I'm so blessed to have been born Protestant. I really don't give a shite what that loser has to say.

I got into the Sistine Chapel for free when I went. I think they do it because the flash has a negative effect on the paintings.

I know! If you don't agree with what your pastor has to say, you can spiral off and form your own church. How American. Also very unbiblical.

He isnt saying anything much different then what Jesus taught..jesus told us many things we have a hard time accepting. Protestants dont follow Jesus teaching?

They wouldn't even allow non-flash photography, so try again.

Not at all. Protestants just realized what a farce and unholy institution the Catholic Church was. I consider it evil at its core.

I agree on your first point. My only point is that I quite literally don't care what the pope says one way or another. He's just another man with no more connection to God than any other.

True, and he'd agree with that statement

That may be true, but I dont think that is up to you to make that distinction

Tradition says he pays an important role in the Lord's church he's pretty relevant in that regard

The entire concept of a pope is antibiblical horse manure.

He's a delusional fool in a white dress.

A. The guy saying I'm Protestant, I don't care what that guy says, is missing the bigger picture.
B. The Protestant Reformation was far beyond "not liking what the pastor says" and tried to reform the RCC, not spin off.
C. The Protestant Reformation occurred in Europe, three hundred years prior to the founding of America.
D. The bible endorses no demonation, no Christian church existed yet. "Wherever two or more meet, I will be there" doesn't require any specific demonation.

Can't argue that. I'm little pissed at the direction right now.
