THE IDEA OF A POPE IS BASED ON A FALSE INTERPRETATION OF SCRIPTURE, THAT JESUS WANTED TO BUILD HIS CHURCH ON PETER, INSTEAD OF HIMSELF. WHY WOULD JESUS BUILD HIS CHURCH ON A SINFUL MAN?

Now that I know you consider yourself to be superior to us lowly Catholics, please do this lowly Catholic a favor, and leave me alone. I have no interest in little dog syndrome.
Are you SERIOUS??? Jesus was a Jew. The Apostles were Jews. The early Christians were Jews and Gentile converts (Judeo-Christians). No Catholics for many many years.
I do understand.
You said:
“I am a Christian, a member of the Body of Christ, it is simple.”
Then you are a member of a religion - the Christian religion, but only a Protestant member rather than a member who believes in the full faith.
“I am sorry you do not understand that.”
I do understand. Like many Protestants you do not seem to understand what you’re talking about.
I am not a Protestant, I am a Christian.
Your feeling of superiority is really quite interesting, and the new Pope is a such a humble man....maybe that might help you a bit to follow his lead.
lol.. ok. That is sort of funny. I believe you posted to me. I never said I was superior, I said I feel sorry for Catholics, and I do.
That is the truth. Did you want me to lie.
Little dog syndrome? Ah.. I have no idea what that is about.
Hey- peace.

A Protestant Christian. You are proving it with every post.
“Your feeling of superiority is really quite interesting,”
It’s not superiority and it sure as hell isn’t a feeling. It’s simply the truth. Christ established one Church. It wasn’t Protestant.
“and the new Pope is a such a humble man....maybe that might help you a bit to follow his lead.”
That humble man believes EXACTLY the same thing I do. He believes exactly what the Bible and catechism teach about sects. Look it up if you don’t believe me.
Yes, Christ establish a church and He called it His Bride.
The Body of Christ is His bride.
I have read much of what Pope Francis has said, and he sounds nothing like you - he is not bitter - he is not angry - he has no air of superiority.
So you go right on being who you are and I will go right on worshiping Christ - ok.
So good night.

I doubt it since few of his words are translated or even in print.
“... and he sounds nothing like you - he is not bitter - he is not angry - he has no air of superiority.”
I am not bitter - just truthful. I am not angry - just truthful. I am not superior - just truthful.
“So you go right on being who you are and I will go right on worshiping Christ - ok.”
I hope you one day learn how to fully worship Christ in His Church. Until then you’ll just keep mistaking truth for bitterness, anger and superiority.
So good night.
eye roll
Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.
Well where did your Bible come from... Richard Dawkins’ Laboratory?
This was said to me: “... and he sounds nothing like you - he is not bitter - he is not angry - he has no air of superiority.”
So, who is making it personal again?
Nevertheless, two wrongs do not make a right.
Come to think of it, this was also said to me: “Your feeling of superiority is really quite interesting, and the new Pope is a such a humble man....maybe that might help you a bit to follow his lead.”
So, she knows what I’m feeling? I was always told that was mind reading - and that is making it personal. Have the rules changed and we didn’t get a memo or is this the usual, “Protestants can, but Catholics can’t” nonsense?
No, two wrongs do not make a right, but apparently only my wrongs were being noted.
But only mature believers excel in religious debate. So if it happens again, send me a Freepmail with the link to the problem post - don't respond in kind because two wrongs do not make a right.
OMG.......Whatever you want to say Vlad.
I will repeat with the correct response.....
he sounds nothing like you apparently - he is not bitter - he is not angry - he has no air of superiority.”
Is that better.
Dear one, you have apparently made my point, thank you.
I worship the living Christ, I am part of the Body of Christ, I am not part of a religion (which is man made), I am loved and valued by the Living Christ, the Son of the Almighty God........you apparently well have other views,
And that is your right, I am not tied to ritual or rote I am tied Gloriously to the Body of Christ......
Thank you Jesus.
So have a wonderful night, and you admin also.
Admin if my reply’s violate any rules or protocol please remove.
I will state again, I am a Christian and belong to the Body of Christ, no religion, the Bride of Christ, if for some reason that is out of bounds please take whatever is necessary to remove my replies.
Thank you.
I shall try not to remove an RF post deemed to be “making it personal” unless leaving it would likely result in a flamewar.
