I'll gladly tell you about it next time I see you though! Which better be soon!)<BR/><BR/>It was odd, because my dad is normally a very loving/understanding person on a lot of issues, but even he had a touch of a mental roadblock on the subject of Roman Catholicism. We came to a good understanding though - I basically said all the stuff you did but with less finesse and no analogies from Greek mythology (rest assured, the irony of using <I>Greek</I> mythos in a blog about <I>Roman</I> Catholicism was not lost on me). <BR/><BR/>So, if it gives you any peace of mind or whatnot on the matter that a 17 year old kid from the Lansing area agrees with you, then you've got it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30394392.post-83229720470970923082008-01-22T11:29:00.000-05:002008-01-22T11:29:00.000-05:00Mike:I used to believe that the Roman Catholic Chu...Mike:<BR/><BR/>I used to believe that the Roman Catholic Church was a cult, but then God called me to work at a museum on the grounds of a Benedictine abbey. I believe that protestants have been so separated from catholic and orthodox churches that they do not always see each other clearly. If all bible believing Christians left these two traditional branches of the body of Christ, who would lead their members to Jesus? God always leaves at least a reminant in these places. I fell perfectly at peace in any denominal church because I bring Jesus with me. I do love Calvary Church the most because of the exposition of the bible instead of sermons on why you should add to the building fund. Many of the people in protestant churches are just as lost as those in the Catholic and Orthodox churches. <BR/><BR/>FitzKlioAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
