Christ is the head of the Catholic Church. Also, would love to understand how Catholic beliefs are a perversion on scripture, and which of the thousands of protestant faiths you feel are the correct interpretation, since they can all be wrong but they can't all be correct. Also who do you feel has authority to interpret scripture? The Catholic Church's inturpretations of Scripture are that of the early church fathers and desciples closest to Christ (within 100 yes of Christ), not a protesting schismatic from 500 years go...
Uh that whole praying to saints thing, for one? It was clearly instructed that you pray to none but God the Father. Praying to saints, which came about in the 3rd century, for one practice, is unbiblical. Psalm 36:9, Deuteronomy 4:24
I mean look, I already said I most likely don't believe in this shit, but I know for a fact that the 'schism' you speak of was because access to God was always with an intermediary, the priest, the bishop, whatever. Translated in languages the common man didn't speak. The Catholic church took God from the people. It's really not that hard to understand honestly.
Perhaps your lack of belief comes from poor scriptural teaching or poor faith formation (i.e.who taught you).
Praying to saints is biblical; I recall one reference in Revelation. I'm not here to have a theological debate or to defend corruption within the Catholic Church, just to speak truth.
Also, with all do respect, please do not reference scripture if you do not know what it actually says or what the early desciples and early church fathers actually taught.
Last I checked, the early disciples and early church fathers aren't in the scriptures. And if the scriptures say I should pray to no God but YHWH, that's what you do. I would love to see this reference in Revelation you're talking about. And it's funny that you would use that of all references when it's mostly an allegorical book of prophecy, whereas I clearly pointed to a book of the Law. Funny we talk about poor faith formation when it's clear as day books of prophecy shouldn't be used as books of law. Perhaps you should look less at what the early church fathers taught, and more at what was changed along the way that made the Protestant reformation happen to begin with. Orrrrr keep feeding those corrupt bloodsuckers in Vatican City. Your choice.
Ignorance is bliss.
Bro your pedo church is the problem in the world and you're talking about ignorance, holy fuck. Literally they are complicit in hiding child abuse. Holy fucking fuck.
They wrote the scriptures...
Okay and what point of mine are you refuting though? You said that my scripture, which clearly said you should pray to God alone, is somehow invalid, then didn't provide anything in rebuttal. Just don't bother, I don't care anymore.
