Your claim to a more authoritative understanding of Scripture than the Catholic Church is laughable.

Laugh at your own peril. I stated my own opinion as you are stating yours. I made no claims.

[ealgeone]

We discuss a 2000 year old document everyday. Wanna quit discussing that?

[Mark17]

1. If the Father asked you to be a virgin your whole life and bear His Son, what would have been your reply?

I don't know what a person would do, but God has never asked anyone to be a virgin their whole life. To quote a famous guy named Elsie, Mary was not a frigid Jewish woman, because she had a ton of children after Jesus was born. Rumor has it, they might even have enjoyed the gift God gave to the human race. 😱

In fact true Roman Catholics take Holy Scripture far more literally than those of the protestant revolt heresy

Sometimes you can take it literally, and sometimes you can't. Jesus claimed to be the door, but he did not have hinges. He is the lily of the valley, but he is not a flower. He is the alpha and omega, but he is not a letter. He is the bright and morning star, well, do you see a pattern here? Don't take a verse literally, where the context dictates it should be taken figuratively, and build s religion on it.

BTW, Els, mom, can we be charter members of the PRH? (Protestant revolt heresy) I think it would be an honor. Els, two things, heat the oil seven times hotter, and give us a verse of that old sweet song, the one that begins with, Mary, are you awake. 😇

....”The pope allows equal footing to Muslim prayers in the Vatican.... I suppose that lines up with their belief that they all serve the same god.”.......

It's going to be interesting how the catholic membership responds to their Popes 'integrating' catholicism with Islam sufficient enough to 'worship together'.....

He's got two balls in his court.....to continue to unite the faiths according to the Globalist Elites Agenda which he supports while maintaining "calm" in the membership.

There will be fall out the catholic leadership is willing to lose among it's membership...as seen already of those who have left or contemplating leaving the fold.

If this behavior of the Pope with Islam isn't enough to shake the membership...then nothing will. They will be responsible for their own demise when it's all said and done. We can pray God will give them eyes to see and a mind unshackled enough to recognize the danger they are in.

....” The gates of Hell shall not prevail against it”....

That is referring to the body of believers, the Elect of God... with Christ as the Rock, the Cornerstone and sure foundation of the faith.

As has been said..

“Nothing can be more wrong than to suppose that Christ meant the person of Peter was the rock. Without doubt Christ himself is the Rock, the tried foundation of the church; and woe to him that attempts to lay any other!”

Not when half of the ideas and arguments are deleted for no valid reason or explanation.

Oh?

Are YOU now the judge of what is valid?

And since when has ANY mod had to give explanations?

[Elsie]

With the Pope being all over the map like he is,

What can 'judge' a pope?

A SUPERpope?

[Elsie]

I’m concerned that you do not know these things.

Proper recitation of 125 Hail Marys should enlighten your soul.

[Elsie]

Hey guys I have an idea: Since it's so much fun to dredge up old news that makes the Catholic Church look bad, why stop with this article?

Hey guys I have an idea: Since it's so much fun to dredge up old news that makes the Protestants look bad, why stop with this article?

After all; LUTHER is still fair game for Catholics!

[Elsie]

... old news that makes the Protestants look bad...

What?

Who mentioned Koresh, or joe Smith or Jim Jones or ...

[Elsie]

It'll be endless sources of fun times, rehashing the same subjects and same arguments, on both sides, over and over and over and over and over and over....AGAIN!

Yup!

Mary is STILL dead and Rome cannot prove me wrong!

[Elsie]

Go ahead and laugh.

When you have some FACTS to back up YOUR claim; I’ll read them.

[Elsie]

I’m biased!

Bishop Fulton J. Sheen...

 

 

"A Plea For Intolerance" (1931)

 

Tolerance is an attitude of reasoned patience toward evil ... a forbearance that restrains us from showing anger or inflicting punishment.

 Tolerance applies only to persons ... never to truth.

 

America, it is said, is suffering from intolerance — it is not.

It is suffering from tolerance.

Tolerance of right and wrong, truth and error, virtue and evil, Christ and chaos.

Our country is not nearly so overrun with the bigoted as it is overrun with the broadminded.

To quote a famous guy named Elsie...

Aw...  shucks...
