Questions posed to Kosta50 and his answers...

"Do you believe in transubstantiation?"

No I don't.

"Or since it's considered a miracle like the others that you appear to dismiss, do you write that off as *magic* as well?"

Yes.

"If the miracles in the Bible are all magic as your posts indicate you conclude they are, why go to mass? Isn't it then just a magic show?"

To me it is.

Instead of trashing the apostle Paul, RC apologists' time might be better spent instructing guys like Kosta who says the mass and the miracles of Christ are all a "magic show."

Does this mean that Kosta50 is anathematized by Rome like Protestants?

I was never a Roman Catholic, so your question is moot. The Orthodox anathematize only those who teach doctrines contrary to the Church. I do not preach another faith, so there is no reason to anathematize me. I have removed myself from the Church. If anything the Church would pray that I find my way back.

It would, now wouldn’t it.

But rather Catholics ooohhhh and aaaahhhh over his dismissal of their faith as a fake and hold him up as some kind of hero and hang onto his words thinking they’re profound.

They even claim it helps their faith and makes it stronger.

riiiggghhtttt.....
