if this is what it is (quoting from another asnwer): "A church that is so open minded that they doubt their own faith, take the Bible as fairtales, mostly false, and believe that Jesus was a sinner.... and that salvation is obtained by good deeds..."
it sounds to me like this is a church i might consider being a part of, since i believe pretty much as they do regarding jesus, salvation (if there is such a thing) and the bible. however, i have no doubt that i don't believe in any god...
i woulnd't call them catholics, because they sound anything but... but i would call them believers who are not afraid to confront their fears, and who understand you can have faith without being a blind fool who refuses to listen to the alternatives. in the end, their faith will be stronger than that of many a devout roman catholic.

All right. Sorry, but I've had it with all these different people bashing the Catholic church and trying to force their Protestant religion on others. Maybe the best place to get answers about the Catholic church would be from a priest or a nun. I have asked the nuns and the priest at my local church lots of questions about other religions, and they were very open about the pros and cons of those religions. I even had a priest suggest I go to an Eastern Orthodox mass for the experience! So stop bashing Roman Catholics about how awful and close sighted we are because we aren't!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My apologies to the person who asked the question, I just needed to vent a little. Sorry.

The "Liberal Catholic Church" is a denomination that is not part of the real Catholic Church and was in fact founded by an Anglican. It sounds like just another Protestant denomination to me.

They would NOT have apostolic secession if the broke away from the Roman Catholic Church especially if they ordain women to the episcopate.

It's an oxymoron. Liberals don't know what it means to be Catholic.

Yes. There is no such thing. It is not liberal when you speak of using military force against "heretics" that don't believe as you do. Want sources? Contact me!

WATER AND OIL DON'T MIX, THEY CALL THEMSELVES CHRISTIAN, BUT THEY ARE NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF PRACTICING SINNERS AND FALSE CHRISTIANS....
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT CHRISTIANS ARE TO BE SEPARATE FROM THE WORLD, NOT IN UNISON...

Just another protestant group... one of thousands and thousands. No need to be confused; the devil likes confusion.
