Aren't all faiths defined by human men, interpreting something written by human men?

[Hermann the Cherusker]

The Catholic faith is not based upon interpretations of the Bible. We consider that it existed prior to the Bible, which was written over time during the first century, while the faith already existed.

The Catholic Faith is based upon the teachings of Christ to the Apostles, and the teachings of the Apostles to all the peoples of the world. From there it has been handed down intact by each successive generation of the heirarchy and of Catholic parents.

The Catholic Faith is a Divine Revelation from Almighty God. It is proved by the miracles wrought by Christ and his sucessors, foremost among them Christ's Resurrection from the Dead, but not excluding even so trifling a matter as the annual liquification of the blood of St. Januarius (San Gennaro in Italian) in Naples or the Eucharistic Miracle of Lanciano. If it were defined by human men, we would be worshipping ourselves and our own opinon.

Short answer: no. You are not the center of the universe. Deal with it.
