    catholics, i am a protestant, i want to hear you

    And did they "incur death"? At whose hands did they die by? Inquisition?

    I brought up the filioque, James Bond, because I backed off in another thread that was in OBOB on the subject of why Catholics say THEY are "the one true church" when Orthodox have just as much right to say that. But in this thread, in a. Forum that is not Catholic per se, I want to pursue...

    Seasons Come and Seasons Go

    The Byrds had a great song from this passage.

    Nicene Creed originally did NOT have the filioque. It is carved on steps of Vatican sans filioque. The Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father.

    Halloween Ideas for Youth

    The youth at the United Methodist church I used to go to WROTE THEIR OWN CREED. It was very good, and was used in liturgy along with Apostle' s Creed, Nicene, Canadian, and other creeds in the hymnal. Maybe the kids could compose a Halloween Creed.

    Methodists use Welch' s grape juice, Episcopalians use wine. Yew kin drink from a common cup, or little individual plastic cup - yer choice - and yew kin tare off a hunk of real bread or take a sorry little wafer as hard as a rock. It is NOT "merely symbolic" IMO. If coca cola and Oreo...

    If anyone here thinks God has a LITERAL "right hand", well, I - I give up.

    I believe in a Real Presence, but have no explanation for it. Transubstanstian confuses me. I try to keep an open mind on Perpetual Virginity of Mary. It is not a matter of dogma to me. My main objection is to Papal authority. No reason I can see that Bishop of Rome is somehow "higher" than...

    What about the elephant in the room?

    I don't think Protestants are more aware of corruption in the Catholic Church than Catholics are. Protestants have scandals too. When one part of the body hurts - we all hurt. But we will not be prevailed against.

    Sola Scriptura is nonsense, isn't it?

    I would not call ANY of the methods of guidance "nonsense" Papal Magesterium, Metropolitan Magisterium, Sola Scriptura, or Wesleyan Quadrilateral. But the first move regarding Sola Scriptura would be to define the SCOPE of Scripture. Just 66 books of Protestant Bible? Sorry, that leaves out...
