Acting offended is a pathetic and not too original way to try to hide the fact that your major catholic doctrines are man made and in many instances are in direct opposition to the Bible.
My advice to you is; learn some manners and actually READ the Holy Bible.

I'm not acting offended - I AM offended - and very highly so. Have you ever read the Catholic Catechism? No. Did you bother to check out Scott Hahn's website before responding(there)? No. And you won't afterwards, either. You're a close-minded bigot who wouldn't agree with any authority I cite.

The Catholic Church put together the Bible, a few hundred years after Christ. How did the Church, and Chrisitanity, exist without Holy Scripture. Oh yeah, Sacred Tradition. Ever wonder why no where in the Bible does it say that the Bible is the only authority we are to abide by? Duh!!!

And while I'm at it, regarding "man-made laws", Christ said to Peter (after he made him the first pope) "What you bind on earth will be bound in heaven; what is loosed on earth shall be loosed in heaven." Christ must not have read the Bible, though, huh?
