It is significant to me that people who reject the infinite God, almost invariably have to put something else into the "Infinity Placeholder." For some reason, inexplicable to philosophical materialism, we have brains with the intricate and "evolutionarily" irrelevant and expensive capacity to think of things which actually do not exist in the physical universe: the infinity of primes, the infinity of the decimal places in pi (now calculated to 10 trillion places and still going), eternity, transcendance, a perfect circle.

For some reason, our brains were built to specifications which go beyond material reality as we know it.

So: an never-ending series of parallel universes, eh? Just another "fix" to fill the God-shaped hole. I will certainly bow my head and pray for your brother and for all souls who feel inexplicably out of place, souls who all their lives have been longing for...What?

Thanks for posting the truth. Just because a man can build a chapel/church and hire dissenting priests to say a Mass, does not mean he is an active Catholic.

In fact, his church is not even recognized by the Diocese of Los Angeles.

Cardinal Mahoney wouldn’t do anything about it, and I suspect Archbishop Gomez is quietly working in the background as is his style!

You’re in for a sad surprise and awakening one day my friend. I hope it’s prior to you crossing over into eternity.

Ah, so someone from some fringe group like the moonies, Seventh day Adventists etc who is not even in the orthodox Protestatn groups like the orthodox Anglicans, Lutherans / Methodists now is able to interpret and speak for God

What do they call the "pasters" in your group? Prophets? Or Imams?

Bah, no wonder the 6th and 7th generation Protestant groups die out so quickly (the first gen: took 500 years, like the Arians, Marcionites etc., the 4th and 5th (Baptist, Pentecostals) burn out in 50-70 years and now the new 6th generation is led by loonies deviating completely from Christ's teachings and no wonder it burns out quickly)

Charlatans all..

ha! Baptists came from Anabaptists who came from Puritans who came from the Anglicans

The Baptist faith originated from within the English Separatist movement. Prior to the Protestant Reformation, the Church of England (Anglicans) had broken away from the Catholic Church. Then came the mainstream Reformation

Then came John Smyth

in 1606, John Smyth, a Fellow of Christ’s College, Cambridge, had broken his ties with the Church of England. Reared in the Church of England, he became "Puritan, English Separatist, and then a Baptist Separatist," and ended his days working with the Mennonites

John the “Baptist,” the forerunner of Jesus Himself, came long before the ana-baptist and the catholics.

Ha ha, so now you use the suffix of St. John to justify the creation of a sect in the 1600s?

Baptists were founded by John Smyth, an English separatist in 1609 who was reared in the Church of England, he became "Puritan, English Separatist, and then a Baptist Separatist," and ended his days working with the Mennonites

The guy was first in the Anglicans, then joined the Calvinist, then jumped to the English Separatists, then the Baptist separatists and then the Mennonites.

Baptists then took much of their stuff from Anabaptists and ta da created their mix, founded by Smyth, not by Christ. Just another man-made religion that denies and attacks Christ's ONE Holy Apostolic Catholic Church,
