I read your answers and noone really addressed your question
they all say how great jesus and the church is but at the same time ignoring the sins of the church like their afraid to own up to it.
Thousands of priests have abused hundreds of thousands of children and all the church did was move them to another parish
where they could do this again.People with very little give so much to the church that coninues to lie to them.The church is supposed to lead by example but I see so many not following that example its abhorrant when will people learn that organized religon was intended to control people by telling them what they can and cant do but the priests are free to do as they please

What is miraculous is that even after 2000 years of corrupt human sin, the Roman Catholic Church is still in existence and growing! No other human organization can claim its equal.
The gates of hell shall not prevail against the Church of Christ!
Mt 16:18, Is 9:6-7, Dan 2:44 Lk 1:32-33, Mt 7:24, Mt 13:24-20 my favorite in response to this question! Jn 14:16, Mr 28:19-20
Your question only proves it authenticity!
Praise be Jesus Christ now and forever.
Nice attempt though...

Being a Christian doesn't mean being against and doing the opposite of all of the things that God tells us to do. Man does that all on his own. God says to " Love one another as I have loved you." And He also says "What you do to the least of these you have also done to me."
Did that priest do what God told him to do? No he did not. He did what he wanted to do, he followed his flesh and his own desires. The Lord says to "Seek he the kingdom of Heaven first..." (paraphrased)
It is unfair to those of us that truly strive for the perfection of Christ to be labeled along with those that use the name of Christ as a cover for their immoral behavior. Please don't misunderstand me , The Bible says that 'Many will strive for the perfection of Christ but will fall short of the kingdom of Heaven".(para)
That man may have been called to serve God, but if he was, he allowed sin to enter in and he acted on a horrible thing. He knew it was wrong and if he doesn't get punished in this life, he will get punished in the next.
Many will stand before God on Judgment Day and say" I cast out devils in your name and healed the sick in your name, and the Lord will say ' depart from me you workers of iniquity , I know you not."

No. They don't have the capacity for rational thought when it comes to religion. It doesn't matter how many priests molest young boys. They believe because they have faith. They're not idiots, or even stupid- they're brainwashed.

And you're trying to do what, exactly, oh altruistic liberator?

Catholics aren't Christians... they would like to think that they are, but they're not.
