To: Elsie; Steelfish

The difference between the list you posted here and the people Steelfish cited is that the Popes you listed didn’t teach a different doctrine than other “good” Popes. The people Steelfish pointed out do have different interpretations of Scripture and hence different doctrines.

I guess there’s a choice here: be associated with a Church that has taught the same thing but has had evil Popes or associate with people who are (at least) outwardly “good” but teach different things about Scripture. I’d rather have the doctrinal consistency speaking for myself.

(And yeah I get the irony of posting that on the same thread that claims to prove Popes taught differently re Mary before.)

The OP is false, as has already been demonstrated in the first 200 posts of this thread. Now this thread is just another typical FR anti-Catholic pile-on. I’m just posting this for Steelfish’s benefit (and the benefit of any other reasonable lurker). I don’t expect to change your mind or the mind of any other anti-Catholic here.

That's good.

Which ones, because I found lots of posts maligning non-Catholics, attempting to smear non-Catholics through guilt by association, defending tradition, posting inane images, but precious few who even attempted to discuss the topic of the article, much less demonstrate it to be false.

I'll reread any you provide to support your contention to see what I missed.

The people Steelfish pointed out do have different interpretations of Scripture and hence different doctrines.

And Catholic 'doctrine' has SHIFTED thru the years: different doctrine; hence, the TITLE of this thread:

Condemned as Heretical by 2 Popes in the 5th and 6th Centuries,

No; it has not been demonstrated.
