I'm sure the "company" feels your pain regarding the Luther's of this world, the flies in the ointment. Just think of how much could be consolidated and controlled if burning at the stake were still an option.=o)

I'm sorry, but any man who claims to know more than the followers of Christ, the first Christians and the 1500 years of Christians before him about what Christ actually taught is to be highly suspect in his thinking.

If you study the history of Christianity, you will not find "sola sciptura," "sola fides," rejection of the sacraments, rejection of the priesthood/celibacy, rejection of intercessory prayer, etc., prior to Martin Luther. To follow Martin Luther is to follow a tradition invented in the 16th Century. To follow the Catholic Church is to follow a tradition began by the Apostles themselves.

Which do you suppose is truer to the saying and teachigs of Christ?
