If a man realizes that the Catholic Church is the true Church, he must join it if he wishes to save his soul.

This is what cults do.

Cults brainwash people into believing that their cult, their cult ceremonies, their anointed cult sacraments, and cult priesthood, is the one and only path to salvation. If they leave the cult they will be damned. It doesn't matter if the cult leadership is corrupt and/or completely ineffectual, if one leaves the cult, they are damned.

Wow! Am I ever glad that I found Christ, and broke free of the cult-like hold of the Catholic Church! It is through Him and His atonement that I am saved...not...a cult-like church.

There is much about the Catholic Church that is true, and I respect Catholics who truly practice their religion....but...PLEASE, in this one area of it claiming to be the “true” church..please. TRUCE PLEASE!

Precisely my point. All cults say they are the one true religion. I am still waiting on the Catholics to supply me biblical background as to their beliefs that Mary never sinned and that she can intervene between you and God, isn’t that what Christ did? Is there now a holy quarterly?

If the Catholic Church is a cult, then Jesus is a cult leader. There can only be One Truth.
