>>My assumption<<

Catholics sure do build a lot on assumption don't they.

>>The Statue of Laocoon is a treasured piece of art that is from around 27BC to 62 AD.<<

Deuteronomy 7:5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.

Exodus 34:13 But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:

Do you see any "conserve" in those commands of God?

>>Regardless, you do nothing but badmouth the Church. Why?<<

Because they directly disobey God as shown above. Why would you follow an organization that disobeys God?

>>I will ask you to contemplate 2 Timothy 2:24.<<

I will ask you to not try to present a false understanding of scripture by stopping at that verse and not continuing on.

2 Timothy 2:25 Opponents must be gently instructed, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth, 26 and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, who has taken them captive to do his will.

Really pray about it asking the Holy Spirit to reveal the lies of the organization you defend. "Escape from that trap of the devil".

yup, you're right...the church should have destroyed, melted down that ancient artifact...no reason to have something like that in the VATICAN MUSEUM.

we could then be compared to the Taliban who destroyed those ancient statutes of Buddah that they declared offensive to islam.....great idea CB!!
