Thanks for the ping.

Yes, I saw your response to drstevej. You seemed to have carefully studied Roman Catholic theology and come to the conclusion, especially regarding the Eucharist based upon your intial experience, that their doctrines were correct. However, I found this statement by you as quite odd considering your new Roman Catholic position.

"You aren't sure what you believe and the more you read the more you realize you have spent your life trusting in the presuppositions of people who lived 500 years ago. "

I'm not quite sure what you meant by that statement but if we are considering the "presuppositions of people" isn't that what the Reformation was all about?

I'm not sure what a ping is.

Yes, that is exactly what the Reformation was all about. In fact, Luther lamented later that now there was a theology for every head. Everyone's presupositions trumped the truth promised by Christ and preserved in His Church. And now chaos reigns. Drive down the road to work today and chech out how many churches you see. He prayed that we be ONE, so that the world would know that the Father sent the Son. I wonder why they aren't real impressed with Christianity. Could it be the chaos and division?
