So what happens to the Great Commandment of Christ?

“Love one another as I have loved you.”

Just because my name might have the word, Catholic after it or your name might have the word, Baptist after it — does that cancel out Christ’s commandment to love one another?

Don’t we both love God above all things?

Don’t we both try to love our neighbor as ourselves?

Of course we strive to live God’s word and will.

All I am saying is that Protestants are hardly likely to garner the ear of the Catholic Church as far as changing doctrine.

Why would Francis listed to the Gay rights crowd and change doctrine to accommodate them?

I fear that things are so out of control in our world that no man can fix it. Only God can.

If all religions can join together, even keeping their own beliefs, what would be wrong with that?

I’m not as eloquent as you are, but like you said..we all need to love one another inspite of our differences.

It’s the only chance we have.

Unfortunately, it sure doesn’t appear that way in perusing the religious threads here, Salvation. Sure hard to read them and ‘feel the love.’

Some of us do. Some of us would rather point their finger at other people’s religion rather than look in the mirror and do the finger pointing where it belongs.
