You're a nutty one! Catholics don't believe works save. Catholics believe we are saved by faith, but as James CLEARLY pointed out in his New Testament letter, "faith without works is not faith at all"... So, by extension, without works, your faith is useless. Without meat, you can't have a hamburger. You can believe that bun, tomato, and ketchup is a hamburger and call it that and declare yourself "nourished" for the forseeable future... but it's not a hamburger and you'll be hungry twenty minutes later.

Please explain the Roman Catholic doctrine of salvation using the words "grace" and "faith" but without mentioning the non-biblical word "sacriment". Betcha can't.
