I’m sorry if our tinyness offends you.

I guess it does seem a little peculiar driving past all those nice Protestant and formerly Catholic churches with their nice furnishings and nice people with their fun activities and warm cozy bible studies and youth activities and field trips and bingos and pot luck dinners and friendships and smart pastors.

But on the other hand it is comforting to know that our tiny cult is doing all it can to reunite with and strengthen the church as it was before it was attacked by the thousands of apostates from the end of the 50’s to the present day. We thus if properly united are a part of the ONLY church on earth, that which goes from today all the way back to its beginning on the day of Pentecost in the room with Mary and the twelve and including the thousands of proclaimed saints such as Bernard, Francis, Athanasius, Ignatius of Antioch, Therese of Avila and on and on.

We could use some more brethren so daniel1212 I would like to invite you to join us. We could use some more studious folk like you to dig into history and connect the dots.

You just have to consider that your idea of authority and structure may have some problems with it and that the church as the Holy Ghost has protected and guided it throughout history to this day is different than what you thought it was.

I’m glad you are so fascinated by our tiny cult! Send mail when you’re ready.

'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone,
' it means just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less.'

'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many different things.'

'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master - that's all.'

So by whose or what authority do you sit in judgment on your church and it’s leaders?

Does (or did) the Holy Spirit guide the college of cardinals in its selection of the pope?

Seems that I have not yet received an answer to either of those two questions.

Still awaiting your answer and I do not forget that I asked them. I remember that the answer is avoided at all costs by virtually every Catholics I have asked this of.

Ya da ya da, and so your soliloquy goes on, comforting yourself with your pathetic delusions, which vain recourse is a poor substitute for the multitude of refutations which are ignored, leaving you as one who is one of many elitist splinters who are even contrary to past papal teaching and above all, to the NT church as revealed in Scripture. A sad condition indeed. More iterations of Cath delusions will only make your damnation worse. May God yet grant you repentance unto the acknowledge of the Truth of Scripture, versus your fantasies
