When will Rome and the Eastern Orthodox churches reconcile?<br /><br />Medieval Rome allowed unbiblical doctine to infiltrate the church to justify raising an obscene amount of money.<br />The Roman Catholic church no longer squeezes its adherents of revenue in order to build luxurious palaces, er, I mean cathederals. The priests no longer live like greedy sultans while the 99% starve. Why not admit that doctrines such as indulgences and purgatory are money making scams that can now be discarded. No one will sue if the Roman Catholic Church admits Luther was right. What does it have to lose by reforming itself?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329600504016968888.post-21033512490770501162012-06-26T06:25:00.572-05:002012-06-26T06:25:00.572-05:00Once again I must remark: Who gives a "flying...Once again I must remark: Who gives a "flying fig" what the Roman Catholic Church says - EVER!?!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329600504016968888.post-51453909908159042702012-06-25T23:29:49.636-05:002012-06-25T23:29:49.636-05:00So it is a way for those who hold strong opinions ...<i>So it is a way for those who hold strong opinions to vent their passion on an issue while offering little real opportunity to shape those resolutions which the floor committees write and present to the delegates.</i><br /><br />Was it intentionally designed to be dysfunctional or what?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329600504016968888.post-49290340691733116562012-06-25T22:47:16.574-05:002012-06-25T22:47:16.574-05:00I have to agree with the Catholic bischof insofar ...I have to agree with the Catholic bischof insofar as he notes that the division is sinful. <br /><br />Had Rome not broken with the East 500 years earlier and had Rome adopted the Augsburg confession or worked to adopt a position compatible with it, that would really be something to celebrate. <br /><br />Rome's intractable and overbearing autocracy in error first divided it from all the other bishops in the East and eventually lead to the protest that thoroughly and sinfully fractured the church into millions of pieces in the West.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329600504016968888.post-39139343100198038142012-06-25T20:46:58.821-05:002012-06-25T20:46:58.821-05:00Luther came to reform, but the Roman Catholics rej...Luther came to reform, but the Roman Catholics rejected him. They still do. What else is there to say.<br /><br />Meanwhile, the Roman Catholic church has yet to admonish the thousands of daughter congregations in the third world that enjoy mixing animism and satanism with Catholicism.
