List of things Catholic's are falsely accused

Post by Peetem »

Let's get the list started now in an attempt to stop anyone who might come here with the common misconceptions of these called "errors" of Catholicism. Maybe we can head off at the pass any nonsensical discussions.

I'll start:

1) Catholic's worship the Blessed Virgin Mary, equal with Jesus.

Not using a sufficient number of subclauses

I had a discussion with a 7th Day Adventist, who said Catholics would make it illegal to go to church on Saturday.

I told him the truth -- when we take over, the Quakers won't be allowed to quake, the Shakers won't be allowed to shake, and the 'Piscopalians are just gonna have to hold their water. :siggy

Putting Mary above God, as evidenced by the Rosary - ten Hail Mary's to one Our Father. I usually say that it shows the opposite.

Paganism and how we have "man-made traditions." The man-made traditions is funny to me, because traditions depend on people to pass on...

Perhaps!
Bishop Charles Grafton wrote: Mr. Moody accomplished a remarkable work. Every one was impressed with his straightforwardness and sincerity. There was nothing of the manufactured pasteboard rhetoric which is the stock in trade of many popular preachers. His aim was to point men to Christ. I asked my people from my pulpit to pray for him. We may believe he belonged, as St. Augustine said, to the soul of the Catholic Church, though he might not have been in communion with its visible body.
