The Catholic church in many 'Free churches' today is seen as a cult.

There teachings and followings contradict the Bible strongly. Many catholic followers accept their faith but not whole heartedly, some say they believe in certain acpects and others disagree with certain notions, but as Christians we cant have one foot in christ and one foot in the world.

In a catholic church their are countless images/statues of Mary! Ten commandments state do not worship idols, however the catholic and some demoniations of the protestant church, say the hail mary, a prayer asking Mary for blessings and to pray for sinners, when she is dead!

when we die the dead know nothing, catholics made the assumption that mary was accended to heaven, even though it does not state in the bible and in 195.. Mary was crowned Queen Of Heaven by the Pope.

did u know the Pope is Sinless in the eyes of the catholic church, he is without sin, them without sin do not die, so why have so many popes died?

Padre Pio, Maria Ezperanza are all people that the Catholic church idolise, Maria is a woman, alive today who is said to bio-locate, levatate, had the holy ghost in her mouth to name a few, Padre Pio suffered from Stigmata, so he is said to bare the wounds of chirst. There is a Prayer to him.

there are so many topics that Catholics arent aware of... Do you think or disagree with the Catholic church being seen as a cult?

Hello all, First off, how can you expect the followers of the Catholic church to be righteous and correct in their beliefs when the Roman Catholic church itself was an abomination. Do you know what the Romans use to do? Lots of the most famous men or Greece and Rome where openly gay or Bi-sexual, committed all kinds of autrocitys and even had wild sexual orgies.How is the pope sinless in believers eyes? ThePope Alexzander, one of the most famous and powerful popessent many of his solidiers to murder people and capture other territories. Even the pope's son Ceasare Boriga was one the most corrupted dangerous people in all of Italy!!Hekilled more people then Napolian and people want to see him as the example for their church? Another pope was best friends with the man who sold Sinai to the germans for the Holocaust and another pope sanctioned slavery and the inferiority of black people so why would anyone follow anything that has to do withthe Roman cathlic church?

TheRoman Cathlic Church them selves, took books out of the bible and added things to suit their already established beliefs like the book of Maryand many more, so how can you believe anything they say? And since protestants, lutheran and all the churchs of today are spin offs of the original catholic church, they are pretty much all ofthe same origins, just different rituals and traditions. Knowing all of this, how could anyone be a catholic is beyond me.

Even the people that practice Catholism donn't realize it but they are mixing ancient egyptian deities with their religion. All those saints were originally apart of the Egyptian muliple God belief and later the greeks and romans. Even Latinos I see mix their Catholic beliefs with African Deities. So you see, the original Roman Catholic church was based on corruption, murder and power therefore future believers will be either just as corrupted as their leadersor totally dissillusioned about their religion, history, practices or its origins.


To believe is to have doubt and no facts but to know is to have facts and no doubt.

First of all, Christianity started off as a cult itself....



bighairlolBut how canprotestants callthe Catholic church a cult when THEY are the ones who broke off from IT and decided to start their own little group?

Baptists, Methodists, Episcopalians....they all sprung from the Catholic church and left under the leadership of Martin Luther as "protestants" protesting the rules of the pontiffs of Rome.


I have to laugh as some ignorant Christians who don't consider Catholics as Christian.

Catholics are closer to being true Christians than Protestants are because they incorporatee faith as well as works, have more of the original books in their bible, still take the sacrement, and still maintain a priesthood.

i disagree with everything u said. Baptists and Methodists etc are all followers of christ, we follow and abide by the bibles teachings, which are all clearly stated for all eyes to c, the catholic church do things that arent necc in the bible, they take a verse and add to it, before your so fast to make your judgement on other faiths, reasearch, look into it!

what many protestants do is follow the word and stick to it! full stop!

Innocently:


i disagree with everything u said.

I figured you would.

blkdevillolSatan is an adversary by nature.




Baptists and Methodists etc are all followers of christ,

Wrong again....

Baptists are followers of Thomas Helwys and Methodists are followers of John Wesley.




we follow and abide by the bibles teachings, which are all clearly stated for all eyes to c, the catholic church do things that arent necc in the bible,

So do you....

Like go to school.

Drive a car

Eat pizza

....pee.



Those things aren't in the bible...but you do them don't you?


So why pick on the Catholics?
