The Judeo Christian God is certainly not synonymous with the Catholic church. The teachings and deeds are worlds apart. In fact they are opposite ends of the moral spectrum.

Now THAT shows a lack of knowledge of the Catholic Church. May I recommend taking a look at this site:

as well as this one:

http://www.catholic.com

Both can clear up some obvious misconceptions about the Church. Obviously, you would have to have an open mind (or at least half-open) if you are to get anything out of it. But they can both be real eye-openers, even for Catholics themselves. One of the real crimes that has gone on in the Church for the past 40 years is the lack of real solid teaching on the Doctrines of the Faith. If we had been better educated on the Church, we would be able to explain things quite a bit better, and understand more of our own Faith.

Most of our church is exCatholics. I don't need to read whitewashed material but I'm sure you meant well.

I stand by my statement. I don't know how you can still defend this "church".

I am not a Catholic and never will be. I can't be since your teachings are not Biblically aligned. So don't include me in your idea of "Faith".
