” if you attend Mass for three years you will experience FAR more biblical teaching than you would recieve during and weekly protestant service..... “

Don’t kid yourself.

Instead of meaningless repetition, we are taught through whole books of the Sacred Scriptures, verse by verse, book by book. In addition, our congregation is reading through the whole Bible together in our personal devotional.

Please note, hearing Scripture read is good, but being taught what they mean in their entirety is much better.

Missing vast portions of God’s revelation leaves you deficient.
Repetitiously hearing the same thing over and over without understanding the context and meaning, is to remain in ignorance.

Best.

I couldn't agree with you more!!!!! However, remember that the Catholic Church is the only organization on Earth to have the authority to interpret scripture. You can see what happened when Luther, Calvin, Zwingley, Henry VIII, The Wesley brothers , etc. decided to interpret things for themselves...what could possibly go wrong??
