They have not and i keep records. But why don't you answer those questions awaiting actual answers? .
I can’t even remember the name of the thread, something like the “Neverending” thread ran for years back about 1999.
Never heard of it or you in my many years and 9,518 replies. And honestly, as a former weekly and serving RC, the RC arguments are actually an argument against being a RC. But Mormons are about the fastest growing cult, so it not surprising Rome get a few, and they both operate out of sola ecclesia (the church is the supreme authority, not Scripture).
I dare you to discuss your theology and see how many non-Catholic Christians agree with every doctrine and tenet, that is why there are so many denominations.
Which is not a valid argument, as not only do RCs define “Protestant” so broadly that you can place a Unitarian/Mormon/Watchtower 747 in it, but the issue is whether Scripture being the supreme standard for Truth as the wholly inspired Word of God is the means for Biblical unity, esp. on the practical level where it counts, or whether the church is as being assuredly infallible, and whether either means prevent unholy disunity.
Meanwhile, I dare you to discuss your theology with me and see how many Catholic Christians agree with every doctrine and tenet.
Which we know they don't.
There's this for starters.....
THE RITES OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH — There are many!
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-religion/2542173/posts
Not to mention the wide variety of beliefs FRoman Catholics espouse on this forum alone.
There's one former posting RC who did not believe in hell, but rather soul annihilation. There's one the other day who was stating that souls pre-exist the body and are awaiting a body to inhabit.
There are those who absolutely agree that outside the RCC there is no salvation, while others call anyone who points that out *poorly catechized*.
There are the trads, the sedevacantists, and other splinter groups which call themselves Catholics.
Every man his own little pope.
Catholicism is no more unified than the Protestants Catholics condemn.
