As usual - you are confused. You are conflating Canon Law with Civil Law. Canon Law doesn't speak of executions or confiscation oof property. Those were decrees handed down by governments - NOT the Church. Excommunication is a BIBLICALLY-BASED discipline. If you knew your history, you would...

Ummm - there's one GIGANTIC hole in your idiotic rant: "Vicarius Fli Dei" is NOT an official title for the Pope. His titles include: - Bishop of Rome -Vicar of Jesus Christ -Successor of the Prince of the Apostles -Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church -Primate of Italy -Archbishop and...

Apparently, reading is yet another skill at which YOU are wotfully inept. I specifically stated in my last post that the book Pedophiles and Priests lists the FBI and INSURANCE statistics. EVERY SINGLE ONE of those cases you are referring to was settled with money fro Diocesesan insurance...

You covered nothing. All you did was deny the fact that the Scriptural and Jewish reckoning of what "3 days and 3 nights" means. I guess ignorance really IS bliss . . .

I OPENLY CJALLENGE you to show me a SINGLE instance of where a “persecutory” law spread to Canon Law. If you can’t do this – then I expect an apology. This kind of nonsense sets off the BS Meter every time . . . Funny, how you present the concocted “prophecies” from a proven FALSE prophet like...

Ummm - NOT according to the FBI, sparky. Check your statistics . . . In his book, Pedophiles and Priests, Protestant author, Philip Jenkins lays out all of the FBI, police and insurance statistics to reveal the following inconvenient truth: The molestation problem in Protestant churches DWARFS...

Only in your mind, because you don’t understand Scripture. The Jews were bound to Sacred Oral Tradition every bit as much as the Scriptures. The same is true in Christianity. Paul explicitly tells this to the Thessalonians: 2 Thess 2:15 "Stand firm and hold fast to the Traditions you were...

That person would be lying, as only a smal percentage of priests were accused of any wrongdong. Conversely - if a person were to say that your SDA sect is just a cove for a worldwide pedophile rring - would that be accurate?? Adventist Women's Ministries | Statement on Child Sexual Abuse...

And apparently, the Jewish reckoning of what 3 days and 3 nights means went right OVER your head. Did the people were to pray for 3 FULL days and 3 FULL nigh for Esther before she went before the king? NO. They understood that ANY part of a day counted as a day and ANY part of a night counted...

The same is true, not matter which calendar you are using – Gregorian or Julian. The fact remains that a day is reckoned to ANY portion from sunrise to sundown – and a nigh as ANY portion from sunset to sunrise. When Esther was to appear before the king without being summoned (Esther 3:4) – she...

I read those posts. But, I think you’re coming from a false assumption of HOW the Church teaches. It’s not a “Our way or the highway” situation. Tradition and Magisterial teaching are never at “odds” with Scripture or are they ever presumed to be “above” Scripture. They go hand-in-and. That’s...

Okay - I re-read your last post, and it makes a little more sense now: Yes, that is what I’m saying. However – Matt. 16 is not the only verse I submitted for Church Authority.

Not sure what you’re ranting about. I stated that Church Authority is absolutely mandated by Scripture – and gave you several verses to support that position (Matt 16:16-19, Matt. 18:15-18, 2 Thess 2:15, Luke 10:16) I don’t see a SINGLE refutation of that argument in your response . . .

YOU can actually tell me that with a straight face after I just gave you a litany of man-made Protestant inventions?

Where does Jesus "disagree" with me?? WHERE in the OT do youfing the identity of Jesus of Nazareth? The Bereans made tht connection from the CHURCH because of what they had been told about Jesus.

The Bereans appealed to Scripture, for clues about what Paul taught them - which is a good thing because Scripture is Authoritative. You forget, howeber, that the Bereans ultimately believed in a fact that is NOT in the OT - that Jesus of Nazareth is the Christ, the Son of God. They learned...

From the beginning of time man has given his very BEST to God. Solomin’s Temple is described as having been more opulent and beautiful than ANY building we have today – complete with large statues, gold inlay, incense, etc.. Was God “disgusted” but this?? NO – He was pleased by it. The Holy...

So, YOU reject the basic tenets of the Christian faith such as: The Triune Godhead? The Virgin Birth? The Divinity of Christ? The Crucifixion as atonement for the sins of the world? The Resurrection? In that case, I guess I WAS wrong for calling you a “Protestant”. You’re just LOAT . . . And...

WRONG. Church Authority is ABSOLUTELY a Scriptural mandate: Matt 16:16-19 And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. WHATEVER YOU BIND on earth...
