Clearly - if that is what you believe - then the real problem is ignorance. Yours.

No, it is accurate. If you have sinned a sin, do you speak to God, or do you go to your Priest for your confession? When you go to Church, is it anywhere where two or three Christians are gathered, or is it in a building run by a Priest?
Either way, it’s utterly irrelevant to me. My criticism was mostly aimed at Protestants who insist there is no difference between them and Catholicism. These are essential points PROTESTANTS ought to agree on, but for some reason this is being forgotten for the sake of politics. The fact that so many Protestants are embracing the character arguments to support a candidate is quite disturbing.

Clearly that IS Catholicism. And I say that as someone who was raised Catholic. Went to parochial school through 12th grade. And stuff have many Catholic relatives. Catholics like to deny it in order to get Evangelicals not to bother them, but it is what it is.

Clearly that IS Catholicism. And I say that as someone who was raised Catholic. Went to parochial school through 12th grade. And still have many Catholic relatives. Catholics like to deny it in order to get Evangelicals not to bother them, but it is what it is.
