The answer is yes. Your question is based on urban legends that was never Church teaching, at a time when Protestants like you were taught that all Catholics were going to hell. See the official teaching on the matter of non-Catholics CCC 817-820

Matthew 6 doesn't forbid praying in public, it forbids using prayer in public to show off. Otherwise, whole communities would be forbidden to recite the Lord's Prayer, found in the same chapter. Your judgement against the Pope, who is a humble man, is ridiculous. Only very STUPID people think...

Only STUPID people think we ask created objects to pray for us.

Why do anti-Catholics get so bent out of shape over a picture of the Pope kneeling in prayer? Would they rather he stand on his head?

Moses and Elijah don't count? Matthew 17:3 No, that is not what it says. Jesus builds His Church on Peter's personal leadership. Matthew 16 Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jona! For flesh and blood has...

Matthew 16:17-19 Protestant scholars have taken a more dispassionate look at this text, they have come to agree more and more that Jesus was referring to Peter himself as the rock. Of course, they disagree with the Catholic interpretation of what this means, but many now agree that the Catholic...

So you have no respect for the martyrs, and don't have a clue what was taught in the first 3 centuries, and think there should never have been one person to lead the church. History is your enemy; your concept of "church" didn't exist until recently. Isaiah 22:19-25 Isaiah 22: 19 Shebna is...

BreadofLife never says anything contrary to the Church, and is exercising his right to express his faith within his level of competence, which we all do. There is nothing in the catechism forbidding anyone to attend any church. If you are Catholic, you would be well advised to be well grounded...

How and when did Catholics follow Peter's flesh and why didn't anybody notice this MONUMENTOUS event until a revolt 15 centuries later??? Were are told there were no Catholics at this time so which is it? The first 40 popes were martyred by pagan Romans, did they depart from the...

oops

Oh no! not those psychotic iconoclasts again!o_O

If that is true, what does Protestant mean? Is it just a word meaning ...what? CATHOLIC comes from the Greek word Katholikos, which was later Latinized into Catholicus. It means 'Universal', which in itself means, 'of or relating to, or affecting the entire world and ALL peoples therein'. It...

Have you ever talked to anyone who exclaimed: “The Bible never shows anyone praying to anyone other than God! And we can never communicate to anyone who is dead, either; that’s occultic!” Yet it’s indisputable that Jesus indeed plainly teaches the very thing that they claim is nonexistent in...

Which is precisely why I have him on ignore.

It must get lonely.

First you assert 5 falsehoods against my beliefs, then you judge my personal relationship with Jesus. I am not anxious to continue any discussion with a self appointed pope who is too proud to be taught anything.

You can't deny there are thousands of different churches teaching conflicting doctrines. You are the one blaming satan for your own separation from the true historic Church. Our Sacred Traditions come from the Apostles. I could easily say you love the Queen of England too much. Yes, we love...

You missed the point. You never read books? "we have no need of any man to teach us anything" means divine revelation was given to the Apostles to teach, followed by ordained bishops to continue the same teaching. It does not mean individual bible readers will have truths taught to them directly...

Do a search in any Bible search engine. I like BibleGateway. Search "word of God" and you will get 180-200 results, depending on the translation. I haven't found ANY that confines "word of God" to the written word alone. Maybe you can. The point being there is more to the word of God than what...

That's a good biblical basis for original sin. If a person rejects the BIBLICAL doctrine of original sin, then explaining infant baptism is almost impossible. We acquire original sin without a conscious choice, therefore it an be removed without a conscious choice.
