Nothing I said and nothing I believe contradicts anything in the Bible. I am, after all, Catholic. If Catholicism surprises you that must be because you spend too much time running away the the scripture rather than toward it, with your “dividing”.

Nothing I said and nothing I believe contradicts anything in the Bible

Ha! Well you can start with the Catholic Church's teaching that it is Israel. Where is that found in the Bible?

Where’s the teaching in the Bible that Mary was born without sin?

Or that she remained a virgin her entire life?

Or that she was assumed and did not see death?

Or that we are to pray to her for anything?

Or that people are to be canonized as saints and prayed to?

Where are the instructions to the church in selecting Peter’s successors?
