I did not wish to offend you by implying you were lying, so I tried to be as careful as I could in my wording.

I will write this, there is nothing you have written that indicates in anyway you ever were properly instructed in the Catholic faith. Again the conclusion is either you were never a Catholic, or the instruction you received was so poor it made a mockery of the very term “catechism.” I suppose it is possible that you had zero instruction.

Now if I state plainly I suspect it is the first, the implication you are lying is out in the open for all to see. Even when evidence points to that being a valid conclusion I hate to leave it as the only one. After all there are other possibilities. Therefore; I add two other possible reasons for the jaw dropping ignorance you show about Catholic teaching to reflect a more benign cause.

What ever the cause of your ignorance the fact remains. Catholicism does not teach that Truth is found in man. That you have stated it does show a serious want of grasping the subject.

First of all - you think I have a serious want to grasp the subject? LOL! I left that gladly and never looked back.

Really - then where did you guys get your training? I learned that right here RF. For years, you catholics have been pointing to the church fathers as their proof - over and over again. And your pope is a man - and your confessors are men! Check this post out and tell me about catholics not looking to man for truth to even convince others of 'their truth'. 248 posted on Wednesday, January 04, 2012 12:48:45 AM by johngrace
