    Jesus founded the Christian Church. Catholicks are NOT Christians.

      abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

        Just because the Catholic church says that, doesn't make it true.

        Note: I doubt an apostle of Jesus would claim to be "infallible," like Popes insist they are. Why?

        Because it's HERESY.
        The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men.~Joel 1:12

            Cathlics love to add all kinds of fairy tails to their religion. Take for example the Rings of Saturn, once taught to be the foreskin of Baby Jesus Himself!

            During the late 17th century, Catholic scholar and theologian Leo Allatius (Allacci Leone ) published the treatise De Praeputio Domini Nostri Jesu Christi Diatriba (“Discussion concerning the Prepuce of our Lord Jesus Christ”) in which he proposed that the Holy Foreskin had ascended into heaven at the same time as Jesus, and had become the recently observed rings of Saturn.

              The thief probably thought it could cure erectile dysfunction. The cathylicks are always parading around dead body parts of "saints" – they call them "relics".


              For centuries, on the 1st of January, the Holy Foreskin was paraded through the Italian town of Calcata. This practice continued until 1983, when the Holy Prepuce was stolen.

                    Boy, are you a mass of ignorance! You have been misled by the Servants of the Anti-Chirst, the vicar of Rome.
                    The word pope derives from Greek πάππας meaning "Father". In the early centuries of Christianity, this title was applied, especially in the east, to all bishops and other senior clergy, and later became reserved in the west to the Bishop of Rome, a reservation made official only in the 11th century. The earliest record of the use of this title was in regard to the by then deceased Patriarch of Alexandria, Pope Heraclas of Alexandria (232–248).

                      Friend, let me share with you some advice if I may be so bold.

                      Before you put your belief in something, know what it is.

                      Hello, my name is Mary. I hope to fellowship with you! That is, unless you don't listen to church authority (Deuteronomy 17:12); are a witch (Exodus 22:17); are a homosexual (Leviticus 20:13; Romans 1:24-32); or fortuneteller (Leviticus 20:27) or a snotty kid who hits their dad (Exodus 21:15); or curses their parents (Proverbs 20:20; Leviticus 20:9); an adulterer (Leviticus 20:10); a non-Christian (Exodus 22:19; Deuteronomy 13:7-12; Deuteronomy 17:2-5;Romans 1:24-32); an atheist (2 Chronicles 15:12-13); or false prophet (Zechariah 13:3); from the town of one who worships another, false god (Deuteronomy 13:13-19); were a non-virgin bride (Deuteronomy 22:20-21); or blasphemer (Leviticus 24:10-16), as God calls for your execution and will no doubt send you to Hell, and I have no interest developing a friendship with the Spiritually Walking Dead.

                        Yes, I understand. The catholic church isn't especially proud of it's "holy foreskin with miraculous powers," I'd wager it was not mentioned in the pamphlet you read on your church.

                        Plus Peter was not the first catholic pope.

                        Plus your pope is not infallible, no matter what he tells you.

                        Plus he was a Nazi.

                        Plus your organization is rife with institutionalized pedophilia.

                        Plus the host isn't magically transformed into the flesh of Jesus Christ for you to eat every Sunday.

                        Plus you pray to Mary, in direct opposition to biblical teachings. "Hail Mary, full of grace..."

                        Plus your priest doesn't have the God-given ability to forgive sin.

                        I could go on and on.

                        The catholic church is an ABOMINATION.

                          What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this? It looks to me like an uphill battle with little but pride, arrogance and error to meet you along the journey. But I like your focus on love. Maybe that will help. May the angels and saints be with you.

                            So you think associating with actual Christians is a bad thing? What about the Bible is incorrect? Because as True Christians(tm), we follow it just as it was written and God intended. Do tell us where Jesus was in error.

                            Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
                            Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

                              Hello James, I think that the treatment one gets on this site, if we are not one of you, is most unChristian. It calls to mind the hard heartedness that Jesus found in the Pharisees. Name calling and denigration abound. The real love of Jesus, the humility that Jesus taught may be here but I have not found it, I am sorry to say. If this is a taste of heaven I will be looking elsewhere. It is one thing to be confident in your beliefs, it is quite another to dismiss and abuse people you don't agree with. So "real Christians" here? God help us.
