I am proud to be Catholic and would like to point out head to head with Seventh Day Adventist that they should respect the Catholic teachings as we do respect their beliefs even though it a twisted lie.

Good for you. Being Catholic is good. I am not, but that is because I have a love/hate relationship with the RC Church. I took catechism there as a young adult. Then I became an Atheist. Not the churches fault. I just misunderstood what they were telling me at the time. I am an Episcopalian. We get to do the bells and smells, but don't have to obey Papa. What more could you ask for?
I don't understand the problem with the 7th day Adventist. I will have to go read up on it.
PS. I went to the Catholic news website. But I didn't see anything about the 7 day Adventist there. Could someone tell me what the problem is between the RC and them. I don't see any.

Dont be proud to be a catholic, the catholics and the irish were at war for many generations. thats why we have protestents. the only problem is, the Holy Ghost gave us more choices than these apostate sect by inspiring others to build up their own churches. the mormons were the first American church. And the Jehova witnesses were another in close 2nd and the Seventh Day adventists were another. even the first christians were apostates from the Jews. but they were saints! This practice denounces the popacy as being the ONEs who proclaim who saints are! Of course the Pope is declared Infalible. Well this doctrine is also used by all the other sectarian leaders! what a croc.! All mankind has been prone to making the wrong choices. Especially LOOK ast sodom and Gomorah, the majority of them chose the wrong path and God destroyed them.

I don't have anything personal against Catholics (one of my best girlfriends is catholic by the way); I might not totally agree with their teachings but I think there are good and honest people in the Catholic church.
I believe everything should be weighed by the Scriptures. I know the Catholic theology is based on the Scriptures and tradition, but try weighting the tradition with the Bible by yourself (of course, along with the Holy Spirit's help). I aready weighed mine with the Scriptures (Seventh-day Adventist). Every teaching, and everything "new" we're learning, should be judged by the Scriptures.
If we love Jesus with all our hearts, we'll accept His truth found in the Bible due to our love for Him.

Some would disagree and say Catholicism is a twisted lie. It is nothing near what Christ set up His Church to be. It has no priesthood authority, no tithing, no temples, no baptism by immersion, no prophet, no apostles. It DOES have things NOT in the bible, like celibacy, worship of Mary, making people into saints, nuns, popes, cardinals, etc. and it has no clue as to the real characteristic and form of God. Catholic churches have dead Christs hanging all over instead of a Living Christ. But I'm glad you are proud to be Catholic and I hope you can take a taste of your own medicine when you say other religions are twisted!

Did you know that the heads of the Catholic church said that the Seven day Advent Church is the enemy. Serious, go read it up on Catholic news.com, or immaculate.com. So you see, your religion has a problem with mine. In anycase, your question on what we know about catholic teachings, wich one, the teaching for the inner circle, or outer cirlce? You know that the catholic system has 2 types of teachings

I am Catholic also but your topic is too vague.
Catholicism is the only faith that pays attention to the last supper. When Christ said, "This is my body, which will be given up for you. Do this in memory of me." Protestants harp on the Bible and everything in it, but ignore what they want so they can create a thousand different denominations. The Eucharist is what brings us closer to Jesus. All things are possible through God. This world may be an accident, but it's one miraculous accident in my opinion. Atheists are too afraid to believe in what they can't see.

Ever hear this one - Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16:18
Read "Fast Facts on False Teachings" by Ron Carlson/Ed Decker before telling others they believe twisted lies.

i am not called to respect the RCC lies. Jesus never did it. although He loved the sinner but hated the sin. i understand that your teachings and beliefs are based on man made traditions and not biblical teaching. i have nothing against the catholic individual, just against the Papacy
