Good bye, Job. It was fun.

So you keep saying. But you seem to belong to a church of one. You are your own pope. You are the only member. Must make pot lucks difficult.

That's the church building. The parish is made up of the people who live in the neighborhood and attend services here.

So, scripture is incapable of guiding us to truth. If you can interpret a verse one way, and I another, who's right? How do we know?

My favorite part is the unanswerable accusation that Vatican City is a city. So damning! The bible says the harlot is from a great city! Awww man. Busted! But the streets form triangles! Oh man! It must be satanic! This is what your anointing teaches you?

This verse is very interesting when taken out of context. But the context seems to clarify it for me. John is addressing a whole assembly. He talks about unity. He talks about those who've left the fold and that it was God's plan so that they would be found out. Near the end of the chapter...

REally? Did God make those awful videos? My authority resides in the establishment Jesus founded, built on the Rock, and promised to remain with until the end of the age.

So now you're saying the Church is not the people? It seems I've read several times here that Christ's Church is made up of people. Do you not agree with that? I watched every minute. I had trouble finding even a single assertion that wasn't in total error. Just one example: The upside down...

How?

I'm in the Catholic Church. Hey! Wait a minute! What are you saying?

Impossible to unknowingly worship someone.

Evil imitates the good.

From the Church.

Triangle=symbol for trinity. What's wrong with that. The eye in the triangle=symbol for omniscience of God. Wow, it is so suspicious that the Chair of Peter would have an upside down cross on it! Hmm, I wonder what that could mean? What does Peter have to do with an upside down cross? Huh...

How will you ever hope to understand the other side if you don't listen to or read them? What are you afraid of? Aren't you confident in your own knowledge and beliefs? Just consider for a moment, "What if it is true?" What if Jesus gave us his body and blood for food? What if he actually...

If you want me to answer, then you're going to get Catholic material. I'm Catholic, so whatever I type is going to be Catholic. Care to rephrase?

Then you better stop reading the New Testament. Written by, disseminated by, read in local churches by, preserved by, collected by, ratified by... the Catholic Church. Where do you get the notion that Sacred Scripture is the inerrant word of God? (I agree that it is, I just wonder why you...

Here's a quick summary. Jesus Christ Established a Visible Church On Earth Basically, it is the hermeneutic of continuity. There is one plan of salvation that started when the Father cursed the serpent in the Garden and made a promise that Eve's seed would be in enmity with the serpent's...
