Know the part of the Lord's Prayer (Protestant version) that goes "For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever"? Guess what? That's a "man made prayer" -- a liturgical prayer from a Catholic missal of the 9th Century. But you've no doubt said it.

I realize that your intentions are good. You simply need to read more about Church history and study the Catholic Faith. In the Catholic Church, you will find your true home.

Could you please define what a "Protestant version" Bible is? I myself am Protestant. My Bible is an Authorized 1611 King James Version, complete with Apocrypha. The part that goes "For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever"? is listed in Mathew 6:13 with that wording (other than some minor spelling issues, since it uses the old English).

On the other hand, my wifes Bible (a former Catholic, who received her Catholic bible on her first Communion) states the same passage (Mathew 6:13) as ""and do not subject us to the final test, but deliver us from the evil one"

Sorry, I'll take my Authorized 1611 King James over the Catholic New American Bible.

Plus, you claim that the prayer is a Man-made prayer? Interesting since my Bible has this as an example of how we should pray to the father, an example given by Jesus himself. Where in the Bible does Jesus give an example of how to pray to the Rosary to Mary?

It is not my intention to flame or cause arguements. I am wanting to learn and gain an understanding.
