You trash our Church as “b.s.,” and then you cast yourself as the voice of tolerance? Sorry, but it doesn’t work that way. Again, I say, good riddance to you. We’re better off without your ilk. As Jesus taught, “Give not that which is holy to dogs; neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turning upon you, they tear you.”
Never once did I make a deragoatory comment towards you or Catholics. A lot of my family is Catholic. I simply had issues with the church being too domineering and interefering too much in everyday life and trying to control the government. I have the same posistion on the church as I do towards the government, which is libertarian. I think faith is important, yet personal. Faith is between ourselves and God. I personally do not believe in middle men clergy telling me what I can and can’t do and that is God’s will. God, Jesus, or the Bible for that matter never make mention of this.
If people prefer this than thats ok I respect their viewpoint. I just personally don’t agree with it.
A previous poster probably best described your attitude.
And he’s better off as a Christian protestant, knowing that the true faith is faith in Jesus Christ and the true church is the body of Christ, not a denomination, not the Catholic church, not any church—only the Body of Christ, the true believers who know Him as Lord and Savior.
