Tsk, tsk. So the scriptures boils down to just "love one another"? Of course not. On the other hand, we are most certainly specifically commanded by Jesus Himself to "love one another." This peristent need for certain religious elements to denounce Catholic practice as "demonic" is a particularly noxious violation of that commandment.

Oh Really!!! So just when is telling the truth to someone a violation of any commandment??? Is bearing false witness and promoting a pagan rituals as acceptable Christian practices an act of love in your church??? Perhaps you should meditate upon the following:

"Love rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth." [I Corinthians 13:6]

"A lying tongue hates those who are afflicted by it, and a flattering mouth works ruin" [Proverbs 26:28]

Where there is no truth there is no love, and you cannot have love without the truth.

Is the worship of idols the worship of demons, according to scripture??? Yes or No --

You can answer that question in truth or in love. Either way it should be the same answer.

You seem to believe that you have a lock on Christian truth. It's clear from your demeanor, however, that you do not.
