Dear Darkwolf,
Well, I don't know whether your friend thinks she is Catholic or not.
However, for those of us not impressed by the Jesus Seminar, we take seriously the words of our Lord when he said,
"Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My heavenly Father.
"And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.
"I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven."
From this, it appears that JESUS thought He was founding a Church, and appointing Peter the keeper of the Keys thereto.
This is de fide teaching of the Catholic Church, absolutely binding on all Catholics.

Yes, I actually asked her "Don't you think you sound like a Protestant?" LOL If that's where she goes, fine, but I found it a bit confounding that the answer appeared to be in plain sight--if you don't like it, leave!
