I agree, shame though with other so called Christian churches turning from the Bible, the Catholic Church had a real opportunity to reclaim it’s mantle as the mother church. I am afraid it will lose all credibility as have Anglican and some Methodist and Lutherans.
I agree with you. One reason I decided to investigate the Catholic Church was that I thought it had the intellectual ammunition to defend the Bible. But I found it not only was uninterested in doing so, it actually joined the other side and warred on Biblical veracity constantly.
Catholic leaders like to claim how ecumenical they are. They actually could have had an ecumenical link with Fundamentalist Protestants but chose instead to spit in their faces and jump in bed with liberal Protestants who believe absolutely nothing. There isn't a single Catholic "apologetics" organization aimed at liberal Protestantism. They are all aimed at Fundamentalist Protestantism and treat it like leprosy (the real thing, not tzara`at).
The only logical reason the Catholic Church is friendly with liberal Protestants and hates Fundamentalists is that they agree with the liberal Protestants. Shame, shame, shame on the Catholic Church. They decided to join the trailer park bashing mainstream so everyone would like them. Then they turn around and boast of their own millions of illiterate peasants. Of course, those are the "right kind" of illiterate peasants, aren't they?
