  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Rinse and repeat

Seems like poster doesn’t understand the sacrament. She’s Protestant and is only a guest here.
Former Catholic. Still a guest.

warriorAngel, I didn’t want to offend you. I didn’t know it was dedicated to Catholics. But let me tell you that I was a catholic for the most part of my life. My whole family is. I remember when I was at church the priest quoting from the Bible. I volunteer at a christian bookstore and we sell Bibles to the catholics. So what are you telling me? Just explain please. is the canon the same thing for you as the Bible? I was a little girl and I prayed before going to bed. For me, praying is natural. I do it quite often during the day. That’s why I suggested it and added a priest wasn’t necessary in that case
Yes the Church decided canon which later was known as the Bible.

The Mass quotes the Bible 56 times whereas a former Protestant said it is only quoted a couple times otherwise and then an exegesis.

The problem is…
Former Catholics have no true knowledge of history or the permanent and continuous tradition of truth.
Which is from the beginning the same it is today.

May the Lord lead you to know the truth if that’s your truest desire.

My challenge to you if you’re up for it…

Go listen to Catholic apologetics on this and discern from them.
