Seems to me that the very fact that they don’t hunger to read God’s words is indication enough that they have no heart for God but have some other motive for belonging to the RCC organization.

Then there is this quote.

“Ignorance of Scripture is ignorance of Christ.”

What’s up with that? I thought that the RCC believes you don’t even need to know Christ to be saved.

You win the outrageous statement of the day award. Perhaps you missed this in the original post.

For Catholics, Bible reading is liturgical. Hence, Bible reading remains chiefly a community experience.

The hunger is fulfilled at mass.

That’s over in the OTHER thread.

This one shows promise of a bit more civil discourse.

(But I’m late getting to it; so we’ll see...)

Only in the RCC that exists in your fantasy world.
