Yes, I know. Paul was always subject to the Church you despise. Then you quote from her book that was preserved and discerned by Catholic bishops. The Church is Jesus on earth and then you accuse them of persecuting Jesus when you don't know where He is.

Please tell me explicitly what the Church has done to you personally that would cause you to hate her so much. Were you abandoned by your father? That might explain your issues with authority.

I don't expect you to understand or accept the Church's teaching on the Eucharist, but I would ask you curb your insulting tone. There is lots of good on line information and it would be wise to get up to speed on what is actually taught and believed, instead of blurting anti-Catholic drivel...

Reciting memorized prayers is more like background music to a movie. What is actually mediated on is all the major events of the life of Christ. (the "movie" part) There are 20 in total, 18 direct from scripture, and 2 indirect from scripture. Jesus did not condemn repetitive prayer, just the...

Pope says sorry for sins of church, notice it's for sins actually committed, not for sins invented by psychotic anti-Catholic bigots from where you get your information. The Pope is humble enough to admit real sins, and seek forgiveness, but when was the last time a Protestant leader did the...

Hate propaganda is readily available on the internet. I think the word of a professor of history who specializes in the medieval era has more weight than a myth making web site with an axe to grind. No author is named and no credentials either. Again: Myth #5 No pope ever called a Crusade...

Myth 5: The Crusades were also waged against the Jews. No pope ever called a Crusade against Jews. During the First Crusade a large band of riffraff, not associated with the main army, descended on the towns of the Rhineland and decided to rob and kill the Jews they found there. In part this...

Note that it is YOU going off topic with this lame attack. Oh, yes. The peace loving Muslims occupying the Holy Land against the bloodthirsty Catholics. What a joke. That's like civilized countries supporting the beheading of children by the ISIS, the picture YOU are painting. You should try...

When someone rambles off 5 psychotic lies in a single sentence, they not interested in a discussion, worse, they are incapable. At least he admits getting his lies from the nut jobs on you tube. Would the report button do any good?

Tom, keep in mind this is a PROTESTANT owned, PROTESTANT managed forum, and we are tolerated guests. This thread should have been shut down on the first hypocritical attack on sex scandals. The problem is how the general public has been so hoodwinked by the media especially PROTESTANTS who think...

CARDINAL PELL SHOULD SUE FOR LIBEL Pope Francis meets sex abuse victims 99.98% OF PRIESTS ARE INNOCENT

The Royal Commission in Australia is a fraud. The Church had been required to undertake a comprehensive data survey. First, it had to provide the total number of priests, brothers and sisters in all its authorities from 1950 to 2010. This number was not produced. Then it was asked for the total...

Excerpts from SHINING THE LIGHT ON “SPOTLIGHT” the movie. Please read the full context in the link< The movie “Spotlight” is bound to spark more conversation about the sexual abuse scandal in the Catholic Church. Unfortunately, much of what the American public knows about this issue is...

The Church did not fail to act, just not fast enough. The Commission, as reported, uses terms like "alleged sex abuse", and "claims made" but no where does the Commission list convictions. Thus the stats are meaningless, especially with bogus claims and steeple chasing lawyers. Remember, the...

Thanks Oz. Apologetics is a hobby, I am not an apologist. I have more to post; I'm waiting for the witch hunters to mouth off.

Your questions are spread out over the entire page. Please condense and re-post.

I hate this topic, it doesn't prove anything. The US News has a catchy headline but it doesn't say how many priests violate their vows with boyfriends. A gay priest doesn't necessarily mean actively gay. Being gay is not a sin, doing gay things is a sin. US New wants to keep the stake fires...

They have been answered. I notice you haven't answered any of mine in post #80. Nevertheless, if you can justify belonging to a non-denominational denomination, and it works for you, fine. But you have no basis to accuse the CC of apostasy. That kind of nonsense has to do with false...
