To my Protestant brothers and sisters:
It's time to come back to Mother Church. We want you, we need you, we love you.
I've spent a lot of time in dialogue with activist atheists recently, and the direction we are going is not pretty. We are witnessing a rapid cultural decline into amorality.
Satan seeks the ruin of souls through the destruction of marriage and family, and the quickest route to his goal is the profanation of sex. The truth and meaning of human sexuality is our era's cultural fault line, and unfortunately, Protestant denominations have been tumbling into its widening crevace at an alarming pace.
The first cracks denying the sacred nature of human sexuality began mere decades ago with the first tentative acceptance of contraception by a Christian church (the Anglicans). After 1,900+ years of unbroken Christian teaching on the immorality of contraception (including 400+ years of unbroken Protestant teaching), a moral evil was suddenly declared good. The entirety of Protestantism, although horrified at first, soon followed suit.
"Woe to those who call evil good" -- Isaiah 5:20
Then came other issues -- sterilization, masturbation, abortion, fornication and cohabiting, homosexual activity and homosexual "marriage". One by one, Protestant communities have broken from Christian teaching and sided with the secular culture. Many Protestant communities do not accept all the aforementioned evils as good, of course, and some are making a valiant attempt to fight one or more of them. However, there is no guarantee that those denominations won't eventually accept other sexual sins in the same way they accepted contraception, sterilization and masturbation. A majority vote by church leaders could launch an unsuspecting Protestant from the Spirit of the Gospel right into the spirit of the age -- the Planned Parenthood age.
Look where you are standing. Unless you stand with the Catholic Church, you may already have one foot off the cliff.
How to guarantee that you'll stand firmly on the ground of moral Truth? Come back home to the Catholic Church.
For over two thousand years:
The Catholic Church has never taught that contraception is a moral good, and she never will. The Catholic Church has never taught that sterilization is a moral good, and she never will. The Catholic Church has never taught that masturbation is a moral good, and she never will. The Catholic Church has never taught that abortion is a moral good, and she never will. The Catholic Church has never taught that fornication is a moral good, and she never will. The Catholic Church has never taught that homosexual activity is a moral good, and she never will.
The moral teachings of the Church have never changed, and they never will.
Human sexuality is transcendent, life-giving and sacred, and the Catholic Church will teach that Truth till the last day.
Dear Protestant, a church with a changing morality is a church built on shifting sand. If you want to build your life and eternity on something solid, build it on the Rock of Peter. Don't be carried about by every wind of social change; come back to the Catholic Church and stand strong with us -- one united Body as Jesus intended.
America may not survive many more generations at the rate we are going, but the Church and her teachings will stand regardless, speaking the same Truths, undisturbed, till the end of time. Believe me, it's a really nice place to be in a storm. Extremely peaceful.
So, come on. You'll like it here, living in peace and joy and certainty. It's your rightful home anyway.
Come back to Holy Mother Church. It really is time.
Luke 1:36 Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)
And behold thy cousin Elizabeth, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren:
But then, after it killed averyone, it declared them to be heretics and their beliefs to be non-Christian.
So - shazam - there weren't any Christians other than the Church after all.
See? All cleared up.
FOTFLOL!!!
You're priceless.
Why, ASSUMED authority; of course!
The joy Catholics have exhibited at the elimination of those who disagree with the *Church* (IOW murder and Inquisition) is rather telling.
And then they’re begging us to *come home*?????
No thanks.
No, merely the SAME as them.
You ARE referring to #305; RIGHT?
I never built a cement statue of her and bowed at her feet and prayed to her...Do you???
Well, Rome has settled it. All IT has to do is think they are NOT Christian and by some mystical and magical force they aren't.
GOD allows U-turns...
Well, there's a major representation of what I said.
No wonder Catholics don't think anyone is capable of correctly interpreting Scripture. They can't even correctly read a simple statement without reading into it.
There's great value in memorizing and meditating on Scripture, and yes reciting it, speaking it out loud.
But there's a world of difference between that and making a statement that was part of a conversation a prayer, or considering it a prayer.
With that kind of reading comprehension, then it probably is better that most Catholics depend on someone else for correct interpretation.
Then WHY; instead of having MASS for the zillionth time in your sacred buildings; are you guys NOT out blockading streets and causing such a ruckus that something WILL get actually DONE about ending this evil practice.
Quick talking and start walking!
As I've said before, there's no evil that the RCC can perpetuate that Catholics will not defend.
Slaughtering men, women, and children is NOT the way to conduct spiritual warfare and is COMPLETELY contrary to the clear teachings of the Bible.
There is no excuse for it, including *That's the way things were done back then.* because they had Scripture, which the RCC claims it wrote, to tell them different.
And Catholics applauding it and praising God for the slaughter of innocents in the name of Christ is straight from the pit of hell.
Like it was mentioned in #329...

She was a mortal woman. If she did not die like everyone else, that miracle would be mentioned in the bible. So do you have any proof she’s not dead?
Hansel and Gretel come to mind...
Let's see her type vicious anti-Catholic bile THEN!!!
Thank you for confirming that my statement was spot on.
Read this, written by Paul in the Bible you guys claim to have given the world.
Ephesians 6:10-20 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.
THAT is how spiritual warfare is to be done.
And just where in that passage is there ANY justification for taking the sword to people because they believe differently than the RCC?
And if you can justify and applaud by praising God for the RCC action in the slaughter of those thousands of people for *heresy*, then since all non-Catholics here are considered heretics by the Catholics on this forum, then you would by implication applaud the same action being taken against any one of us that you all debate here regularly.
And considering the number of FRoman Catholics who regularly express a longing for the days of the Inquisition, it goes to show that NOTHING has changed in Catholicism or Catholic thinking in hundreds of years?
Some home? That's not home. It's the broad path to destruction. It's demonic in its thinking and teaching.
Slaughtering people and rejoicing in it in the name of Christ is Satanic.
