Original sin is the sin from Adam and the fall. The rcc teaches that out of all the people in the world, Mary was the only one to escape this and that God kept her from having this sin, and kept her from ever sinning, in direct contradiction to scripture.

Christ really did promise to teach us. God really did promise that he would put His laws into our hearts and minds. Its not all that difficult either. All we must do is ask God and also read the words of Christ and those of Paul, and forget everything else. Its not a sin to do so. No one needs a denomination. We dont need any denomination.
I get your point brother, because it is possible that the "denomination" takes precedence over the living God Himself and His only begotten Son, Who God the Father sent to die for us in order to reconcile us to Himself.
Thank you kindly for sharing brother.
(This would be an excellent study.)
Are we still discussing scripture missing dogmas?
Not my Church, I'm not Catholic. I am a Liturgical Christian who follows verifiable orthodox Christianity not evangelical protestantismThere are various canons of scripture used by various branches of Christianity. Your denomination determined its own canon at the Council of Trent. It is absurd for you to say that you use the whole Bible when there are other branches of Christianity with more books in their canon than you have in yours. They could just as easily say that they have the "whole Bible" and you don't.
Hence the referenceNot my Church, I'm not Catholic. I am a Liturgical Christian who follows verifiable orthodox Christianity not evangelical protestantism
And it is one, among many dogmas, that you denomination has added to the Bible. Would that all such dogmas were as innocuous as a ToC!
OK, the 66 books are holy scripture, everything else is debatable. Why debate when we can spend that time searching, discussing and meditating on said scriptures?

Debatable to you, maybe. Not to Catholics. We know there's 72.
I could count many steps which RC has taken that are far away from what the apostles teach us. However that would not help anyone because you have already heard it all and i see no reason to walk in the flesh. I know where my heart is and so does the Lord. Im content with Him being my judge.
It's very easy to say something and not back it up. So, either back it up, or stop saying it. What steps has the Catholic Church taken, in matters of faith and morals, that are far away from what the apostles teach us.
Sure, all four Marian dogmas.

Though I'm sure all of this knowledge will fall on willingly deaf ears...
Just for clarification, that would mean that Mary was the "sinless" one then, and thus it omits Jesus the Christ as sinless, and that Mary would be the "one" to die on the cross for our sins, is that correct?
Thank you kindly.
