In no way is the Catholic position supported in the least in the article. Your “that was lame” comment was expected. It’s really all you have right now.

I support all Christian denominations and want everyone to find their way to Christ. I don’t believe that any one denomination works for everyone. No denomination has a monopoly on the Truth. But when one says “We are the only one”, well, I got to stand up to that.

I’m glad you’ve found peace and strength in the Catholic church. I have found it in a non-Catholic church. We are helping people recover from drug and alcohol addictions, we are feeding hundreds of families in our community through our food pantry, and we are helping people find hope and strength through our divorce care program. We are doing the work of Christ. I believe the Catholic church also does the work of Christ. We’re just not the ones saying “We’re the only source of Truth”, because we know we’re not.

In all humility, blessings to you and your family.

The Gospel is not difficult and should not be made to be so. It doesn’t take a lot of words. It’s beauty is in its simplicity.

What you call “lame” because there aren’t a lot of words to it, is beautiful to those seeking after Him.

(BTW - I didn’t comment immediately on each point of the original article, simply because I knew it would not matter what I said. I would be called “lame” or “stupid”).

May the love of Christ penetrate your heart, and may you come to a deeper love of Him, so that it can’t help but overflow to those around you.
