To: Psalm 73
But then, like I stated aerlier, there are aspects of other denominations that I'm not comfortable with, either.

For some reason that I fail to understand, G-d decided to leave His church in the hands of sinful people. I'm going to have to talk to Him about that when I get to heaven. Clearly if He had asked me how to run the universe, it would be much better. </sarcasm> (Really, it was sarcasm. No need for the thunder. I was joking. JOKING. OK? Alright, I'M SORRY. Quit with the thunder!)

Anyway, as long as the person holds Jesus as the center I am happy with their faith and their practice of it. Hopefully, the other person will think the same way about me. When that day comes, Jesus' prayer will be answered, "That they all may be one."

Of course there will be people who worship their denomination more than they worship the Christ whom their denomination was established to serve. That will happen within the RC church and without it. We mess up and worship the thing rather than the giver even when G-d gives it to us with His own hand. Remember the Bronze Serpent? If I could remain focused on Jesus, then I would have no problem with anything I have ever known in the RC church.

Shalom.
