Catholicism is man’s wisdom added to God’s wisdom. The two don’t mix. Catholicism is cursed by adding to and taking away from the Bible and the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

I believe you are mistaken. The Protestant Bible lacks some books that are in the Catholic version. The Catholic version (accepted for over 1500 years) predates the Protestant version.

However, I don’t think Protestants are cursed because they left a few books out. I just think they are in error.

Doesn’t sound very ecumenical to me and doesn’t seem necessarily related to the topic and the article.

By the way, we set the content of the Bible; it was Luther et al that removed portions Scripture and Luther wanted to rid the NT of most of the Epistles plus Revelation. Just so ya know.

Catholicism adds to what Protestants believe since Catholics also believe in Holy Tradition.

Have you read any of the Early Fathers and their writings about the assumption of Mary into heaven?
