Is the fire really better than the frying pan, then?

What year was your church founded? What version of the Bible is your choice? When was it written and why is that somehow not "the frying pan"?

Christ appointed the Apostles. The Holy Ghost guided them and helped them select their successors, starting with the replacement of Judas in the very first days of the Catholic (Universal), Apostolic Church. Their direct, lineal successors are the Bishops of the Catholic and Apostolic Church of today, led by the first among them, the Vicar of Christ, His Holiness Pope John Paul II.

Yes God forbid we should have Godless atheists turned in Catholics. Oh the horror!

What's your point, BC?

The $64,000 question is WHY they went to the Catholic church. Because, ultimately, a Catholic had the moxie to produce this film, when a thousand evangelical multimillionaires did not? That the Samaritan did what the Israelites refused to do?

Certainly it is far better to seek one's allegiance to God through a thousand laboriously learned technicalities of a "proper biblical faith," than to place one's simple salvational trust in the person of Jesus Christ. (irony)
