>Hm, your sense of superiority or 2000 plus years of doctrine, theology and faith? I will remain a Roman Catholic. You might stop to remember that it is protestants that protested the Church and left. Not the other way around.
How about the Roman Catholic faith that left 4000 years of Scripture in the dust and wandered off with its own man made traditions? Sorry, but God has been around longer than the Church, and has often had to discard an apostasy for a new branch. I know your preconceptions cannot allow you to see this, I just hope it is not pride, and that God will allow this scale to fall from your eyes.
>Determining just who is the apostate or heretic is not hard in my mind. Oh and I do believe that you enjoy calling Catholics and Mormons names. For the record. I do believe that.
I am sorry that you feel that way. I do at times sin, and get all prideful and show anger on this forum, and I can admit this, and when it is pointed out to me, I do repent, and have actually apologized several times here. (Perhaps you read more pride into my posts because I am saying you are wrong? Perhaps this is your pride raising its own head?)
I have been called a liar, a hateful person, and worse. I was even called an ANTI-Catholic a few times by Anti-Protestants! Yeah, I do this for the thrill of being called hateful names and being able to gloat that I am right. Because I do that so much. Like everywhere. See, my tag line always all about me. I have a big T shirt with a big picture of me. It has to be big because my head is so big. You should see the head-hole!
I would not want to just argue with people for no reason, nor have feelings hurt. That would be for PRIDE, not for God. You will notice that those denominations which ARE scriptural I do not have anything to say about with the same vigor. That is because they follow the word of God. I am a BAPTIST, and have no problem with any of the other non-Baptist Protestant Freepers here. Why is that? Because they have the truth of the Gospel, and I would be happy to attend any of their churches, though there are many minor points that we disagree on, I would gladly call them my Christian brothers and sisters.
I do not have the pride to suggest that the Baptist church has all the answers, (rather there are many on the freewill and Arminian side that are just as apostate as the Catholics. When I see that, I call it apostasy to their faces. As I do to Rick Warren, Joel Ostein, and any of the Prosperity heretics out there.) It has many problems, including the breaking into many fragments and not working together. This is a problem throughout the Church, and a lot of that IS pride.
I truly wish the Catholic church would repent of its many idolatries and non-scriptural traditions, but all I can do is point them out. If I become emotional it is because many in the Catholic faith will go to hell, and that breaks my heart.
If you call that being hateful and prideful, then just ignore me, because otherwise you are helping me sin and just feeding your own pride and making yourself angry.
Second, I think you think you know more about Catholicism then you actually do. Scripture is interwoven into everything we do. Even the Rosary. As for idolatry, in whose eyes? Yours? What makes you think that you can tell what is idolatry and what is not? You have no understanding of Catholic practice, you only think you do.
Lastly, as for Catholics going to Hell, some or all, is not a matter for you to decide. It's up to God.
I do hope you have a nice day and a lovely Easter Season.
