You raise many good points. Note that there are many prominent non-Catholic Christian who are sometimes in our national/local news getting jailed, invstigated etc. and the list includes Baptists. The Catholic stuff has died down a bit here but is never going away either. It seems to be a tragic human weakness. I know that if a man says he is a born-again Christian it means he usually is. Whereas people will say they are Catholic if it is only in their family background. Clearly , there are not a billion practicing, believing Catholics in the world. Nevertheless today's Catholic Churches are full to overflowing and the biggest Christian bookshop I have ever been is Catholic and they seem to be selling shelf loads of Scripture. I don't really now how much Bible reading is been done. I have discovered the theology of Catholicism, Anglo-Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy is the most biblical. My advice is don't ever accept far-fetched explanations from Study Bibles, Christians etc. for difficult verses. Don't accept housegroup 'Greek scholars' dismissing difficult verses: if you go to the original Greek black is white and down is up. Best Wishes |

Dalcent and others, May I suggest that this and other threads are getting far afield from the purpose of this Forum, which is the study of the Bible, not Church history. We are not going to solve all the problems and division of the past 500 years of Christianity here. And we certainly should not expect to be convincing others of our poisition, nor should we be attacking one another. I find the best practice to be stating one's position and understanding and why and letting that satnd on its own merits, then leaving it at that. This whole argument began due the intemperate remarks of a person who is no longer posting. The blaze is still burning long after he was consumed by his handiwork. Perhaps we can get back to where we were before this started before we and the Forum meet the same fate. Emmaus |

Emmaus and others: I agree with Emmaus. A debate (fight) between persons who are anti-Catholic and persons who are anti-Protestant is clearly outside the scope, intent and purpose of Study Bible Forum. Remember: Posting to the forum is not a right, it is a privilege; to abuse it is to lose it. Grace to all, Kalos |
