“So, Roman Catholics pray to the created, not the Creator, and then make the claim that somehow the Archangel Michael is God?”

Catholics do not claim that Michael is God. Jehovah’s Witnesses claim that he is Jesus. If you think that Catholics believe Michael the Archangel is God, then that shows how little knowledge of Catholicism you have.

“And this from people who subscribe to the “Church” that claims to have given us Scripture?”

Yes they did. It’s funny that you put “Church” in quotation marks, because it is an actual Church, unlike the various ecclesiastical communities that you may or may not belong to.

“Is it any wonder the nature, extent, and vileness of the pederasty that goes on in the cult of the Roman Catholic Church!”

Yes, the pederasty is less in extent and vileness than other organizations. And it’s funny that you call the Church a cult.

“And there are those who would claim Protestants are heretics.”

Cause they are.

Terminological consistency requires that a Protestant to be a real Christian heritic first have been a Catholic.

Let me try this again --

So, Roman Catholics pray to the created, not the Creator

The post says basically, 'this prayer is good for those coming into this discussion' -- and it's a prayer to the Archangel Michael. Roman Catholics pray to a created being INSTEAD of praying directly to God?

"Our Father...."

No one else. Just God.

Please -- focus.

So.. Roman Catholics, according to your post (or at least some of them) pray to angels. This is heretical. Do you not see that? When Christ taught his disciples to pray, He didn't say, "pray like this: Archangel Michael/Mary/St. So-and-So, patron saint of Widget makers...." NO!
