Not a Catholic problem but a cultural one. There are many Catholics that are “unchurched” since the q950s, one of the reasons many are duped into joining evangelical sects with their slick talk and bibliolatry.

You really don't know do you! Jesus said to take the Passover in remembrance of Him as the Passover lamb ... ever heard the phrase 'lamb slain from the foundation of the world'? Guess Who that IS. And you can know for sure that Jesus is placing Himself in the role because of what He tells His disciples as He passes the last cup in the Passover celebration to them.

Ignorance is the only defense catholiciism offers the folks who refuse to see the Truth that the Word of God declares. Pleading ignorance before the Great White Throne will not be an acceptable excuse, especially given all the agape they've been offered only to spit upon it and call the offerers 'prots'.

Because the say so of an anonymous internet poster
isn't worth the electrons used to say *You're wrong.*

That's YOUR opinion!

Praying for such folks is all we who follow Christ can do, anything else encourages their delusions.

Sorry; but I'll have to go with what Catholic Scripture says.


2 Timothy 3:16-17 Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)

16 All scripture, inspired of God, is profitable to teach, to reprove, to correct, to instruct in justice,

17 That the man of God may be perfect, furnished to every good work.

So, I'll say a rosary for the folks here who can't handle the truth and leave it at that.

Too bad; as that won't help at all.


'Mary' told you guys to pray the rosary and, what can you show, that it has helped?

And it's very clear that most of the catholics on this board have not been trained in the original languages.

Original?

Heck; plain English is seemingly foreign; too!

So you, as a catholic, reject the Teaching of Jesus, found in the verses which follow verse 53, which followed the walking away of those who were such literalists that they took the catholic explanation and saw cannibalism. Choosing to be ignorant when the teaching of Jesus gives clear understanding is not a pretty picture of your religion of catholiciism.

It looks like about 15 percent of Catholics aren’t Catholic. I wonder if the pope is Catholic.

NEVER...we lament the FACT that they once had and accepted the truth and now, because of being led astray, they deny it....very sad.

ALWAYS...we Prots rejoice in the FACT that they once had accepted the voluminous amounts of Roman teachings and now, because of being led by the Spirit, they deny them and see the purity of the Bible, which Rome assembled BEFORE it went so far off the tracks.
Very wonderful!

Ya wanna rile the neighbors, of ALL types?

Place a big, stuffed bunny on a cross in your yard about a week before Easter!

You'll get hate mail (and maybe MORE) from most everyone who cannot see what the HOLYday has been morphed into.

16. God the Father gave his only Son to the world only through Mary. Whatever desires the patriarchs may have cherished, whatever entreaties the prophets and saints of the Old Law may have had for 4,000 years to obtain that treasure, it was Mary alone who merited it and found grace before God by the power of her prayers and the perfection of her virtues. “The world being unworthy,” said Saint Augustine, “to receive the Son of God directly from the hands of the Father, he gave his Son to Mary for the world to receive him from her.”

The Son of God became man for our salvation but only in Mary and through Mary.

God the Holy Spirit formed Jesus Christ in Mary but only after having asked her consent through one of the chief ministers of his court.

Paul - 1 Corinthians 11:27-29 King James Version (KJV)

27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.

29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

That pesky Paul.

But a vow of perpetual celibacy would not mean selfishness, but would be subject to will of the father is the vow was made under his headship, or the husband if married.

As you've pointed out, I; too; have seen NO Scripture where poor old Joseph agreed to anything like this.


Dang!

Now I'm calling Joseph OLD!

Gotta admire your tenacity in trying to justify contined use of the non-biblical phrase...

Mother of GOD.


Please!

Just TRY this a couple of times:

Hail Mary; Mother of Jesus; pray for us...

Hail Mary; Mother of Jesus; pray for us...

Hail Mary; Mother of Jesus; pray for us...



If your tongue did NOT catch fire and sizzle in your oral cavity; then GOD is probably not going to make you spend EXTRA years in purgatory for it.
