    Electing New Pope

    Ummmm, Sacred Tradition, for one: 2 Thess 2:15 "Stand firm and hold fast to the Traditions you were taught, whether by an ORAL STATEMENT or by a LETTER from us." Here, the Bible puts Sacred Tradition ON PAR with Scripture. Another is the Church. In fact - the Bible, which YOU labels as outr...

    Electing New Pope

    First of all, Einstein - "Pope" is NOT a title oif the Bishop of Rome. It is simply a term of endearment, derived from the word for "Father" (Papa). Secondly - there are OTHER words in the Christian lexicon that are not in the Bible. "Trinity" - yet ut us one of the MAIN tenets of the Christian...

    Electing New Pope

    MANY of the Early Popes were either Jewish or Greek or some other ethnicity. They are list ed as "Roman" because of their citizenship. Paul was considered a "Roman" because of his citizenship - but he was a Jew. So it ALL depends on WHO is keeping records. That shouldn't have anything to...

    Electing New Pope

    Thank you for yet another skewed Ellen white “history” of the Church. Constantine had NOTHING to do with Catholic doctrine – and there is ZERO evidence that points to this fairy tale. Boy – that demonic lady REALLY did a number on you SDAs . . . If the Romans were sticklers about anything – it...

    Electing New Pope

    It doesn’t “strike a nerve”. WHY should it? It’s a stupid conversation and I often ridicule really stupid things. Can YOU tell me why no Africans have taken charge of the Eastern Orthodox Churches? How about the Anglican Church? Can you name the last Chinese President of the World Methodist...

    Electing New Pope

    And UNTIL the fall of the Roman Empire – MUCH of the world was part of it. Soooo, YOU think that they should have sailed around the world wo find a Pope that wasn’t living in a country that was part of the Roman Empire? This is without a doubt – one of the most idiotic conversations I’ve...

    Look it up – newadvent.org Some were from Portugal, Spain, Germany, France, etc. Ignorant and clueless is NO way to go through life, son . . .

    Electing New Pope

    When I said you were being “silly” – I was being nice. “Stupid” is more like it. Of the 266 Popes in the last 2000 years – there have been SEVENTY (70) non-Italian Popes. Do your homework before you make these kinds of idiotic remarks.

    Well there's no satisfying virtue-signaling, leftist radicals . . .

    Why do Catholics…

    No – the ORIGIN of Protestantism is in your Protestant Fathers – i.e., Luther, Calvin, Zwingili, et al. Whether ot not they thought they were representing Christ is irrelevant. The OTIGIN is with them. As to your second lie above in RED – don’t blame GOD for the Protestant Revolt. This was a...

    Electing New Pope

    And to my knowledge – there hasn’t been a Chinese Pope or a Japanese Pope Indian Pope Lithuanian Pope Russian Pope Dutch Pope Australian Pope Icelandic Pope Irish Pope English Pope Scottish Pope Native American Pope and so on . . . Sooooooo – what’s your point? You're just being silly . . .

    Electing New Pope

    I’ll make you a deal: As soon as YOU show me where the BIBLE says that our ONLY Authority is the BIBLE – then I’ll show you where you can find the word “Cardinal” in the Bible . . . Chapter and Verse, please.

    Electing New Pope

    It's a fail because you couldn't answer ANY of the questions I asked of you - as usual. Changing the subject and moving the goalposts are the tactics of a failure . . .

    Electing New Pope

    Once again – God doesn’t play identity politics. He’s not a racist, woke leftist, who thinks that a person’s color actually has something to do with his character or qualifications. Why does it matter to YOU?

    Why do Catholics…

    The Early Church was the Catholic Church. What it wasn't was any of your disjointed Protestant factions . . .

    Why do Catholics…

    Ahhhhh – YOU explained . . . So, now, we must adhere to YOUT traditions?? Keep your 16th century, man-made manure. I’ll stick with Christ’s Church . . .

    Why do Catholics…

    THIS, coming from a Sola Scripturist, who says that Scripture is our SOLE Authority. Okay – let’s play that game . . . Scripture says that: - Jesus guaranteed that His Church would not succumb to darkness (Matt. 16:18). - His Church would remain ONE – as He and the Father are ONE (John...

    Why do Catholics…

    First of all – I simply showed you the testimonies of the Early Church to give a PORTRAIT of what the Church believed at the time of the Apostles – and they worshipped the Eucharist as Christ. Since the Protestant Revolt in the 16th century – Protestantism has invented ALL KINDS of different...

    Electing New Pope

    The NT came out of the Catholic Church – the Apostles and their disciples – guided by the Holy Spirit (John 16:12-15).
