Perhaps you could explain what you mean by that?

Born again believers have only accepted their own prideful sinful self serving interpretation of scripture. These born again hypocrites have Jesus on their lips but not in their heart. They would do well to read Mt 7:21
The Pope seems to believe Born Again Christians (prots) are separated brethren. Do you have it on higher authority that we will be damned?
It must be nice to see the hearts of believers and know who the hypocrites are.
It would bode well for these born again hypocrites to read MK 8:15 or PS 1i5 5:7 or PS 135:16.
Why would YOU quote verses condemning graven images?
At the final judgment will Jesus, when addressing these born again hypocrites, utter the same destiny for them as He did for Judas in MT 26:24? Terrible outcome for these born again unless some repentance is evidenced.
Sounds like you have been missinformed.
Born Again Christians believe In Acts 2:38. We acknowledge that we are sinners before a Holy God.
We acknowledge that we cannot save ourselves. Our self righteous acts are but filthy rags before a perfect God.
God sent His son to be a ransom, to pay for our sin, to do for us we could never do for ouselves.
We repent from our sinfull ways and believe that Christ paid our penalty in full on the cross for our sin, a perfect sacrifice accepted by God who Raised Him from the dead.
We believe that those who plead to God for salvation and trust, rely, accept only in Jesus's complete sacrifice and ressurection will be saved.
Those who have believed in Jesus as LORD and Savior must follow Him proclaiming the Gospel of Grace and seek after holiness in obedience and Love to Him who Saved us.
Truth - 1
Rome - 0
There is a God.
And just because there were other groups who didn't want him there, either, does not negate the fact that thousands of Anglicans protested Ratzinger's appearance at Westminster.
It would be well for you to accept Jesus as your savior!!
What does "accept Jesus as your savior", actually mean for you as a Catholic?
Can you show me documentation on the claim thousands of Anglicans protested the Pope’s presence at Westminster?
Were they there in person or did they send letters of protest or did they sign petitions?
Perhaps you could explain what you mean by that?
A picture is worth a thousand words.
Once again the focus is on the MESSAGE . REMEMBER Jn 6 65:66
Accept Jesus and reject the allure of Satan and his crowds
Do your own homework.
I read the news reports. So can you.
Oh, indeed.
How many Roman Catholics does Rome boast of again?
Your hew and cry of “racism” is invalid.
Just more shouting down of the messenger.
Because if your excerpt is “racist,” then Newt Gingrich’s recent comments about Obama’s “colonial mentality” are equally “racist.”
Which they weren’t.
Unfortunately, as a review of posting histories will confirm, some anti-Catholic FReepers find telling the truth unnecessarily constraining when attempting to bash or belittle the Church.
Repentance like John the Baptist comes before acceptance of Jesus as your savior.
You want to "ban lies???" Who arbitrates what idea is or is not a lie? Rome?
Good luck with that one.
Inquisition, here we come.
Unfortunately it appears the only standard you apply is that the story agree with your preconceived notion and prejudice. If the story satisfies this, the source and its reputation for truthfulness is inconsequential. All other sources, including the words of Christ and the Burning Bush are put off as Romanist Propaganda.
I mean, really, who are you going to believe, Dr. E or your own lying eyes?
Perhaps Dr. E doesn't understand what prejudice and racism really are. After all, the attitudes of the OPC toward the unelect are really no different at all from what Austen preaches against Africans. (Does anyone know how many, if any, Black OPCers there are?)
Unfortunately for you God does.
What say you?
“I read the news reports. So can you.”
I learned in the school of hard experience how unreliable news reports can be; it certainly depends on what news source, and whether that source is agenda-driven and/or “owned”.
In his encyclical “Atheistic Communism” by Pope Pius IX, written in the late 1930’s, he warned us about the complicity of the “fourth estate”. (He also warned us, even then, about the feminist movement)
Years of pro-life work and also waging war against terrible sex education in the public schools, and the effort to de-throne some of the miserable school board members was a great teacher for me about the questionable veracity of “news reports”.
I agree with you, wagglebee, that it was the moral issues that brought out the protesters in Great Britain. This is exactly what people like me encountered in our pro-life work, our city council meetings about the huge grants of city funds given to Planned Parenthood, about the damaging programs in the public schools. We knew who our adversaries were—including the local press.
People came to see the Pope. Thank God.
He was shown great courtesy. Thank God
No harm was done to him. Thank God.
Hank got the zot....
The pope is infallible, except when he’s not.
