"I do understand Christianity however."

That's quite a statement to make, as scholars of all denominations continue to debate the meaning of Scriptural passages and, hopefully, their application to one's daily life.

Even the Catholic Church admits that, while it has the greatest deposit of faith, that no one can comprehend God completely in this life, or the next. The creature cannot be greater than the One Who created all things. God is infinite in majesty, in power, in all virtue, in love, for He is Love Itself.

Actually protestants do understand god. They have remade him in their own image and his will is bent towards theirs. It is the rest of us that do not understand God, the Creator of the universe Ex-Nihlo. He is to great to be understood by our puny brains. And I am grateful to have a God that is to far above me to understand fully.

Christianity is about believing/following Jesus. It's not that complicated if the texts are read.

Do I claim to know more than God? Nope. no way. not even close.

BTW....the catholic church does not have the greatest deposit of faith. Please....the arrogance of catholicism again.

Christians are all filled with the same Holy Spirit. We do have different gifts so we can accomplish what God wants.
