I am stuck on the question of WHY do people RCC or anyone else - expend SO MUCH effort on extra-Biblical doctrines? Why create so many “talking points” and defend such extra-Biblical stuff so stridently?
The ONLY conclusion I can come to is that of being unsatisfied with Christ. If Christ is enough, no need for all this distracting, argumentative, religion - be it Marianism or PurposeDrivenism.
A pox on the whole lot of religious zealots for whom Christ is not adequate!
Jumping to conclusions and generalizing is just conjecture.
AMEN, Manfred. That’s the crux of the problem. Freepmailing you.
