Atheists are not supposed to believe in GOD and Agnostics claim NOT to know!!
Nope.
With Catholics like verga, terycarl and rasputin among the ranks, it should be 110%!!!
Catholicism teaches its adherents to skip the worthily/unworthily part and just go ahead and do the damnable cannibalism thing, believing they eat the body, blood, soul and DIVINITY in the catholic wafer. One of satan’s biggest tricks is the blindness catholiciism promotes regarding the symbology of the Passover, the Passover Lamb, and the celebration of Salvation by the Lamb Slain form the foundation of the world. And it could be so easily swept away if only a catholic would read Jesus’s own explanation of John 6:53 in the verses that follow!
They must be; as I've seen many times on FR; poorly catechized.
Why can't Rome TEACH it's material better?
Perhaps ISTEP testing will be seen in the future.
True.
They'll have to claim they were taught WRONG stuff.
Believing Rome so strongly; they never decided that they would NEED to become like a Berean; and actually do research for them selves.
Makes me wonder how they determine who to vote for.
No I follow the Bible as correctly intterpreted
They are led ... that’s why most of them vote democrat.
Have you ever bothered to read past verse 53, to see what Jesus said to His disciples regarding the episode with the literalist that had just occurred? Maybe you can get your priest to read it to you ...
This is EASY; you silly Prot!
You listen to what the national headquarters of each party tells you, and then pull the lever!
All this talking back and forth about politics leaves me in a stupor.
I'll leave the analysis up to the EXPERTS and vote for whomever they tell me.
I may even consult my votary beads for reassurance.
LOL ... you’re on a role old cow.
Thanks for posting this!
Now our FR Catholic friends will start fighting amongst themselves and we Prots can sit back and eat our popcorn in peace!
I know your anger in nit being able to receive the Eucharist given your separation from the Church that God Instituted to perform the sacrifice of the mass. But it’s ok. I know you place an emphasis on the literal truth of the Bible.except when you dont want to.
My fault; shudda started sooner this morning.
“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...”
So Elsie, you don’t believe that Jesus is God? Are you Mormon and believe that God the Father is one god, Jesus the Son is a separate god, and the Holy Spirit is another god entirely?
. . . within Mormonism, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost are not said to be one in substance or essence; instead, they remain three separate beings, or personages, completely united in will and purpose, as one God.

This didn't come out right; but if I ask the RM to remove the post; y'all would wonder what nasty thing I posted.
So; I'll just edit this in full view...
Virtually 99.9999999999 of all Protestants do NOT believe in the continued virginity of... Rome's Mary!
Luke 1:26-38 Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)
26 And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth,
27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.
28 And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
29 Who having heard, was troubled at his saying, and thought with herself what manner of salutation this should be.
30 And the angel said to her: Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found grace with God.
31 Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus.
32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever.
33 And of his kingdom there shall be no end.
34 And Mary said to the angel: How shall this be done, because I know not man?
35 And the angel answering, said to her: The Holy Ghost shalt come upon thee, and the power of the most High shalt overshadow thee. And therefore also the Holy which shalt be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
36 And behold thy cousin Elizabeth, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren:
37 Because no word shalt be impossible with God.
38 And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
(shall / shalt is NOT 'asking' Mary if she'll do something for GOD)
(This ain't CONSENTING)
57"As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats Me, he also will live because of Me. 58"This is the bread which came down out of heaven; not as the fathers ate and died; he who eats this bread will live forever." 59These things He said in the synagogue as He taught in Capernaum.60Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this said, "This is a difficult statement; who can listen to it?" 61But Jesus, conscious that His disciples grumbled at this, said to them, "Does this cause you to stumble?â¦
62"What then if you see the Son of Man ascending to where He was before? 63"It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life. 64"But there are some of you who do not believe."
17. God the Father imparted to Mary his fruitfulness as far as a mere creature was capable of receiving it, to enable her to bring forth his Son and all the members of his mystical body.
18. God the Son came into her virginal womb as a new Adam into his earthly paradise, to take his delight there and produce hidden wonders of grace.
God-made-man found freedom in imprisoning himself in her womb. He displayed power in allowing himself to be borne by this young maiden. He found his glory and that of his Father in hiding his splendours from all creatures here below and revealing them only to Mary. He glorified his independence and his majesty in depending upon this lovable virgin in his conception, his birth, his presentation in the temple, and in the thirty years of his hidden life. Even at his death she had to be present so that he might be united with her in one sacrifice and be immolated with her consent to the eternal Father, just as formerly Isaac was offered in sacrifice by Abraham when he accepted the will of God. It was Mary who nursed him, fed him, cared for him, reared him, and sacrificed him for us.
Yes; folks; can't you discern that this IS the Lord's body?
Do you see any hanging chads?
