What absolute idiocy.

Take the "Satanic obelisk". It's in the Vatican because it originally stood in Nero's circus, where the first martyrs of the Roman church died. You know what us awful Papists carved into it? "Christus vincit, Christus regnat, Christus imperat" ... "Christ conquers, Christ rules, Christ reigns". Does that sound Satanic to you?

Practically everything you object to about Catholicism can be shown to exist long before Constantine. What DIDN'T exist until 70 years or so AFTER Constantine was uniform agreement on the canon of the NT. That's right: your Bible is ultimately a product of the "corrupt" post-Constantine church. BTW, even some SDAs now admit that Sunday worship can be traced to the Apostolic age.

What I object to with the RCC is how it compares to God's Word. I don't care what the SDA's think. The Sabbath is the 4th Commandment of God. Can you just do away with the 6th Commandment? The 7th? The pope that changed the Sabbath actually said he had more authority than Jesus. You've done away with the no graven image Command because that's al;l you do is bow and pray to statues. You even insist that Jesus had no siblings and they are named in Scripture. You insist Mary was sinless when Jesus Himself said there in none good, no not one. If Mary could have been sinless, why did Jesus have to die? If you read Scriptures, you knock down pagan idols not erect them in your courtyard. What do I care what Papists carved anywhere? They are sinful men.

The Word of God is our guide, not men. You at least know where the obelisk came from, most don't.

I can't even imagine how the RCC teaches Revelation 17-18 and misses that it's about them! You have eyes but you can't see. Google Constantine and see what it says. James was leader of the church when Jesus ascended. There is not one mention of Peter leading the church in Scripture and Revelation was written about 90-96 AD. Did Paul mention Peter as leader of the church? There is no pope, no cardinals, and no nuns. It's a man made religion. Jerusalem is God's city and Rome will burn in an hour.
