you think I am so stupid as to not see the evil you say exists in the Church.

Has nothing to do with stupid, being deceived does not make one stupid, just deceived. sigh. God said He would SEND a strong delusion on the earth and people would believe it...because they choose to believe it. Do you choose rightly TomB? Do you even question WHAT you choose? Your soul depends on it!!
No, I have had you and many other "Christians" on this website over the years explain exactly why, as a Catholic, I am bound for hell. I have examined those explanations, in detail, and have elected with my eyes wide open, to continue in the Church. Not only that, but since I've been involved in these discussions, with my help and encouragement, my wife and close friend have both converted to Catholicism. So, as you can PLAINLY see, there is no deception here.
Now, what makes you smarter, or more in touch with the Lord than me?
