If I am a heretic by choosing not to be Catholic and allowing a man to dictate when, where, and how I worship based on his latest whim then I can come up with some descriptions of the Catholic Church for you that I will for go listing as not to insult any Catholics as you have just done many Protestants.

While I do agree that Mormonism is not Christianity you could not be more wrong about mainstream Protestant faiths like Methodism, Baptists, Presbyterian and others.

But if that man is "yourself" and it's your "latest whim", it's okay?

Why did Jesus assemble the Apostles if He didn't desire unity? Heck, why did He pray for unity in the Garden of Gethsemane if religion is "every man for himself"?

I said what I said to stir the pot a bit.I apologize, it was nto an exercise in charity.

However, people do need to look at who the early church was and it is the church that traces itself to the Catholic church. There are no dictates to worship on a whim in the Catholic church, the magesterium does not, and will not work like that. However, how consistent is you chosen faith on the following: Homosexuality, woman ordination, gay ordination, abortion, contraception, the value of life, etc. etc. tyhe list goes on.
