The Catholic Church is the one, true Church established by Jesus Christ after His ressurection. It is the only Church that is universal, holy and apostolic.

Look around you at the dogmatic division and spiritual confusion in the Protestant sects and you will see that the "Reformation" was not of God who is NOT the author of confusion.

I encourage all Bible Christians to give a second look at the Church that produced the Canon of the Holy Bible!

This week, the Holy Office of the Inquisition gave a statement saying non-Catholic churches "cannot be called 'churches' in the proper sense." In other words, only Catholic Christians are real Christians. This is how the Pope defines the Catholic Church.

If you truly feel that the Catholic church is the best then you need to go church shopping. If you want to deny yourself the pleasure of having a close and personal relationship with Jesus Christ then go ahead and stay catholic. My religion teaches that you do not have to have a person to repent to. That is between you and your risen savior. If you truly believe that God is so superficial to believe in purgatory then yeah the catholic way is the best. God specifically says what we need to do to get to heaven in the bible and I know that paying money to the church and having your relatives pray for you is not it. The whole fact that people within the church has to pay money so that their loved ones can be prayed out of purgatory is ridiculous. It is too easy for people to separate their church lives from their everyday lives. I think that the catholic church is a huge contributor to that thinking.

Really? The Roman Catholic Church contends that its origin is the death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ in approximately 30 A.D. The Catholic Church proclaims itself to be the Church that Jesus Christ died for, the Church that was established and built by the Apostles. Is that the true origin of the Catholic Church? On the contrary. Even a cursory reading of the New Testament will reveal that the Catholic Church does not have its origin in the teachings of Jesus, or His apostles. In the New Testament, there is no mention of the papacy, worship / adoration of Mary (or the immaculate conception of Mary, the perpetual virginity of Mary, the assumption of Mary, or Mary as co-redemptrix and mediatrix), petitioning saints in Heaven for their prayers, apostolic succession, the ordinances of the church functioning as sacraments, infant baptism, confession of sin to a priest, purgatory, indulgences, or the equal authority of church tradition and Scripture.

Actually they seem to be the best at trying to brainwash people into joining their faith,and how is it right to ask people for money who come to the church?

I think people who claim they are atheist---- are almost hillarious. Like it or not you have to choose not to believe something, in order to fall in that catagory. Everyone has a belief. Opinions come from them..... atheism=a cry for help! Plain and simple.....

Is it really? Do tell! Are you saying that because you believe it or because you think the pope is a great guy (you did hear what he did, right?)? Or is it because you're trying to irritate people?
