After the Inquisition, I'm no fan of the CC. Thousands of people were tortured and killed, including Jews. I have nothing against Benedict, per se, but even if "apostleistic succession" was given after Peter, the CC worked themselves out of it with that medieval episode alone. Plus, all the crap since then, not least of all, "celibate" priests raping children. If you guys are trying to impress the hell out of me, you got a long way to go, baby--one can almost hear the "Mission Impossible" theme playing.

I submit to youse guys that 30 minutes of Joyce Meyer is worth more than all of your extra-Biblical teachings. No way I'd ever counsel anyone that the CC is a better way than a Baptist or Pentecostal one. Benedict wanted unity, so I have a suggestion for Catholics. We won't join you--you join us.

Live by your own tagline, and verify what you repeat before you post it.
