re: Attended Catholic Church for the first time in a while and it wasn't the same

quote:

If you’re looking for textual bible evidence for every little thing Catholics believe, you’re barking up the wrong tree because we don’t believe that all aspects of the faith are captured in the Bible,

And the reason you believe that, is because church doctrine and dogma have taught you that it is okay to declare sinners, saints. And it's okay to call the church bureaucracy Father, when Jesus explicitly says to call no man Father. And it's okay to have a church sanctioned intermediary between yourself and God, who can bestow upon you absolution. And it's okay if the church decides to relocate a pedophile to victimize more children, rather than face justice. See how that works?
