Those Catholics are ignorant. No one can be damned who does what he is convinced is right.
If you became convinced that the Catholic Church is the church founded by Jesus Christ, and refused to join it, then you would be damned, as I am sure will agree.
Whoa, there! That's sounds like Pope Francis talking to his atheist friend.
Lucifer and Hitler both convinced themselves and millions of others that they were "right".
Then the Catholic church is wrong.
People are not saved by being *sincere* and following their consciences.
People are saved by faith in Jesus Christ.
Catholics harp on *correct* doctrine all the time and yet now, you claim *sincerity* is enough?
The heck with doctrine, right? Just follow your conscience and do what you believe is right.
So if someone claims that the right to abortion is a gift from God, then as long as they are following their conscience, they're saved. They can give abortions and be convinced they are *ministering* to women. They can receive abortions as long as they believe that they are doing the best thing for that child.
As long as the homosexuals believe sincerely that God will honor their genuine love for each other, they can practice all the homosexuality they want and still be saved. After all, they are simply doing what they are convinced is right.
