The Mormons have somebody and the Catholics have somebody. You may not agree with those somebodies but at least they have somebody willing to say yea or nay!

Well here is another...The Hidden Mahdi, the 12th Imam. The Shia say he will rule over the other two guys you mentioned and they will see their errant ways and serve him as Allah's rep on earth.

All three have something in common. They all (when the Mahdi allegedly appears he will) say 'they' are the main authority. They also have something in common. They are mere mortals like the rest of us. Complete failure there.

And just last week we remembered someone else who was willing to say yea or nay.

Of course they are mere mortals, just like Peter was a mere morsel, just like James was a mere mortal, just like John was a mere mortal. All the apostles, all the early fathers, and all those who wrote the Holy Scriptures were simply mere mortals.

Why is it that people are willing to give more importance to dead prophets who were mortals and not listen to people living in our own day and time when they say they speak for God.

I didn't know the Hidden Mahdi had revealed himself.I didn't realize the 12th Imam had revealed himself.

Whoever it is that comes from God to rule over me I hope I have the wisdom to accept.
