Nothing in Catholicism denies the power of the Holy Spirit.
Next, their clerics are telling them how many "Hail Mary"s and "Our Father"s are necessary to gain forgiveness.
Not how it works at all.
The biggest frustration,for me, is that they insist that their Pope is the sole "Vicar of Christ", without apologies to the Throne of God in Heaven.
There is no conflict with the Throne of God and Heaven and the role of the Vicar of Christ.
“Next, their clerics are telling them how many “Hail Mary”s and “Our Father”s are necessary to gain forgiveness.”
“Not how it works at all.”
The willful ignorance is just staggering.
