Enough. The priest is not another Christ.

You must have skimmed post 252, you posted back so fast you could not have read it.

How do you do with Christ's exhortation to “Eat His Flesh” and “Drink His Blood” and when you don't do it because you think it to be a fable or parable or whatever how do you square that with him saying you “will not have life within you”.

Oh I know you are with the John 6:60-66 crowd because “His Words too hard” and “how can we do this” ESPECIALLY because you have no ordained priests to consecrate anything.

“How do Mary and the saints listen to perhaps millions of prayers at the same time? Now that they are in heaven do they now have the attribute of omniscience? Because God has this attribute we know that he can hear and respond to millions of simultaneous prayers. But do Mary and the saints have this same ability?”

Many enthusiastic thanks for this observation. Why didn’t I think of that?

To God alone be ALL the glory! Man is less than nothing apart from His grace.

you do continually ignore what a faithful Catholic tells you as you bear false witness against Catholics daily on these threads.

Anyone who is told directly and specifically that Catholics do not do what you say they do — and then repeat the lie is bearing false witness.

I’m still waiting for your thoughts on Quix’s UFOTheology... silence is concurrence I am assuming.

Must be Quix’s bibically derived space aliens doing a voodoo dance on FR.

So, the fact that Paul thought he was on par with Peter means that he was?

Well, that settles it.

Why did no one think of that until Luther?

Damn, all those ignoramuses over the centuries!

If you are . . . unaware . . . . of that serious bunch of realities, perhaps . . . there’s a similar lack of awareness in religious matters.

I don't believe in conspiracy theories. And please don't link my religious belief with them.

Welllll, I’ve studied globalism—in their own-in-house publications—since 1965 . . . in my job as acting Director of the Univ Library Special Collections Dept.

Enjoy your ignorance on the subject.

You will far too soon observe the connection satan makes between such things. I wish it were not so.

On the other hand, God is still in control and working all things together for HIS KINGDOM’S GOOD.

The choice is either acting like a Pope yourself, or doing what Saint Paul did—”I submitted ... “ Galatians 2:2

God is a god of order, hence, Christ chose a successor to shepherd the flock. Or we can simply run amuck in a million different interpretations. As interpretations keep proliferating (Black Theology!) with grave consequences (President Obama!) Protestantism looks less and less tenable.

BTW,

Shrillery, Obumma, George Soros . . . a McChurian funder . . . and Ted Turner . . . and the Rockefellers . . . and Scuba Teddy . . . and Nancy Puhlousey . . . et al

love it when folks avoid looking behind the curtain.

Check out the

GEORGIA GUIDESTONES

AND ASK YOURSELF—how much movement has our society undergone in the last 50 years toward those goals????

I’d love to see your answer to that one.

It is a fact that Jesus quoted extensively from books of the Old Testament that have been rejected by protestants but that have always been part of the “Catholic” Bible.

Would you please reference a few, say 5 or so, of these quotes? Thanks.

These “tele-evangelist’s” that you speak of are only a blimp on the radar.

LOL. Blimps are huge.

More than one or two TV evangelists AVOIDS looking like they’ve been overdoing the fasting.

Logic, like common sense, are for people who don't know Truth...

How sad that you oppose against one another logic (i.e. reason) and truth.

Reason leads us to truth. God didn't give us minds as some sort of temptation, some sort of trap to lead us to damnation.

Thanks for elucidating so succinctly the evangelical adversion to reason.

Sounds like something one would be taught on day one in a cult.

Y’all make it persistently very tempting to label the RC edifice a cult.

Has all the trappings . . . layers thick.
