“Are you aware that you are talking to a practicing Catholic?
Are you also aware that he is NOT the author of the thread?”

Thanks metmom, sorry Cronos, I thought you were the anti-Catholic.
Let us keep talking about the faith. the anti-Catholic regulars at FR need our help. Daniel is trying to defend “faith alone”, following a heresy that came from a man who rejected the true faith.
Daniel, the Church never taught “Sola Fide”, your pride
sticking with a heretic. Post some of Luther’s quotes, a
holy man, no way.
Paul rejected the true faith? Who knew?
Ephesians 2:1-10 2 And you were dead in the trespasses and sins 2 in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— 3 among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ— by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
