I can't argue with you brain washed catholics so let me just say that if you accepted Jesus Christ as your savior, you are headed for eternal life. All the other catholic blah blah blah means nothing. It has always been used to control the masses. And usually if you didn't grasp it you were burned at the stake. Henry the VIII and Martin Luther were the best things that ever happened in Europe. (although Henry did it for other reasons)
* I was born a catholic so I only needed a light rinse
Martin Luther... the best things that ever happened in Europe...
*Here's you boy, Luther....
"We concede -- as we must -- that so much of what they the Catholic Church say is true: that the papacy has God's word and the office of the apostles, and that we have received Holy Scriptures, Baptism, the Sacrament, and the pulpit from them. What would we know of these if it were not for them?"
Sermon on the gospel of St. John, chaps. 14 - 16 (1537), in vol. 24 of LUTHER'S WORKS, St. Louis, Mo.: Concordia, 1961, 304
Henry VIII: Left the Church because the Pope wouldn't split that which God had joined under the false pretenses under which is was petitioned. This is the same Henry VIII that wrote Assertio Septem Sacramentorum in defense of Catholic Doctrine and the primacy of the Papacy against Luther when the Church wasn't at odds with him. This is the same Henry VIII that was first called "Defender of the Faith" by Pope Leo X... note, it wasn't about the Church of England.
Fair weather friends... You can have them.
