“Grace is a participation in the life of God" (Catechism of the Catholic Church, §1997)

This quote doesn't seem to align up with what the Word tells us. The Bible shows that it is a GIFT of God; NOT a 'participation in the life of God'.

It's clear to me that a false dichotomy has been set up here, and I ain't even a Roman Catholic. The gift of grace will bring a person into participation in the life of God. I.e. sanctification. Protestants and Catholics agree on this one.

Even Islamics are protesting these new found "facts". This is simply propaganda meant to bring down all religions by rewriting history whilst giving france and hollywood a financial boost.
