you just proved my point.

A quote out of context? Check.

A short quote from a very long and nuanced document? Check.

A quote from a 500 year old document? Check.

A quote that equates a legal document that applies to a local problem as being the same as a universal dogmatic one? check.

And let’s just ignore Matthew 25...

Micah 6:8

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.

John 6:28-29
Then they asked him, "What must we do to do the works God requires?

 Jesus answered, "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent."

1 John 3:21-23
Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him.
And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.

James 1:27

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

Thanks; Catholics; for giving these Scriptures to the World!

[metmom]

The Council of Trent is simply a *500 year old document*?

You mean it’s not valid any more? From the church that never changes?

Catholics do the same thing with Scripture and with a straight face expect us to accept their cherry picked Scripture verses.

So why is that a problem when a non-Catholic does it but not when a Catholic does it?
