    Catholicism has not changed the definition of Tradition for 2000 years. Anti-Catholics change the definition so it fits their presuppositions so they can accuse Catholics of spin. Mark 7:8-9 has nothing to do with the Traditions Paul tells us to keep. This is about the 20th time Mark 7 has...

    Ephesians 4 Refutes the Protestant "Proof Text" "All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work" (2 Tim. 3:16-17). This passage doesn't teach formal...

    2 Timothy 3 [14] But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, (Tradition) knowing from whom you learned it (Magisterium) [15] and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings which are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in...

    I reference Protestant historians all the time, which you reject anyway. What you cannot prove, using "Bible alone", is that Tradition and the Magisterium are not necessary. Scripture, Tradition, and the Magisterium is the biblical rule of faith, all working together, all in harmony. .One is not...

    That is called junk history. Lies by omission, and plain lies. "...So what was the real reason William Tyndale was condemned? Was translating the Bible into English actually illegal? The answer is no. The law that was passed in 1408 was in reaction to another infamous translator, John Wycliff...

    Paul is talking about Gnostic heretics, not bishops. "fierce wolves will come in among you" means they were not internal, they came in from outside. Paul, John, Ignatius wrote in opposition to these people. Your understanding of "doctrine" has undergone many changes over the last century. You...

    How the Satanic Black Mass Proves the Truth of Catholicism There have been a number of stories in the news lately of small Satanic groups publicly performing so-called “Black Masses.” These rituals are based on the Catholic mass but are inverted toward Satan and often involve the desecration...

    We commonly hear accusations along these lines: such as that the Church for centuries provided only a few difficult-to-access “chained Bibles” and forbade Bible translations in the vernacular. This broad topic is one of the most cherished anti-Catholic myths, yet in point of fact it's an...

    Yes Mary. I am quite familiar with that drum pounded by "Bible Christian" bigots. Correct them with facts, and they jump to the next item on their long list of lies. Isaiah 8:20 doesn't give a list of books belonging in the Bible. This is a non-reply. You cannot admit the books of the Bible...

    Some interesting facts from wikipedia:, my words in italics The Protestant Reformation, and especially the English Reformation, brought new suspicions against the Jesuits, who were accused of infiltrating political realms and non-Catholic churches. In England, it was forbidden to belong to the...

    Books Outside the Bible

    Allow me to clarify, because the sola scripturists don't get it. If scripture alone is the sole rule of faith, then there should be a "rule of faith" over what books belong in the Bible. There is no list. There are no verses anywhere in the Bible listing what books belong in it. Sola scriptura...

    You are changing the words of scripture to force-fit it into your agenda. The Greek for your "on the contrary" is Μενοῦν which means "rather", as translated in Strong's 3304 [e]. And found in 27 Bible translations. "contrary" is found in only 8 modern translations, a departure from the KJV...

    I am well aware of bad traditions in the Bible. The sad thing is those are the only "tradition" verses you can find. You are trying to over-ride previous refutations. People catch on to your repeated posts and scroll past them. Your trolling.

    The SDA's take obscure outdated documents, that are disciplinary and not dogmatic, intended for the 12th century, and pretend it was written yesterday and act like each word is binding on all Catholics. You do the same thing. Explanation of Fourth Lateran Council, canons 3 and 18 The Fourth...

    I am not the one with the sudden change of subject. If you admit to your erroneous usage of "until", your position will begin to collapse. That's why you are changing the subject.

    Richard Bennett has been exposed in post #739. Arius was a Catholic bishop who challenged the Doctrine of the Trinity so being a "Catholic bishop" does not bolster the testimony of a heretic. People who want the facts can go one page back, #739. Burying tactics won't stop them.
