just another one of your desperate posts...
i simply noted with evidence that took 30 sec to find, you were relying on left wing sources for your data...you really are hitting rock bottom...
OK. If he’s wrong, the show us the current polls that show the majority of Catholics voting conservative or Republican as a voting block.
Post the poll results to show that he’s wrong instead of just stating *You’re wrong* with nothing to back it up.
We’re not just taking your word for it and mockery and derision is more fitting for liberal tactics than conservative dialog.
Go ahead. We’re waiting with bated breath.
wow- you really are ignorant..I’ve been to a lot of masses where the Catholic church has asked from the pulpit to stop abortion...i’ve been to pro-life walks where Catholic priests have been in attendance...they undertook an unprecedented “Fortnight for Freedom” against obama’s policies two years ago (http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/bs-md-fortnight-of-freedom-20120621-story.html)
should they require everyone to bring voting history cards with them?
I see no Protestant denomination that mirrors the Scriptures as Catholicism does; they all claim to be “Christian”, yet they ALL have embraced divorce, “gay marriage”, female clergy, etc. - though some adherents claim their specific sect of that branch hasn’t done so.
Who is daniella?
And thank you for revealing current FRoman Catholic opinion because I don't know ANYONE from the non-Catholic position who has ever suggested that to me.
LOL- i’ve posted, with evidence and links the fact he’s using left wing sources...but please, continue bloviating and wasting the resources of FR...
Nope.
You can accuse all you want.
Show us the poll data.
Otherwise, you have nothing.
And changing the subject isn’t going to work. I’ve seen that tactic enough to recognize it the first time someone tries it.
Yet in the NT we have an absence of Mary worship, indulgences, praying to the saints, purgatory, continual sacrifices for forgiveness, a papacy, cardinals, etc. in other words no roman Catholic Church.
LOL- changing the subject?? you made an accusation- i educated you...reading comprehension is an underrated skill.
Baloney.
Show us the statements of faith of all those Protestant churches that show that their official position embraces divorce, female clergy, and "etc" (whatever that means)
Throwing out mud hoping some will stick is a pretty poor way to debate.
And yes, you are correct, that no Protestant church mirrors Scripture as Catholicism does. It does have it's own misinterpretation down pat and no one else adheres to it.
Perhaps reading comprehension isn’t your strong suit. Go back and re-read the results of the polls in the post.
You posted no links showing that the majority of Catholics vote conservative and not liberal/democrat.
What you did was change the subject and show that some, or a few, are pro-life.
It in NO way disproves anything that dan said.
Your own church has said you have to be subject to the leadership. Perhaps you missed that.
then thy read the links i posted in response about the source of the polls...the only thing worse than poor reading comprehension is willful ignorance- you win on that count...
“I see no Protestant denomination that mirrors the Scriptures as Catholicism does...”
At first I thought that was a ludicrous statement, but then I realized Rome does look an awful lot like the Whore of Babylon.
a five year old poll and polls created by left wing groups...daniella did a good job for the Catholic bashers...
Dude...you’re embarrassing yourself. Re-read my post on the presidential votes by Catholics.
