Thank you Nancy. If you are reading this I appreciate it. I assumed you would want to know that we are both alike in that we both accept Tradition. Your faith about knowing or believing who wrote the books of the bible is based on the written Tradition of the ECF's of which they received this...

Thank you stumpmaster. So you and I are a lot alike. We both break bread, remember Christ death and read from Scripture in our gatherings with our fellow Christians. That gathering is on Sundays for me and my ilk. How about you....Sundays? BTW.....Why did I have to ask you multiple times...

I agree. You can't help me. You can't even help yourself to provide the evidence to back up your own statement. Obviously you don't "see it" either otherwise I am sure you would have been more than happy to give your evidence. You failed and you are unable to back up your own statement. How...

Yes, I can say your statement is BIZARRE!! Reading the bible forbidden??? It is hard to take you serious when you make statements like that. First off the bible wasn't even available to the average person until the printing press was invented. Second off a large portion of the population...

Got it. I now see what you are saying. You didn't mean singular (THE catechism only). I apologize. Yes, that line is professed in the Rite of Initiation when one becomes a Catholic. Scripture says The Church is the Pillar and foundation of Truth. Shouldn't one believe what the Pillar and...

This is a stretch but......The only thing I can figure is to defray the cost of the RCIA class....but that is, to the best of my knowledge, ALWAYS free. I wouldn't call Rollo a liar but possibly the other guy was liar? I just don't know. If @Rollo Tamasi could give us more information (which...

Oh PW....I thought you were more knowledgeable than that about things such as these. Please provide your proof that "to become a Catholic, they have to agree with the Catechism". Patient Mary

I wonder if it's true? Mary

I agree.

I should take into consideration that you and others don't know me personally and don't know my personality. You call it goading, I call it a poke in the eye or just having fun. If I have left you with the impression I am condescending I apologize for that impression. I will leave out any...

You are the one who said that God told you that (gave you that interpretation) .....So in effect are you not telling me to believe YOU??? Curious Mary

Thank you PW. I will admit when I said to @amadeus "I thought you were joking" and "as you seem to believe" in hindsight it does seem condescending. For that I apologize to him if he took it that way. I sincerely, at the time, thought he was just saying that as a joke (that God talked...

Wow...such an articulate and well thought out response. You aren't even going to try and refute what I have written??? :( Really? I worship the cross? Where is your evidence of that? Patient Mary

Ummmm.....Your the one who threw yourself into the conversation by contacting me first soooooooo please don't go there!!!! Mary

Dear Rollo, I do worship as I am from the time of the Apostles. I gather together with my fellow Christians and break bread (Acts) and when I do this I don't do it in unworthy manner so I won't bring judgment upon myself (1 Corinthians). I pray after communion and no one in my Church (RCC) is...

To suggest Catholics don't think Jesus is alive, risen and sitting at the right hand of God because we portray him on a crucifix instead of a cross is ludicrous. Using your own illogical argument one could say an empty cross means he was never crucified because he never made it to the cross...

Really? The mass started in the Dark Ages? Did the Dark Ages start around the year 150AD? Ever been to a Catholic Mass Episskopos? If you had you would recognize in the mass what Justin wrote almost 1,900 years ago. Maybe YOU should "check it out": On the day called Sunday there is a...

Oh. I thought you were joking since your interpretation is different then what was taught 2,000 years ago. I am specifically talking about this statement from you: We have been provided the means: scripture [flesh of Jesus] and blood [the quickening Spirit]."Then Jesus said unto them, Verily...

I am not going to ask you to reveal your secret PW.:rolleyes: I can't find in scripture who wrote Luke and Acts which means you had to go to a different source to discover what you KNOW. Can you point me toward your source without revealing it? Just a hint or two? Please? :rolleyes: Mary...

Hi Rollo. Thank you for your input. A cross without Christ on it is a symbol/reminder of all those who were crucified by the Romans. A cross with Christ on it, commonly called a crucifix, is a reminder of what He did for us. Do you not like a visual reminder of what He did for us? As...
