**(Bottom line, I just dont see the need for all the hatred. I can see disagreements, but I dont understand people acting as if Catholics were Buddhists or (gasp) Moslems.**
And what about the Mormons who feel bashed right now? Catholics have put up with this kind of treatment for years. Yet we still stand strong for Christ.

“Is Pedophilia in the Bible?”
Along with many sins condemned by the Church. Since the Church has ALWAYS taught that such actions are sinful and since EVERY denomination today has had pedophile and other sexual criminals in the pulpit your bigotry is the only thing that your question illustrates. BUT YOU KNEW THAT, DIDN’T YOU?

If the pope were the antichrist, that would mean that every seven and a half years on average this antichrist would die and be replaced with another antichrist.No one know when Jesus is coming back or when THE Antichrist spoken of in Revelation will come to power. (This is another subject on which I AM NOT equipped to debate on. Perhaps Dr. E could help here.)But there are antichrists with us all ways...IMO!
Matthew 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

This sounds like a personal attack to me.
Why not just bow down towards Meca five times a day...it'll have the same effect!

Really? Since when are prayers “personal attacks”? What denomination do you claim?

I was raised catholic, gave my life to Christ in a Baptist church and attend a non-denominational church.Wow, that's me to a tee, except I finally came full circle back to the Catholic Church.
Sort of a prodigal son if you know what I mean.

Sola Scriptura, if it isn’t in the Bible it doesn’t count. Makes you wonder about traffic laws, eh what?
STS indeed!

The belief that is first and foremost the defining characteristic of Fundamentalists is their reliance on the Bible to the complete exclusion of any authority exercised by the Church.It's too bad that most Catholics (including you) confuse this with total Biblical inerrancy and feel that in order to be loyal to their church, they must hold the Word of G-d to be full of errors and contradictions.

My Bible is sitting on a table just beside me. California CatholicUm . . . does it include commentary and notes which endorse the "documentary hypothesis" and say that not everything in it has to be true?

::Sigh:: I am sorry someone from the prestigious class of '98 has to ask that here.
Since joining FR in '99 I have argued with Catholics that the Bible is totally inerrant on all subjects. The vast majority of Catholic FReepers disagree with this (as a matter of fact, most Catholic FReepers are evolutionists).
Please note that I have not argued for sola scriptura. I myself reject sola scriptura and have access to an authoritative oral interpretive tradition. But most Catholics not only reject sola scriptura, but total inerrancy as well. Most subscribe to a sort of "partial inerrancy" in which the Bible is inerrant in matters of "faith and morals" but not on other topics.
Why don't you ask your co-religionists here about this? I'll be glad to provide you with names of Catholic errantists/evolutionists if you're interested.

To: Oliver Optic
As you read the prayers below think of them as a salutation and in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of Jesus who died on the cross to save our souls. The prayer in Greek tradition:
Θεοτόκε Παρθένε, χαῖρε, κεχαριτωμένη Μαρία, ὁ Κύριος μετὰ σοῦ. εὐλογημένη σὺ ἐν γυναιξί, καὶ εὐλογημένος ὁ καρπὸς τῆς κοιλίας σου, ὅτι Σωτήρα ἔτεκες τῶν ψυχῶν ἡμῶν
Mother of God and Virgin, hail, Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, for thou hast given birth to the Saviour of our souls.
The prayer in Western (Latin) tradition:
Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum. Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Iesus. Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc, et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
