“I am not so much anti-Catholic as I am pro-Jesus, pro-Bible, and pro-Truth.”
No. If that were true you would not have said much of what you said.
“You my friend are free to believe what you want, so may I. I just prefer to talk directly with the Father and the Son without anyone’s assistance.”
So you claim to talk to the Father without the Son’s assistance? John 14:6. Once again we see that you apparently aren’t as pro-Jesus, pro-Bible, and pro-Truth as you claim.
My claim is simple, follow Christ. Maybe you should read the Bible more since the Father and the Son are one and yes I do talk to the Son to get to Father, just not the human flavor of the day from Rome.
You can let this go if you want. You will not convert me, nor I you, but I will say whatever I want/believe with impunity...
