“A correction is in order here. Catholicism is Bible based; it isn’t based on nmh’s interepretation of Scripture.”

No, it’s not a matter of “interpretation”.

The Bible is rather CLEAR on teachings ... for those who wish to learn and live them.

Indeed. So you believe these CLEAR teachings from the Bible?

• confess to another
• baptism with water now saves
• stand fast and hold the traditions which you were taught whether by word or our epistle
• this is my body
• whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven
• man is justified by works and not by faith alone
• faith without works is dead
