But you left out the greatest heretic of them all...The Catholic church which calls itself the one true church that Jesus founded...

And then this:

Finally, the doubt or denial involved in heresy must concern a matter that has been revealed by God and solemnly defined by the Church (for example, the Trinity, the Incarnation, the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist, the sacrifice of the Mass, the pope's infallibility, or the Immaculate Conception and Assumption of Mary).

You apparently chose to believe that the God of the Bible has revealed some sort of extra Biblical truth to your popes even tho many were drunks, committed fornication, bore kids out of wedlock, were homosexuals and child molesters, passed on the position to family, and even sold the position of the head of the magisterium to others, and killed each other for the title...

And God revealed to these insults to Christianity that theirs was the one, true religion, that they, themselves were infallible and that Mary had an immaculate conception, etc., etc...

The heretics you describe are mild to laughable compared to the heresy of the Catholic religion...

False accusation, to begin with. Also, how many in your religion are not sinners? As a percentage (since the membership is only one, if I recall correctly), if you would. The heretics you describe are mild to laughable compared to the heresy of the Catholic religion...

Since Catholicism is not a religion, that relieves us of any accusations of heresy (which is strange anyway since the Church defines heresy anyway).
