[right][snapback]811621[/snapback][/right] [/quote] that's what I was thinking Rev, I was brought up in a lukewarm "Catholic" family and then "became a Christian" in college and started doing InterVarsity and going to Protestant Churches. You could say I also came in to the Catholic Church, came to faith in the Protestant Church and then reverted back to the Catholic church. But I made a decision. I decided to be Catholic. To be Catholic is to willfully submit to the teachings of the Catholic Church and to subject yourself to the authority of the Magisterium. You're either submitting to all that the Magisterium teaches to be true, or you're a "cafeteria" Catholic who's not really Catholic at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[right][snapback]811629[/snapback][/right] [/quote] i read ur post in the convert thread and it didn't answer my question. the word "hybrid" implies that one can be both catholic and protestant. how is this possible? is that what you mean to imply by the word?

N/A Gone Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 photo..not to be mean, but I know what it means to be catholic. You have a tendency to talk down on me. I wonder why. my faith as a protestant was great, so was my theology, I just feel I have come to a better understanding within the rc. That doesnt mean I throw out my faith as a protestant, the dna of what it was that brought me to faith. no more preaching on this subject.. Im a hybrid and I hope to never lose that part of my faith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phatcatholic Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 (edited) more questions: do you believe that the Catholic Church possesses the fullness of Truth? are there any Catholic teachings that you do not believe in? if so, what are they?

I was simply stating that you can't be Catholic and non-Catholic at the same time. if there are elements of a person's beliefs that go against what the Church teaches, that person cannot really call themselves Catholic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
