And put faith in which Jesus?

Exactly. The Catholic "Jesus" is a perpetual helpless infant eternally in the lap of the overpowering "Mary," who ultimately calls the shots. Honestly, He is ALWAYS depicted this way, or perpetually on the cross.

The Jesus most non-Catholic Christians worship is high and lifted up, seated at the right hand of the Father, NOT by his stern "mother."

You know, it just perpetuates the mistrust and misunderstandings to lie about the Catholic Church. How about you let us explain tenets of the Church and you explain tenets of your faith tradition... I think FR would be much more civil if we did this.

You mean like this?

I'd stay on the good side of that "perpetual helpless infant," if I were you.

The Nicene Creed - "He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father"- Catholics have been praying this since it was written in 325 AD.
