"We have many virtually lifetime or decades long Roman Catholics who have been led of The Lord away from such and who affirm, essentially the same Biblical facts."

NONSENSE....INDEED. Protest-ant theology is completely man made and denies the entire authority of Apostolic Tradition. How do you believe the early Catholic Church functioned BEFORE the writing of the Gospels and the reinterpretation of the Scripture by the 16th century heretics if not by Apostolic Tradition? Why do you believe that the Protestant Churches are devoid of altars, putting in their place pulpits so as to supplant worship and the primacy of the presence of Christ with sermons? Why do you believe that Protestant Churches deny the presence of Christ in the Eucharist putting in its place the words of men?

I can only say this; the obsession of some non-Catholics to continually prowl the Catholic topic threads and attempt to validate their shaky beliefs by repeatedly testing them against those of Christ's own Church is very revealing. This Catholic believes that many of you are being guided to these threads by the Holy Spirit so that you can know the truth denied you from the pulpits and printing presses of those same 16th century heretics.

What a pile of off-the-wall-wrong words.

“Protest-ant theology is completely man made and denies the entire authority of Apostolic Tradition.”

Ridiculous. “Apostolic Tradition” is a tradition of man. It isn’t anywhere in Scripture. So either you are being facetious here or I better build an ark to escape your world wide flood of irony.

“...BEFORE the writing of the Gospels...”

These were found written LONG before the Vatican decided to change the names of their pagan gods to Christian ones.

“...devoid of altars, putting in their place pulpits so as to supplant worship and the primacy of the presence of Christ with sermons...”

The Word outlines how to worship and what it says is more akin to having sermons than anything out of the Vatican. The “presence”, if you mean the transmogrification, is nowhere in scripture. Neither is setting up an altar for the worship of Christ. Altars and the ‘presence’ are a doctrine of man or demon from the Vatican.

“Why do you believe that Protestant Churches deny the presence of Christ in the Eucharist putting in its place the words of men?”

The “eucharist” stuff is right out because it is NO WHERE in scripture. It is also a magical ceremony and God said very clearly not to perform sorcery. This is all simply works of man and demon from the Vatican.

“...prowl the Catholic topic threads...”

Stop posting threads filled with idolatry and blasphemy and Christians will stop coming on them and mentioning that they are idolatrous and blasphemous.

“...Christ’s own Church...”

Christ founded the Body of Christ made up of all Christians. The teachings of the Vatican are not Christian.

“...guided to these threads by the Holy Spirit so that you can know the truth denied you...”

The Holy Spirit does not guide people into idolatry and blasphemy and that is all that exists in the Vatican edifice.
