I grew up, enjoying the Catholic church. I'm 25, and will be honest, in the last 4-5 years my faith hasn't been as strong as it use to be. But now, I have an incredible person, so strong in her beliefs... she is so good hearted, but she has trouble with my beliefs. She doesn't understand me when I say "We do this because its tradition" and she asks "Where in the Bible does it say to do that?" ... I feel I'm set up for failure on any discussion. If it's the Bible she wants to base her faith off of... how can I help myself become more educated to help her understand? and if there is any proof, written in the Bible (that can help me show her) why Catholics are right... I would appriciate it. I've never considered myself right and others wrong, I'm tolerant. She is not... she wants to define truth, right vs wrong... wants me saved by her understanding of what saved is.... It's her challenging me that makes my Catholic faith stronger. Please help! I'm ok with her, she isn't with me :(
