“Fullness of faith used by Catholics means faith in Catholiscism, not faith in God”.

Your anti-Catholicism is alive and well. Study the early Church fathers, starting with the Apostle Paul, who were all Catholics, and educate yourself. Anyone that has a knowledge of Christianity knows the truth. The Gospels came from the Catholic Church, not the Church from the Gospels. Jesus started one Church, the Catholic Church, not some 35,000 protestant churches, all of which were started by a mortal man. Most protestants believe the Last Supper and breaking bread and drinking wine is symbolic and nothing more and certainly don’t do this at each service. As a baptist I can never remember a time that the preacher had any type of communion after services. The center of each Catholic Mass is the Holy Eucharist, not a preacher hollering at you and saying you’re going to hell if you don’t change your ways.

Wow, you sure seem to have a lot of hate for common Christians!

Your anti-Catholicism is alive and well

Yes it is, thanks to your strange posts spewing hate for all that are not Catholic.

Not to mention your skewed view of Christianity.

Study the early Church fathers, starting with the Apostle Paul, who were all Catholics

There were no Catholics in the first century, just Christians.

I have studied Paul extensively, unfortunately the Catholic church doesn't seem to think much of him

Anyone that has a knowledge of Christianity knows the truth.

Very true, that is why those that do reject the Catholic view of their tradition being EQUAL with scripture and all the extra-Biblical rituals. Such as I mentioned a priest being "another Jesus" in order to serve communion.

Jesus started one Church, the Catholic Church

Still stuck on that, huh?

Jesus did start one church. It is comprised of all born again saved Christians who have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It is NOT an organization called Catholicism.

Oh and that 35,000 talking point is like poking holes in a fish. It's been discredited as just a dig at OTC (Other Than Catholic) Christians.

Most protestants believe the Last Supper and breaking bread and drinking wine is symbolic and nothing more

You could be right, I don't keep that close tabs on Protestants.

Most Christians take communion as commanded by Jesus back when He walked the earth.

And they DON'T have a priest change into "another Jesus" as the Catholics do. Quite un-Biblical not to mention un-Christian.

As a baptist I can never remember a time that the preacher had any type of communion after services

Perhaps you got there too late. I once attended a Church that served Communion every morning. And it was before the regular services on Sunday. They also served it periodically during the services also.

The center of each Catholic Mass is the Holy Eucharist, not a preacher hollering at you and saying you’re going to hell if you don’t change your ways.

Well I am certainly sorry that your one bad experience with a Baptist church drove you to the Catholic church instead of into the arms of Jesus.

Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.--Revelation 3:20
Jesus is knocking at the door of your heart, will you open it and let Him in?
