esquirette WROTE:
All of those Presbyterian groups respect and adhere to the Westminster Confession, just as all the RC groups adhere to and respect the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

verdadjusticia ANSWERS:

A catechism contains very basic material for the neophyte. They are published by private companies and can contain errors. Catechisms are not infallible, by itself it is useless without a final authority.

The difference in “adherence” to doctrines between Catholicism and so-called Protestantism, is that Protestants can and do CHANGE (don’t adhere for very long) what they “adhere” to. Catholics can’t change doctrines, they have not changed doctrines in 2000. Once the Catholic church has decided on a matter infallible, there is no change.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church is not produced by a public company, but by the Catholic Church. It is considered to be error free. Do you know of any errors in it?
