Too bad for you.
Christianity in general and Catholicism in particular
are not at the top of my study list.
I have been told a lot of things over the years.
So has my wife.
Some of them at face value seemed plausible (e.g. idols).
Will Bowen posed some arguments I had never heard before.
Like I said, being open-minded, this made me question my
prior position.
You don't want to believe that, fine, be that way...
End of thread from my part.
