    "Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Faith" - Has 500 Years Taught Us Nothing?

    What about Pope John Paul II? He received an almost deadly wound. The bullet has been placed in the crown of Mary at Fatima. Is the anti-Christ SUPPOSED to receive a deadly wound, or almost deadly?

    I agreed with you PW. I said that they used writings OUTSIDE of scripture for this and also man's reasoning. I'm just saying that the cc does esteem the bible over oral tradition,,,I understand what you're saying....then why would they make doctrine that is not based on the bible? I agree...

    "Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Faith" - Has 500 Years Taught Us Nothing?

    I've been speaking to @Reggie Belafonte . I sure hope you're not calling me an ignorant anti-catholic. As to the rest...the world has ignored many massacres..we each feel our own. And the Masonry and Illuminati WOULD like to destroy the church...this is the opposite of believing the church is...

    "Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Faith" - Has 500 Years Taught Us Nothing?

    Gosh D, I'm not too interested in end times stuff. I'm having problems with TODAY! But, yeah, I know this is how many protestants think. It's not new to me, I just don't agree with it. As to the muslims, I used to know someone that was convinced the anti-Christ would come from Mecca, which...

    "Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Faith" - Has 500 Years Taught Us Nothing?

    If you start one, make sure to let me know. I do think we protestants go a little overboard at times with our beliefs. I'm pretty familiar with catholic doctrine, maybe I see things differently...

    Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

    You're right. Paul was so humble after his conversion. He was even worried HE might not make it to the end of the race! As to dreaming...yeah, I gotcha. I love science fiction. Did you see Matrix? I liked it. And many more like that...The Thirteenth Floor. Wow...

    "Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Faith" - Has 500 Years Taught Us Nothing?

    Yes. I understand this...but it doesn't make it true. He is not against Christ He does not take the place of Christ...at least not in the sense that I'm sure you mean it. It's like when a priest gives absolution...HE is not forgiving the sin, God is, but the priest proclaims it as Jesus would...

    "Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Faith" - Has 500 Years Taught Us Nothing?

    I really would like to understand better why some are so mad at the CC. Let them believe what they will --- why do you care so much? Those that will be saved, will be saved - even if the doctrine they follow is not correct in our view. Not every Protestant is saved either...even though we...

    Hi PW, the above is a very good example. The Immaculate Conception is a recent declaration (1854, about) made by the magisterium of the church (pope and all the bishops). What's interesting is that they made this dogma because it was felt, as you rightly pointed out, that since Jesus had to be...

    "Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Faith" - Has 500 Years Taught Us Nothing?

    I know what you're talking about. I was a secretary and knew that language... I was a bookkeeper and knew that language... I was a travel agent for a few years and had to learn that language too. So, yeah, I agree. And very right on about not understanding each other. I say "works" and...

    "Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Faith" - Has 500 Years Taught Us Nothing?

    I agree that it was a lowering of "standards"...this is not what we mean but I can't think of the word and I'm too tired. I agree about trying to get more people to go to church by making it more "user friendly". I don't agree about the Latin. Why do you think Latin was so important? It's just...
