(MarkBsnr) "you may wish to consider what Scripture is. It is what we wrote as an accompanying manual for the teachings of the Church."

Go easy on him Doctor. He may be a little off on his chronology, and his facts but he has the "accompanying" role right.

Scripture definitely takes a back seat to the Catechism and the Code Of Canon Law. All you need to know is contained in those two volumes plus a few "infallible" pronouncements of the Popes which haven't yet made it into those " Catholic Bibles". Of course you need an army of "experts" to interpret them for you.

It is best to surrender your will and intellect to the Magisterium and simply "go along to get along".

It is best to surrender your willful pride to Christ and return to the fullest measure of His Gifts, the Holy Sacraments.

Amen. Do you have any pictures of bats or other vermin we might post since that, too, appears to be what passes for RC apologetics?

Hello Reggie.

Nice to see that you’re lurking in the wings.

Yep, it’s right that you submit to the Church of Jesus or else you will submit to the church of men.
