Thank you for your post and links t...Dear Douglas,<br /><br />Thank you for your post and links to my blog. We may not agree on much, however I am sure we could enjoy some great conversation together.<br /><br />I would like to address LVB's comment on "Christ formed the Catholic church".<br /><br />Jesus formed the Catholic Church on Pentecost ordaining our first Bishops, the Apostles.<br /><br />Secondly, I would like to make this argument. Why would Jesus trick Mankind until the 16th century?<br /><br />Thirdly, Let's say the Protestant Reformation was "True and Correct" Why then are there so many different interpretations of the Reformation? Some sources say that there are 33,000 different denominations contained within the definition of the Protestant Reformation.<br /><br />JMJ<br /><br />Joseph Fromm<br /><br />P.S.

Second, hi...First of all, a very interesting post.<br /><br />Second, his comment that "Christ formed the Catholic church" is not only exceedingly vain and self-serving, but also quite disgusting.<br /><br />I'm sure we all know the many areas where Catholicism has gone its own way to suit its own power gains and structure, and not in the true interest of the body of Christ.<br /><br />Some obvious examples would include: "Call no man Father", the idiocy of the Papal infallibility concept, the idolatry of praying to Mary and various Saints as being equal to Christ, the Cathechism itself (the CCC) and the all-too obvious "pray not in vain repetitions" (Matthew 6:7). Find me a Catholic who doesn't know the vain repetitions of parroting the Rosary and Hail Mary better than they can sincerely express the true state of their own heart directly to Christ, Himself...and well, you get the point.<br /><br />Let us count the ways all this is clearly and blatantly at odds with what Christ said He wanted from us in terms of His Church. <br /><br />There is no question that the facade of the Catholic Church, this multinational multi-billion dollar tax free corporation is not something of God, in any way, shape or form.LVBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274553336218519156noreply@blogger.com
