Even the stories in the Bible, like Jonah in the whale, for example, are not fully accepted, but just acknowledged as stories in the Bible.

It is RC scholarship that reduces such to being fables , not fundamental; evangelical scholarship.

If you say so. I don’t know that many Catholics. I was referring to the Protestants I know.

Lots of things are like that these days. Beliefs that we humans are causing Global Warming or that carbon dioxide is a dangerous pollutant are accepted without question.

But Bible stories? Not so much...probably because you can’t prove them to the skeptical’s five senses and rational mind.

Who are they to believe? You and your Bible and its stories about a guy who wants us to drink his blood?

Or their five senses and rational mind that see how the only thing “you believers” do is fight with each other about how everyone else has it wrong but you.

Honestly, in these times, we’re a scattered bunch of lambs and sheep, dangerously so. Can this be fixed or is it too late?

If you want to hear something “crazy”, at Garabandal, Mother Mary spoke of a coming correction Her Son, Jesus, has for us.

Not sure what to make of that, either, but I’m hopeful.
