Scofizzle Posted May 21, 2005 Posted May 21, 2005 [quote name='superman2000' date='Oct 15 2004, 01:48 PM'] When we look in the Bible we find that prayer is directed to God alone. Asking a saint to help and guide or protect is something only God can do. As someone once put it, why go to the branch office when you can go to the president. There is not one example of a Christian addressing prayers to Mary or saints. Mary ROCKS, However, she is not the key. Jesus is the key, knock and it shall be opened unto you [/quote] Incoorect the only thing we ever ask fro saints or angels for is to pray for us.... that is what the Chruch teaches us that the saints and angels can do for us.....now we humans in our ineptness to speak to God or the Saints say silly things in prayer that make it seem like we pray to the Saint sbut we don't... why am I answering this in this thread? Oh well couldnt et this pass...
Ash Wednesday Posted May 22, 2005 Posted May 22, 2005 Big fat A here. The pope is the man and Ratzinger ROCKS.
Didacus Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 The pope is failable, but remains the highest authority on earth within the Roman Catholic Religion. His teachings should be respected at all times with regards to the fact that Jesus forever remains the true head of the Church.
