"THE hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church has published a teaching document instructing the faithful that some parts of the Bible are not actually true.

"http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,13509-1811332,00.html"

I have yet, in my 50 years of life, to come across a Roman Catholic Church member who ACTED in his day-to-day life as if he did believe that any of the Bible is actually true. There may be some, but I've just never come across one, and I've traveled from (USA) coast-to-coast and all over East Asia. I mean, many Christians have testified to me about their faith in Jesus Christ...to me personally, face-to-face. But no Roman Catholic has ever approached me at any time, in any fashion, in any context to tell me how being a Roman Catholic has given them such joy. I've never seen Roman Catholics ever studying their Bibles together in parks or restaurants. Maybe some do. I've never been handed a piece of literature encouraging me to consider Roman Catholicism as a faith or a way of life.

So, that the RCC would put out a document to the effect that some parts of the Bible are not actually true probably didn't cause much of a stir among Roman Catholics, did it?

Hardly a ripple, if that.
