Answer 1

trust me we're not the only ones, so does the christian church who started way before we did.

Answer 2

The authority of the Church rests on three pillars:

Scripture- The Bible is the inerrant word of God and is to be read as the earliest Christians read it: in the light of Tradition and under the guidance of those ordained to teach.

Tradition-the teachings which the Church has preserved and passed down from Christ, His Apostles, and the unanimous teachings of the early Church Fathers .

Magisterium - the teaching authority of the Church under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

The Church has 7 Sacraments -- "outward signs of invisible grace" and media of sanctifying grace. The Sacraments were given to us by Christ so that we may receive His grace and become more like Him. The Seven Sacraments are:

Baptism
Confirmation -Sacrament of the Seal
Eucharist
Penance
Holy Matrimony
Holy Orders
Extreme Unction

The Church teaches by looking not only at Sacred Scripture, but into History and by reading what the earliest Christians have written, what those who've sat on the Chair of Peter have spoken consistently with Scripture and Tradition, and what they've solemnly defined.
To believe that the Bible is our only source of Christian Truth is unbiblical and illogical

Answer 3

Has it changed the way you think about your church? Has it made you question your own salvation? Has it changed the way you worship God? For me it has not done any of these. I am the same person I was the moment before anything or a whole lot of nothing was said. Let it go there is a real enemy out there and it is not the Catholics. Granted we may worship differently but look at some of these questions and answers out there. Is this really the battle that needs to be waged.
Yours in Christ,

Answer 4

As a Roman Catholic, I do not shove my religion down anyone's throat. Ever. I do not knock on doors, hand out literature, or anything of the sort. If my friends visit my church, it's because they ask first, not because I pester them about it. I believe in people's right to believe whatever they wish, and if their opinions differ from mine, so be it. In RCIA classes, which must be taken prior to Confirmation, information is offered to questioners free of charge and with no obligation whatsover to actually convert. If they take the courses, but choose not to convert, that's their business.

Answer 5

I am not a catholic but I believe in the catholic ways, the many charities and the catholic hospitals. I have known other religions and denominations which shove it down peoples throats.

Answer 6

Why would you even suggest this? When did the Church shove anything down your throat? Offering the road to salvation and preaching love doesn't add up to forcing anything. Maybe you better rethink your question.

Answer 7

Perhaps you have not read The Revelation to John in the Bible.

Consider, the widely held belief that the "Whore of Babylon" is indeed the Catholic church.

It certainly fits and you can be sure that retribution will be just.

Answer 8

My view is undoubtedly as sincere and error-prone as yours. I have a strong gag reflex, but I continue to identify myself as a Catholic.

Answer 9

Not only that, they have a lot of deceit and corruption to answer for too. Not to mention the paedophile scandals. Goddamn, I don't know how they find time for their church business with all this **** to sort out.
