I need to discuss some things and have no way.

May I suggest...

[Elsie]

Do you ever have time to worry about your own soul, or does the Catholic bashing consume all that you have?

There is STILL a little time left over at the end of the day to beat her husband.

[Elsie]

You are skirting and running from the clear implication of the question I posed.

Says the man who skirts the clear teaching of Catholic leaders that have been POSTED in this thread.

Do you not realize you have NO credibility here?

[Elsie]

I does.

[Elsie]

...and public schools, scouts, protestant denomination clerics ALL surpass Catholic clergy in those kind of offenses.

Of COURSE they do!

They are NOT members of GOD's True Church!!!

[Elsie]

I’m saved and it isn’t the Catholic church that did it.

That 'church' teaches you CAN'T know if you are saved!

[Elsie]

Even if neither is done, the church makes no comment whatsoever as to the repose of one's soul.

Golly; I hope none of those ignorant PROTs have the audacity to post yet MORE Catholic teaching on this subject!

--Catholic_Wannabe_Dude(I'm avoiding dealing with the stuff they've already posted now!)

[Elsie]

Ay, laddie!

100% commando; too!

[ZinGirl]

“There’s still real differences...”

Yes...like proper subject-verb agreement, Rick.

:)

[metmom]

Most Catholics don’t.

[Gamecock]

If they covered it up!
(Which is what Rome did for the rapists, and that has ALWAYS been my point)

[Elsie]

...Christ would not have let her err in that matter.....

Wanna BET???

Matthew 13:24-30

24 Another parable He put forth to them, saying: 
   “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field;  
25 but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. 

26 But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared.  
27 So the servants of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’
28 He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ 
   The servants said to him, ‘Do you want us then to go and gather them up?’  
29 But he said, ‘No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them.  
30 Let both grow together until the harvest, 
   and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, 
   “First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”

[Elsie]

...Christ would not have let her err in that matter...

I seem to recall something about SEVEN Catholic churches in Asia. I think John may have said something about them...

...God did not allow the scriptures to be in error either...

[Elsie]

Of what, I'm not sure, cause is sure isn't logic or reasoning.

...things hoped for.

[Elsie]

You know what they say - "Don't go away mad..."

[metmom]

That has ALWAYS been the point.

It’s been made time and again and time and again, it has received no recognition or even an acknowledgement that that is what the real issue is.

It appears that there is some level of delusion or deception in the minds of Catholics that prevents them from either of those two actions.

[JPX2011]

It’s been made time and again and time and again, it has received no recognition or even an acknowledgement that that is what the real issue is.

It's been acknowledged and recognized for what it is. Protestant deception. The real issue is that in order for protestants to maintain the lie that Catholics follow men and not Christ and His Church the protestant must insist that the sins of men must fundamentally alter our way of thinking about Christ and His promise to us. Thus proving it is the protestant who puts their faith in man and not God.

It is the protestant who allows their faith to be shaken by the failings of man. For the protestant the only choice to them for such things is either a) fire their leaders or b) move on and find another ecclesial community or c) start their own.

In short, the protestant will not rest until their concern-trolling has transformed some Catholic into a fellow traveler who exclaims "OMG! Some gay priest messed with a kid and other gays or gay-sympathizers in the Church conspired to cover it up. I must now now question the validity of the Eucharist.

So, we recognize. More than you think we do. We also recognize where such things come from and it's not from God.

>>What Pope was a child molester?<<

I'll give you the floor. Tell us how he only just lately found out about this from the news just like the rest of us. He has instructed his Eric er I mean assistant to look into the matter and possibly form a committee.

>>Do you hold these guys responsible for what Judas Iscariot did?<<

What congregation did they send Judas to or what part of the "organization" did they allow him to hold? Is Judas really the example Catholics use?
