Honeyb, I don\'t know how to put this. All Catholics have this huge mythical ring around the pope, and to them, it\'s almost sacrilegious to touch this ring. One time in my high school days, I had just begun to investigate some of the Catholic beliefs. I told my father a biblical truth that disproved one of the Catholic doctrines. He almost took off my head. I think he disowned me that day.
My mother, and most of my associates who are Knights, back home, will be the first to tell your that the Pope is God\'s representative on earth. Even as old as I am, today, if I wanna eat in the house, I better not sas the Catholic Church within my mother\'s hearing distance.
I tell you, Catholics are confused on the issue of papal status. Some say he is God, others say he is not. While some say he is human, and therefore, imperfect, many believe in the infalability of the pope. Go figure. ?
It doesn\'t matter which pope succeeds whom; their doctrine remains the same. They have a set doctrines diametrically opposed to bible doctrine. God is not a God of confusion, but the Cathlics do their very best to make him out to be one. How can he be God\'s representative and yet teaches an opposing doctrine?
