You are probably right. The same could be said for a lot of us Protestants. I should read all of the teachings of the Presbyterian Church first before I take on the Catholic Church. Next, I will have to read up on the Baptist faith because my mother and two of my daughters are now Baptists. So, I have a brother and a daughter who are Catholic as are their spouses and children, and two daughters and their spouses and children and a mother who are Baptists. And I am a Presbyterian. My late husband was Methodist. Are we Ecumenical or what?
As the years went by, Hilda had been an absolute pillar of the church she belonged to for 50 + years, running rummage sales, caring for others, etc. She read her bible so much that the words probably wore off the pages. She lived accordingly.
The Methodist Church in Connecticut is verrrrrrry liberal and eventually Hilda had no Methodist Church that she could attend. Between Hilda and her well-read KJV bible, the old Methodist faith remained alive in Connecticut so long as she remained alive (until 1990 or so). I have no way of knowing her outcome but, if she is not in heaven, heaven must be sparsely populated and I must be in real trouble.
BTW, there is still in print an encyclical of Pope St. Pius X who served from 1903 to 1914 and is the only pope of the last 300+ years to be canonized as a saint. The encyclical is Pascendi Domenici Gregis aka On the Theories of the Modernists. He wrote, among many other things roughly that "the Scriptures are cover-to-cover, word-for-word, the inerrant word of God. Who would say otherwise, let him be declared anathema." He also attacks Darwinist notions of evolution and declares the holders of such notions as anathema.
Again, God bless you and the very ecumenical yours.
