1. They worship others than Yahweh.
2. They bow down to and make images.
3. They blaspheme and do disservice to the name of Yahweh making it of no effect.
4. They forsake the true Sabbath and do not keep it kodosh.
5. They do not honor their mother and father in the sense it is meant in the commandments.
6. They have murdered, and continue to murder, people.
7. They commit adultery, mot just literally through their priesthood and defend the priests, nuns, and pope himself, but practice spiritual adultery against Yahweh.
8. They steal from the poor, or ignorant of the world through vain religion, or by murdering them and taken what had been the victims, as is the case with the hugenots of France. And the Latino's and the like in South America.
9. They lie, by falsely accusing true believers.
10. They covet the true faith once delivered to the saints and pretend to have it through their false religion.

Sola Fide
Sola Scriptura
denial of the Real Presence
Once saved Always saved
no wait.... those are the unbiblical practices of some the Semi -Catholic Protestants
Matey, just about all the practices of the Old Testament are pagan in origin and parrallel those other earlier religions
Face it,all Christians have much more in common than not and you are shooting at your own family
Catholics Orthodox and Trinitarian Protestants are all Christians in the essentialist sense

Well actually if the Holy See is pagan then all other churches derived from it are also pagan. These Protestant churches have no direct connection to any of the Churches founded by the apostles. Only Orthodoxy and Catholicism can rightfully claim to be the two original branches of Christianity and thus the historical right to be called Christian.

There is no Pagan Catholic Church. Get your screws on straight. There is Catholic, Coptic and Orthodox. That's it. Many of the practices were never in the Bible, so get over it.
Insulting others doesn't win friends to argue your point.

There are no unbiblical practices of the Catholic Christian church. Every doctrine is substantiated by Scripture.
In any event, who are you to determine that Catholicism is "pagan?" At last notice, we still worship God the Father Almighty, and Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. That would make us Christians.
And are you aware that your hatred of your brothers and sisters in Christ makes you no better than a murderer?
1 John 3:14-15 We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.
Edit:
Not one of the accusations leveled at us by your fellow Catholic-bashers is true -- not one. Those of us who know what our faith teaches have answered all these lies about the Church in other posts.
I suppose it's asking too much for everyone to do a little research and then believe what we have to say? Or is that too much like love for the brethern?

Yeah - what ARE the "unbiblical practices" of the Church that compiled the Bible for its own use, from its own writings?? Now there's a question that really makes a lot of sense.
Here's another one ... How can a member of a manmade tradition of thousands of conflicting denominations that can't agree on a single biblical passage - and which exists in direct violation of the stated will of God, "that they all may be ONE" - speak of what is "unbiblical" with a straight face??

I don't believe that Catholics are pagan. I think that many of their beliefs are wrong, but their doctrines of God are orthodox. They have the correct doctrine of the Father, they have the correct doctrine of the Son, and they have the correct doctrine of the Holy Spirit. They believe in the trinity. They believe in many of the core tenets of faith that you and I hold to. Therefore I do not believe that it is proper to call them pagans. Misguided, perhaps, but not pagan.

(1) The doctrine that the mother of Jesus was born without sin. Immaculate conception, added to the church dogma about the year 431
(2) The doctrine of purgatory, added to church dogma about the year 593
(3) Veneration of angels and dead saints, added to church dogma about the year 310
(4) The 'Mass' as a daily celebration, in which the bread is miraculously turned into the body of Jesus, added about the year 394
(5) The introduction of the Papacy, the Pope being infallible, added to church dogma and practice about 610
(6) Worship of the cross and relics added about 788
(7) Canonization of dead saints introduced about 995
(8) Celibacy of priesthood, added about 1079
(9) Praying the rosary, introduced about 1090
(10) Sale of indulgences, added about 1190
(11) Bible forbidden to laymen about 1229
(12) Communion cup forbidden to laity about 1414

Some of these dates are kind of mis-leading, as these dogmas were embellished in later years, by succeeding Popes.

1Co 15:29 in any different case, what's going to they do, those being baptized on behalf of the lifeless? If the lifeless are under no circumstances raised, why certainly are they baptized on behalf of the lifeless? i develop right into a catholic and not as quickly as develop into it taught that folk could be baptized for the lifeless, i've got self assurance it quite is a Mormon prepare. There are a number of interpretations of what Paul develop into speaking of. some think of he develop into addressing the Jews who engaged in ceremonial washing after touching a lifeless physique. Baptism is purely an outward act exhibiting an inward exchange, no longer something greater. the only place the place catholics can remotely draw the assumption of purgatory from is the e book of Macabbees. the assumption of purgatory is going against the Biblical theory that Christ's sacrifice develop into completely sufficient for the forgiveness of the sins of the believers. by potential of believing that one desires to be "purged" of sin, says that Christ's artwork develop into inadequate and incomplete. Rev 5:8 And while He took the scroll, the 4 living creatures and the twenty 4 elders fell down in the previous the Lamb, each and every having harps, and golden bowls full of incenses, that are the prayers of the saints. The saints are all believers in Christ, it quite is the Biblical term for saints. they do no longer seem to be specific people provided that call by potential of the Vatican. i will sight many verses in Scripture the place believers in the international are referred to as saints. it quite is uncertain who's stated as "living creatures" in vs, 11, must be those in Christ who've died. however the prayers of the saints refers to all of the saints, or believers in Christ.

Never heard of it...where is it located?
If they are unbiblical, does that mean trhey actually think for themselves? Don't believe in imaginary gods? Might be worth checking out!
