The Holy Spirit always guides the Church into all truth.

So the Holy Spirit did not bother to inspire a teaching on selling indulgences in His Holy Word..but He inspired the church fathers to sell "get out of jail free " cards for pocket money??

This is a prime example why homosexuals and child abusers over run your church....you can not afford to admit you might have errored in even one small thing..or your whole deck of cards collapses..a church built on the opinion of men collapses

Excuse me? The Church has often apologized for things its members have done, and every Catholic admits that even the Pope errs. Especially in areas like the child abusers, we have long admitted that the Bishops truly did a horrendous job with those issues. The fact of the matter though, is that our Church has not collapsed. It has been here for 2000 years now, and is showing no signs of going away. How long has your house of cards been here?

LOL, if the Calvins only knew how true it was.

Matthew 5:39 But I tell you, Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also.

Luke 6:29 If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic.

just ignore them
