I suggested those two as they are Christian Apologetics meaning they seek a rational basis for the existence of God. At any rate, worth a listen sometime.

The true spiritual communion exists only with the believer and the Triune God - it is a purely personal matter and action as a part of one's faith. I cannot find one Biblical statement that designates or authorizes another human being - no matter how highly elevated or titled by a "religious" organization - to intervene or interfere with the communion between a believer and God. In the case of such denial for Biden, it is a non-issue in the reality of such communion. And, who cares? And there is a key doctrinal difference. In Catholic doctrine there is nothing spiritual about it. The Eucharist is the true body, blood, soul and divinity of Jesus Christ. (As in "This is my body" not "This is a token of my body") To be physically one with Him yet reject Him by mortal sin is contradictory and irrational and an abomination. Sound like a bunch of nonsense.

I'm Catholic (well, my parents made me one) and i DO take a very dim view of that religion, ESPECIALLY since it went full commie in the 60s. Then again, I take a dim view of pretty much all religions, especially those who quote the bible as if it were some kind of 100% truth document...
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

Jorge I agree the Church has some bad actors including the current Pontif but I have always believed the Church is the believers regardless of who is at the helm.

The Church has to let Aholes in because that's kind of the point. But why are they always in charge?

You cant deal with guns and be a Christian.
The west needs their womens intermingling with viril moslem men.
Moslems can go to heaven because they have the faith of Abraham (though not said in such few or easy to interpret words).
The US shouldnt build walls. Those are apparently reserved for Jerusalem and Vatican.
Those are my sticking points.

When you were pouring the water so the Priest could wash his hands......you were supposed to stop pouring when he wiggled his thumbs.
No....he couldn't simply withdraw his hands. You had to watch for the thumb wiggle.
Talk about indoctrination.....I never could even figure out the thumb wiggle!
It would look like two small birds splashing in a bird bath! Them thumbs was really a moving! We just did it, always worked out fine.  For those who don't know it's part of a prayer for purification before consecration that begins, "Lord wash away my iniquity...". Think it comes from Psalm 51.

I'm more independent minded I guess. There isn't a soul walking this earth more "holy" than me, That's an opinion that isn't based on any evidence. For instance, I would wager that people who die and have incorrupt bodies were holier than you or me. For instance, this lady: [ Linked Image] http://parousians.blogspot.com/2008/01/dont-know-much-about-incorruptibles.html

Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you...? - 1 Corinthians 3:16 That’s pretty flippin’ holy...! And it applies to all Jesus followers.

And if you are Catholic and take communion He is with you physically as well as spiritually. With you every way possible. How beautiful is that!
