So you currently have some opinions about what may or may not be God's truth. Well, from my perspective, I guess that's good, because I believe y'all are wrong about some things, and I'm glad you're open to changing your minds, but I have to say most evengelicals I know and know of are convinced that their interpretation is right and refuse to even consider other options. As for Catholics, we believe the Truth is the Truth, we got the Holy Spirit, Bible, the Church and tradition, and we're rock solid on what we believe.

Right?!?!

Find me two Bishops or Priests that can agree on what Catholicism believes. I could find you 1000 posts of staunch Catholics here on FR denying that what some Pope, Cardinal, Bishop or Priest is teaching is really Catholic teaching.

Sure, there is a "single" version of the Truth of Catholicism. It's just that EVERY single Catholic (including the Pope) has his own version of what it is.....

Admittedly, changing one's beliefs based of what one reads in Bible is much more difficult than reinforcing one's beliefs.....
