Imagine what the world would be like if people focused on their own sins rather than look for sin in others.
Considering the current agenda of making a "universal church" led by the pope I think its reasonable to want to understand who this church is following. We are known by our fruits. Does the Catholic church have the fruits that Jesus speaks about in the Bible. There has been some pretty bold statements from the Catholic church. There's also been a lot of media stories that would have anyone question is this Jesus-like behavior. The catholic church is the one who took away Bibles called the 'dark ages". It's important to know who we follow. We are told to test all things 1 Thessalonians 5 Test all things; hold fast what is good

Current agenda? The Catholic Church has always been known as the universal church...

To them. The agenda to have 'One Universal Church" the National Sunday law the pope currently is working with World Leaders on including the US .

If they are the Universal Church even more so to question what they stand for. They are not the only option.

The spiritual church of believers is a condemned heresy! The church is visible the kingdom of God on earth!
Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, then My servants would be fighting so that I would not be handed over to the Jews; but as it is, My kingdom is not of this realm." - [John 18:36]

People are focused on their own sins ... just not on eliminating them or even confronting them. ;)

It is known that the Catholic church teaches there own doctrine that is outside of the Bible. This is what I am referring to.
I apologize for the picture from The Onion. I did not see that.

What are these pictures supposed to show?
They show someone (in addition to the artist) had really bad taste in Art in 1971 when they commissioned THAT statue from THAT artist to represent the "resurrection" of Christ in a new Vatican building ... 'cause it is overall pretty UGLY, the blobs appear to have faces (making them a little creepy), and Jesus Christ has no legs, cartoon hair and looks more like a corpse than "glorified".

  • As far as proving that the RCC worships a serpent ... that is silly.
  • As far as suggesting a post-modern intellectual elitism in the RCC leadership that is out of touch with most of the common people ... they may have a point.

Because of all the flaming, this thread is closed. The flaming included using wide angle photos that were originally done to distort the auditorium of the Vatican , and was done to flame the Catholic church as Satanic. Promoting that view will lead to a site ban.
A clean up was done.
