Anonymous Coward User ID: 68476868 United States 05/08/2015 02:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As a Christian first, and a Catholic second- the Protestant obsession with Catholics reminds me of the University of Texas and Texas A&M college rivalry. If you attended UT, you know that the only day of the year you care that Texas A&M exists, at lest in terms of a traditional rival, was when UT was playing Texas A&M on Thanksgiving. But at Texas A&M, their hatred of UT runs so strangely deep, they actually wear shirts or put stickers on their cars depicting the hate, often times more so than wearing their own school's colors. I remember one year when I attended UT, the rivalry game was being hosted at UT that year...Texas A&M fans were arrested for pissing on the Texas capitol building's steps as a show of hate...for UT. If you're going to practice Christianity in these strange days we live in, then practice it wholeheartedly. Do not divide Christian brothers and sisters because they wear a funny hat or have a different takeaway from Scripture than your own interpretation. Ask questions and learn from each other, perhaps test the resolve of each others' faith? Absolutely. Alienate and belittle? Your self-diagnosed absolution will only magnify the continuance of the global persecution and minimization of Christian values. |

-GLP-Christian- User ID: 69095847 Sweden 05/08/2015 07:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's not just that. Catholics are idolaters, the Bible tells us this about idolater: Ps 115:4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. Ps 115:5 They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not: Ps 115:6 They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not: Ps 115:7 They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat. Ps 115:8 They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them. Notice how the idolater is blind. it's repeated again in: Ps 135:15 ¶ The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. Ps 135:16 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not; Ps 135:17 They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths. Ps 135:18 They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth in them. and that's just two of many other places that forbids idolatry but that the catholic priest promotes, every catholic church is full of idols, the official catholic site has a webshop that sells idols to the blind to keep them in blindness. Only way for these idolaters to see is if Jesus opens their spiritually blinded eyes but only then. If they are not willing he will not open their eyes and they will continue straight into hell.
