True. My religious roots eastern US are Mennonite, Quaker, Puritan, Salvation Army, Methodist with some Baptist thrown in. One line of my Michigan roots go back to when the state qmwas Quebec and through them to France. Definitely Catholic only two generations back in that line. Marriages and baptisms in cathedral in Montreal.

My family has been in Michigan 500+ years.

Are you suggesting I trust your own personal interpretations. Are you God?

No, I am not God. But He gives us His word and we can understand it.

One reason we lose so many potentially good men to fight the epic battle against evil is their wives. A man who goes home to a woman not grounded in our values loses the fight for what he once held dear.

ok, I get that you are not God but who exactly is included in this "us" and "we" you are talking about and how do you know He gives His Word that can be understood as He intends it?

Christ = Christianity = Religion. Christ started a very visible church, with a structure, a leader of the church. It had bishops, it had deacons, it had elders. He started the Catholic Church. The word means universal. You can argue about it till the cows come home, but it’s fact.

I’ve did the research. It’s there if you want to find it. When Melanie’s father felt it was safe for his real faith to come out of the shadows, his daughter was baptized as a Catholic. She was 17 years old.

"Wow, what a weird comedian."

Johnny Carson described Emo Philips as "the best joke writer ever."

>> Because true traditional (pre-Vatican II) Catholicism is the only true faith. <<

>> What's the Bible verse in God's Holy Word that specifically says that? <<

It's right next to the bible version that specifically mentions 'sola scriptura' ;-)

So what you’re telling me, is that there isn’t one.

The legitimacy of a child is strictly a secular, government issue. It has nothing absolutely zero to do with a marriage annulment by the Catholic Church.

I don't mean to give any offense. I am reflecting what other apparently misinformed Catholics have opined on the topic. Although I'm not Catholic, I lived in a close-knit Italian-American Catholic community for many years.
