No, I have no purpose. You’ve looked up the Vatican’s teachings on Mormons. You know what they say.

If you truly want to learn about Catholics, this is what you need to find out. We believe that WE are right in what we believe. Whether a person is another denomination, or non-Christian at all, it does not make them a lesser human. We are taught to pray for people and live a good example. The Pope himself has said that other Christians and non-Christians who, whether knowing Him or not, tried to walk in the steps of Christ, can make it to Heaven. Not you, nor I nor any other living person can say otherwise, including the Pope, because it is Our Lord’s call.

That’s what I’m trying to say. Everyone who gets a bit of a superiority complex, telling another human being that his/her way will lead them to final damnation, is not doing things the way Catholics do.

That’s all I’m trying to say. It’s not hostile, it’s not evasive, it’s just how it is.

Yes I can read, but I was wondering if a Catholic would have the street courage to say it out loud, especially when they announce themselves as Catholic and then proceed to defend the Mormon church.

Just once I would like to see a Catholic speak out for their faith and it’s belief on Mormonism but it seems to never happen, I am trying to figure out how deeply the members of different denominations are affected by the teachings of their church and how willing those members are to stand up for Christianity.
