This thread is ridiculous. If you want to have a theological discussion with a Catholic, have one... we're right here. The nonsense put in conversation form in this thread is absurd.

As to the discussion made in the posts regarding Catholic reverence for Scripture, I simply offer the following excerpt from the Catechism of the Catholic Church:

86 "Yet this Magisterium is not superior to the Word of God, but is its servant. It teaches only what has been handed on to it. At the divine command and with the help of the Holy Spirit, it listens to this devotedly, guards it with dedication and expounds it faithfully. All that it proposes for belief as being divinely revealed is drawn from this single deposit of faith.

Problem is; that deposit of faith wasn't deposited by God...You can't mangle, twist and pervert the scriptures like your religion does and convince or dupe born again bible believing Christians into believing that the Holy Spirit has anything to do with your religion...Other than to condemn it...

It's pretty good hype tho for those who don't and never will darken the pages of God's Holy word, the Scriptures...
