Learn to understand the CONTEXT of Scripture instead of simply blurting out verses willy-nilly . . . Jesus isn't condemning the use of the term "Father" in Matt. 23:9. He is using hyperbole (exaggeration) to make a point and does so many times in Scripture. In the verse that precedes this...

What a weak and faithless view of Scripture. Scripture is the inerrant, breathed Word of God Himself. The Holy Spirit determined which Books belong4ed in the Canon - and He spoke the decision through His Church.

Nope - but the Jews didn't have Christ as their Victor and Savior over the Canaanites. Christians DO have Him as Victor and Savior over paganism and every other form of sin.

If there are guilty individuals in history - then there are guilty individuals. YOUR problem is that you are completely unable to differentiate the individuals from the Church at large. Were there some bad Popes? Yup. Were there some equally bad Protestant leaders? Yup. For example - the...

Pagan Rome persecuted Christians until the reign of Constantine in the 4th century and the Edict of Milan, which gave protected legal status to Christianity. Move out of your mom's basement and go to a library to do some reading . . .

Only a blind person - or a liar - can't see that magnificent, victorious cross atop the pagan obelisk in St. Peter's Square. Which one are YOU?

Not the same "monster", Einstein. TWO different entities: One is a government - one is a Church. Remember that lesson I taught you about differentiating entities . . .

So WHO is worse? Catholic Spaniards, who killed thousands of Protestants - or Protestant Brits, who killed thousands of Catholics? I'll wait right here for your reasoned response . . .

And as I schooled you in post #173 - posters on sources like YOU who get – get their “facts” about the Inquisitions from “Wikipedia” are really getting them from TWO major sources: Henry C. Lea (1825–1909) and G. G. Coulton (1858–1947). As I stated earlier - BOTH of these men were virulent...

Forget everything I said about your previous posts. THAT is the most moronic thing you've said so far.

Actually, I was there - and it's very easy to see the triumphant cross atop the pagan obelisk in St. Peter's Square. It's a wonderful reminder of the victory of Christ over pagan Rome. And prostrating oneself before Christ in service to Him is not bowing down to a mere man. Congratulations...

Two different entities, junior. Remember what I taught you about differentiating entities . . .

Wikipedia – how cute. You DO understand that Wikipedia can be edited by anybody – don’t you? Now, here’s how REAL grown-ups do REAL research . . . First of all – MOST Protestants, and by process of elimination, posters on sources like “Wikipedia” – get their “facts” about the Inquisitions...

There's no difference between Bob nd Dave, Einstein - but there IS a difference between pagan Rome and the the Christian Church in Rome. Does your mother support you - or does her bank support you? Just because YOU live in her basement doesn't mean that he bank runs her household. They would...

Still having trouble differentiating pagan Rome and the Church? Keep reading your history - you'll get there . . .

Got some documented proof for that idiotic claim?

First of all, it's "obelisk" - and do you know why it's there? I'll give you a chance to look it up and sound smart. Secondly - your question didn't make any sense. Maybe if you put down your comic books and video games and paid attention to the conversation -we MIGHT actually have an...

Another idiotic post from yet another uneducated poster living in his mother's basement . . .

It's the SAME ceremony, my intellectually-challenged friend.

These are ALL examples of deacons lying prostrate during their ordinations to the priesthood as they surrender their lives in service to Christ - and there's not a Pope in sight . . .
