Hi all, I read , Sheril Daniel's mail with interest. But is the Catholic Church one among the lot? After the explicit clarification by the Holy See, "Dominus Jesus", there should be no doubt. See the link http://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/congregations/cfaith/documents/rc_con_cfaith_doc_20000806_dominus-iesus_en.html and go through the topic IV. UNICITY AND UNITY OF THE CHURCH. Eventhough it may hurt the feelings of our separate bretheren, one must uphold firmly the truth that, the Catholic Church is the One Church.
I am reminded of a story about Bl.John XXIII.The story is told that, when it was announced that Protestant leaders would be invited to the council ( Vatican II ) as observers, the conservative Cardinal Ottaviani was horrified. He said: "But Your Holiness, Protestants are heretics!" "Do not say, 'heretics,' my son. Say, 'separated brethren.'" "They are in league with the devil!" "Do not say, 'devil,' my son. Say, 'separated angel.'" Love Alphus Pathrose, Kochi, India. LAUNCH - Your Yahoo!
