You asked: “Ever hear of Catholic Teaching, Early Fathers of the Church, the Magisterium?”

Nope! Don’t abide much in mans opinion. I read the Bible myself. I found that too often the guy I was listening to was didling little boys, going to strip clubs, cheating with the church secretary, or some other activity. I have found the only thing I can trust is the Bible. Has never let me down yet.

Please educate yourself:

The early Church fathers knew the apostles directly. They are believable.
