VeraMaria Posted December 13, 2003 Author Share Posted December 13, 2003 Quote -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wait let me get this straight. The purpose of this thread is to discuss Catholicism from an Evangelical perspective, so that other Christians can have a better understanding of what Catholicism teaches. Yeah right. If you truly want to know what Catholicism teaches you would ask a Catholic. If I wanted to get a better understanding of Evangelical Christianity, would you be happy if I asked a Mormon or a Jehovah's Witness, or God forbid a Catholic, what Evangelicals believed. Hogwash, I have the decency to ask an Evangelical what they believe, not people that do not know Evangelical Chrisitianity. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- One does not need to ask a Romanist in order to find out the beliefs of Rome. There are several of our members who were saved out of the Church of Rome (one was a former seminarian). The official teaches of Rome are available for anyone that wishes to research them. We do not need the opinions of a Papist in order for a discussion of the Church of Rome to be profitable. Once again, I will state that this is an Evangelical site. If one wants to engage a Romanist apologist in a dialogue there are plenty of sites that he can do that on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeraMaria Posted December 13, 2003 Author Share Posted December 13, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OK-I have been watching this post and the previous others, and i HAVE to chime in now. Before I do, I would just like to say-Bruce, earthless--Keep on Keeping on-i have never seen anyone post so many facts and see them ignored. It seems no one wants to actually read the responses and actually answer all of them, just the ones they dont want to ignore. There are those of us out here who admire your vigilance (even in the face of trying to open the eyes of a "brick wall") -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grin. Gotcha. I understand the mindset of those Catholics on these threads. Cognitive dissonance. A total disconnect from reality is REQUIRED of those INSIDE of Catholicsm engaging Protestants. Facts CANNOT count for those people. If they did, the reams of information provided MIGHT begin to open up cracks in the Catholic SYSTEM. And that cannot be allowed. So, they dance away from the REAL issues like a corrupt leadership, dogmatic insistance that what is clearly there in scripture..."isn't so" and such. This is a self protective mechanism for a functioning questioning Catholic. Hiding behind bookshelves of Papal explainations, Jesuit treatises, and the like, they can maintain the SYSTEM BELIEF in the face of overwhelming evidence that the Catholic system is not of God, but of Men. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Before anyone asks, I was also raised a Catholic for 20 years, baptized, went to Catholic School, confirmed, etc..So I DO KNOW about the practices of the Catholic Church. Then I was Saved and woke up. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Me too, same thing. I came to a RUDE awakening, and am still angry over the way that Catholics are USED by the leadership to maintain a lavish lifestyle, free to practice perversion, harming young people, and sucking up BILLIONS in dollars each year with various con games. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On to Mary, who WAS HONORED among women. Which does not mean she is any kind of CO-Redemtrix, way to communicate to God, path to salvation, or any of that Catholic Church teaching. However.. She WAS a Virgin at the time of Jesus' birth--but not after. MATTHEW 1:24-25 "When Joseph woke up, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. But he had no union with her until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus." Which means Joseph and Mary had no sex together UNTIL she gave birth. If they were to NEVER have sex it wouldnt have said 'until'. The simple understanding means, after the birth of Our Savior, they resumed a normal sex life like God intended. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is one of the SIMPLEST Catholic misunderstandings out there. Patently obvious to any except those with minds closed and fogged by the Catholic distortions. They NEED to maintain this fabrication, if this Mary distortion fell, the entire system of Co-Redemtrix and all would collapse of it's distorted free weight and down goes Catholicsm for almost a Billion people. They will defend this fabrication to death. And NOTHING that anyone can produce will dent the blindess, they cannnot allow this into their mind objectively, and won't. But I'm having fun on these threads anyway, I guess I need to lay off a little, punching gaping holes in Catholic corruption is really too easy.

VeraMaria Posted December 13, 2003 Author Share Posted December 13, 2003 i just read the first page in a thread of 114 responses, and it got me so angry i'll just not read anymore. anti-catholicism in community, they left off worse than they started, and shared their favorite anti-catholicism and got support. and on those forums you can;t post anything that is not Protestant, if it's from another source, it's banned. how wrong is THAT?? :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcePrincessKRS Posted December 14, 2003 Share Posted December 14, 2003 Its just a hub where anti-Catholics can get together and bash the Church. They won't accept Catholics defending the faith because they don't want to be proved wrong. Don't be angry. Pity them. Pray for them. They are the ones who are losing out, not us. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
