DESCRIBES THEM PERFECTLY.
How come only you guys know about this stuff???
Catholic does not describe those heretics at all.
AMEN! I've been preaching that for over 40 years.
You are right, but for the wrong reasons. The Canon was set in Carthage by an Ecumenical Council.
Is that fish on the endangered species list? ;-0
The Church of Iscool (population one) does not claim any connection with the Apostles that I know of. The Holy LaZBoy front and center of the Holy Sports Screen was unknown in those days.
There is a Christianity and a church described in the scriptures alone and it clearly ain't yours.
You may wish to renew your lens prescription. It most clearly is for those of us with eyes to see and ears to hear.
It was moderators who banned them, please remember that.
We're the only ones who object to this stuff. I don't see the non Catholic Christians as a rule objecting to Friday or Saturday worship by allegedly Christian groups. If you as a non Catholic Christian know about this and don't object, does that make you complicit?
The bible also teaches that the church is led first by the Apostles and then others of lower rank.
1 Cor 12:28
And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles .
Also there is not "one rock, Peter" upon which the church is founded, there is the cornerstone which is Christ and there's actually 24 pillars as we see both from Revelation 4:10, and Ephesians 2 :
Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
22In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
The Apostle John lived 30 years or so after Peter, and he would have been the true Apostolic successor, not the lower ranked bishops of Rome. Why would he, and when did he, abdicate his position in the church?
And of course, the history and the character of the Catholic Popes themselves is mind-boggling,and many were not fit to hold such a high office, of the one true church let alone the little problem they had with two or three popes claiming the office at the same time.
THX PRECIOUS BRO.
A dear student in my first class somehow found out and brought cupcakes for everyone. Of course, I had to tear up over it.
God is Kind.
Thanks for your kind words and thoughtfulness.
Yes, the fish the Apostles caught are so busy attacking each other's schools that the religion of the sword will have no difficulty in filleting them.
Stupid brother-against-brother, who's eye is mote-ier fighting will destroy our great Republic.
We have a real enemy. And I have to wonder if they are really 5th columnists posting threads like this to sow strife.
I have thought about this long and hard AND prayerfully. This is my conclusion:
The correct answer to “Who is really anti-Catholic?” is
Yo’ mama.
I know if you think about it you will see that I am right.
The cat lady is back
I’ve seen no one misrepresent Catholic beliefs...
We repeat what we read in your catechism, what we read that your popes say, what your bishops and priests say, what the official vatican newspaper says and what Catholic authors say and what you guys say...
If we get it wrong it’s because you guys are wrong and all over the map...You don’t even know your own religion...And that doesn’t even come close to being a bigot...
Don’t criticize us for repeating you...Criticize your own for putting out false information...
But then you guys can’t defend your religion anyway...When confronted with the many inconsistencies in your theology, you can’t offer documentation to refute any of it...The best you can do is point to a link to your catechism and and tell us to search for the answer...

INDEED TO THE MAX.
However, I don’t think their perceptions nor the level of their insight is sufficiently robust to even detect themselves remotely accurately on such scores.
I heard an ad on the radio the other day for an exterminator. He bragged how he could rid any home of silverfish, even if there were thousands of silverfish.
Glad I don’t have that problem.
LOL.
It depended on whether it was in the abstract or face to face.
She was quite gracious face to face.
In the abstract she was more than a little bad at generalizing and being at least wary if not hostile.
Thankfully, when I went to univ and even before . . . I had some close friends and favorite teachers who were Roman Catholics. And overseas, certainly so—living just a door down the hall from the precious Mary Knoll Sister. She would share Communion with us as a commemoration.
And, given my mother’s general craziness, there were a lot of her stuff I kind of flushed out of hand as it just didn’t make much sense generally . . . out of the starting blocks.
She was very sharp and perceptive about people as individuals. But she also jumped to conclusions as her major form of exercise.
One had to sort her stuff out carefully to get any useful meat vs the destructive stuff.
You are right, but for the wrong reasons. The Canon was set in Carthage by an Ecumenical Council.
Thanks for telling us we're correct. "Wrong reasons"? Are you saying that you read our minds? That you know our reasons? Shame on you! That's against the rules of FR!
