Mary is called "mother of God" because Mary is the mother of Jesus, who is God. Jesus is the second person in the Holy Trinity. The second person in the Holy Trinity is God. Mary is the mother of the second person of the Holy Trinity who is God; therefore, it stands to reason that she can be...

Hello Marksman, Peace be with you. I'm glad that you are recovering nicely. I've been praying for your recovery. God bless you and I love you, my brother. :) In Christ, Selene

Yes, there is a founder of the Traditional Catholics. Your founder was Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, and he was excommunicated by the Holy See. A Roman Catholic is not supposed to go against the teachings of the Church, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the Canon Laws of the Catholic Church...

A true Roman Catholic follows the Holy See. From what I know of the Traditional Catholics, they put more emphasis on membership rather than on faith. They went against the Catechism. They stood against Vatican II and the founder of the Traditonal Catholics (Archbishop Lefebvre) ordained 4...

Yes, it makes sense. And the problem is...these traditional Catholics are calling themselves "Catholics" and they are not in communion with Rome because they don't accept everything that Rome teaches.

That's the thing...how can anyone who claims to be Catholic say that the Pope is infallible and then go against the Pope? The founder of the Traditional Catholics was excommunicated by the Vatican. When one is excommunicated, that means that one is no longer part of the Roman Catholic Church.

I am sorry to say, but you were never raised Roman Catholic. You were in a church that was already excommunicated by the Vatican. Your church did not separate from us. Your church was excommunicated by the Vatican because your church went against Catholic doctrines.

I remember that there was a priest who was teaching something that went against Catholic doctrine. He preached that only Catholics are saved and those outside the Catholic Church are not saved. This goes against the true teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, and he was excommunicated by the...

Hi Templar, Like the Orthodox Christians, your doctrines are very similar to ours. :) In Christ, Selene

Hello Thankful, You are correct that it is a verb, but it can also be used as a noun. As a noun in can be used in such a way: The love of money is a sin. In the Bible, it says that God is love; and that is what I am speaking about when I stated "Love is greater than knowledge because God...

Peace Marksman. I'm glad to hear that you are recovering. I've been praying for you. God bless and I love you, my brother. :) Hello Mighty Bear, I agree and I love the quotes you posted. :) St. Paul says, that the greatest of all is love (1 Corinthians 13:13). Love is even greater...

Yes, and that is why we have always proclaimed to have the fullness of Christ. :)

Yes, what the Church teaches is very important. Of course, members of every church are not perfect. After all, Christ called sinners to be in His Church. All the Apostles were sinners, so it would not be surprising to find that every church has members who are sinners. We all need God's...

Hi De Profundis, I agree. Even a Buddhist will think that Buddhism is the best for him/her simply because that is the religion he/she chose and are happy to be in it. One of the good things I admire about the United States is that they advocate "freedom of religion." No one is forced to...

Hi Aspen, I agree. As a Catholic, I was also looking forward to an honest dialogue with non-Catholics so that they can understand us better. By allowing them to hear our side, that would dispel any misconceptions and untrue things that anti-Catholics and fundamentalists have been publishing...

Hi Aspen, It's great to see you back, my brother. :) I was wondering what happened to you. Starting next week, I will be on holiday break for two weeks, but it is going to be a busy Christmas for me and my community in my Church parish. God bless. In Christ, Selene

You can print all the pictures you want. I am actually honored that you published them here. That way, everyone can see that we Catholics have great respect for the bodies of people who were our brothers and sisters and loved ones. We don't treat our brothers and sisters as nothing or as...

That's because you asked him the wrong question. The question is not why Mary is blessed. The question should have been "Who" will call Mary blessed. The answer: All generations wil call me (Mary) blessed.

Calling them "holy" is not the same thing as saying "come and adore them." God calls us to be holy (Lev. 11:44). Does that mean that we have to adore ourselves? No. God called the priests "holy" (Ex. 22:31). Does this mean that God is saying that we should adore the priests? No. So...

Really? I don't see any quotes from the Pope? Would you prefer to see the bones naked? "Not so lucky holy bones...???." Your disdain for someone's love one who passed away is very revealing. So, in your country, when a loved one dies, you just bury them and no words or uology is said...
