Rhetoric, and nothing but. I already called you.

If you're Roman Catholic, you can read the Bible a thousand times and, apart from a work of the Spirit of God, it won't matter. You will not let you see what Rome tells you isn't there. You'll believe Rome, not your lying eyes.

You have cited ZERO evidence that I am ignorant in ANYTHING I have said about RCism. You share that in common with every other RC I've talked with in FR.

You just think you're obliged to defend that which cannot be defended. I pray that you will learn that you needn't, and discover the joy and liberty of knowing Jesus Christ, as He is revealed in the Word of God alone.

Dan

I have read the bible, as is required to be a good Catholic. It tells me that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for my sins so that I may be saved.

Every good Catholic believes this. We have learned this through the bible, not Rome.

Are we in error in believing this?
(a) if you answer "Yes" - then there is no need for us to discuss anything further because you would not be a Christian.
(b) if you answer "No, RCs are not in error in believing this" - then we can discuss things further.
(c) if you give me some more bs about "lying eyes" or something similar then I will simply dismiss you as being either stubborn, dillusional or ignorant.

You know, some Protestants simply amaze me. Catholics and Protestant both believe the same singlemost important thing: that Jesus died for our sins so that we may be saved. We are also in good agreement on most other things: God, heaven, satan, how to live a Christian life, marriage, family, abortion, etc. There are thousands of hedonists, non-believers, atheists, agnostics - and millions of poor, hungry and lonely people. Yet some Protestants devote enormous amounts of energy to attacking Catholics.

Read Luke 11:17,18.
