strawman alert, strawman alert....
history is the key though...even today, when we live in times that politically charged...we true american conservatives can and do, refer the the countries founding fathers, their documents and what they believed in a what actions they took...no one with any real sense, argues against that...
but then, the same applies to the church fathers, who lived and breathed life into the church, by their words, thoughts, and deeds, their adherence to the three legged stool of the the word, sacred tradition and the teach church....
some folks refuse to see it..or do, and refuse to acknowledge the historicity stands out and proves the catholic church is the one Jesus created....much to their own loss...despite their brave words...that usually just entail some version of “i just need the bible, jesus and me”...
And the divorce rate among Catholics is how much better than average?
