Have you ever noticed that with too many add-on’s on your computer eventually it will slow it down....or you get tangled up with what exactly which add-on does what you need? ......It’s the same with catholicism........layers and layers of add-ons.

Not "add-ons," but paths to Christ. Have you ever read about the lives of the canonized saints? There are over 10,000 of them. If so, do you find them confusing? Some speak more simply than others. No one in Catholicism is trying to confuse you. Depth is not confusion.

Could you give scripture reference to sanctioning "canonized saints". I don't remember reading where the apostles taught that. They considered all believers saints.

I've read the Bible.

Does that count for anything?


Ecclesiastes 9:5
For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
