Go back and read your own posts with tiki and you will see my point. If you do not,there is no reason to discuss things with you because you and several other "superior" people on this thread only wish to do what the old Greek sophists did. I would have hoped that all that believe that God sent His only begotten Son to bring us back to the Father would not use techniques that Jesus clearly did not like.

Jesus said He was the Truth,He said the devil was a liar from the beginning. Specious arguments and statements cloak untruthfulness.

Catholics believe in a transcendent,triune God that is always with us and consequently are more likely to always be aware that we live in a natural world encompassed by the supernatural one. I believe this accounts for many of our differences and as a Catholic it would be disingenuous of me to not say I believe the Catholic Church possesses the fullness of truth. But believing that does not discount my admiration of many of the non-Catholics on this thread for trying to love and obey God as they know Him. I just wish they would stop belaboring the same old things,we need to work together for God,spiritually and temporally,we have many enemies today.God bless us all.

Great, if you believe in God, then prove it by doing what He told us to do, NOT try to communicate with the dead. Pray only to God. Do the Jews pray to anyone but God? NO. Hint: there is a reason for this. Pagans pray to and worship their ancestors. We are told to NOT be like them. You either believe what God said or you don't, it's your choice, you are the one- along with God's reputation, that is harmed by it.

This ring hollow from someone who belongs to a church that says it is the "one true church" and makes many other arrogant claims for itself. Go back a little ways in this thread and read some of Conservative til I die's posts where he suggests that Holy Spirit resides only in and salvation is only it the RC church. He still hasn't answered my questions about that. I wonder why?
