To: Dr. Eckleburg
"The RCC teaches that its priestcraft are made up of men who are an "alter Christus," "another Christ.""

For the one millionth time, your marginal English skills and a link to an errant priest do not constitute Catholic dogma. The priests act in the place of Christ during the Mass, not unlike James Caviezel in The Passion of the Christ. No one believes he actually is Christ and no one says he is unless they are misinformed or lying.

To: Natural Law; Dr. Eckleburg
"The priest is, indeed, another Christ, or in some way, he is himself a continuation of Christ." (Pope Pius XI, Encylical on the Priesthood)

[The priest] offers his humanity to Christ, so that Christ may use him as an instrument of salvation, making him as it were into another Christ. Pope John Paul II

Words mean things
