why? maybe its because the root of this religion is demonic
history will tell u how demonic early catholics, particularly the leaders, were
maybe u already know these
but i think they are not totally demonic, they also do things that is of God and is written in the bible
the problem is they still dont want to remove those activities, ceremonies etc that i think they know already that are not biblical
maybe money is the reason, if they get money out ot those things, then they dont want to loose money
as written in the bible "love of money is the root of all evil"

That's a pretty broad (and bold) statement with no examples. If you mean they worship demons, they don't. And you might be more affected by demons for such an irresponsible posting.

If you mean they they believe that demons are real, that's true. Jesus spoke of Satan and his demons (fallen angels) often as reported in the Bible. Are you claiming to be a greater expert on spirits, good or evil, than Jesus?

Many other faiths also believe in demons. Psychologists will say that we create demons to blame for our mistakes so we don't have to accept responsibility for our actions. I believe there is truth to that statement for many.

But Christianity teaches that Satan is real and trying to lead you from God and His teachings. Christianity doesn't teach that you can blame Satan for your faults, but teaches individual responsibility for your actions (works). Christianity teaches you that many of your problems are the results of you turning away from God in your previous choices. This is not "God's punishment" but natural cause and effect.

What is demonic about a religion that summarizes its beliefs in the Nicene Creed (from the year 325)?

We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is seen and unseen.

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, one in being with the Father. Through Him all things were made. For us and our salvation He came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit, He was born of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate; He suffered, died, and was buried. On the third day He rose again in fulfillment of the scriptures: He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son, He is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

For a complete description of what Catholics believe, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/index.htm

With love in Christ.

I wonder that all of the time about every Abrahamic religion.

You know what, though? Catholicism has it head and shoulders above every form of Christianity with the sole exception of Orthodoxy. See, both Catholicism and Orthodoxy inspired people to express themselves in the height of art and poetry, architecture and mythological symbolism.

Yeah, they've got massive problems. Massive. But they're so much of an improvement over protestantism and Islam.

Hail Satan (I'm so demonic, too... must be why I like them),

Remember, we don't strive against each other but demons and spirits.

Their doctrine is obviously demonic, but that doesn't mean the people are bad, just mislead.

It is NOT the religion that is demonic. It is some of the people in the religion that are demonic.

Care to give specifics?

Demonic? No. Holy and santifying? Yes.

Oh. Another rant with a question mark thrown in.

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy;
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

because it is an organised cult of worshippers with a single leader.

and seeing as that leader has a very questionable past, combined with their political stance.

+PAX (Latin for Peace)

Why do you believe that we are demonic? We are not. We fight Satan and his demons.

I'm only curious why you would think this.
