Catholic Fundamentalism

Catholic Fundamentalism began by suggesting that we live in The Creation Program.  It was written and downloaded by The Loving Programmer.  He compiled something like 3-D pixels into systems and beings. Then, Catholic Fundamentalism realized that the The Creation Program is “The Big Movie”.  The stage reaches as far as the most powerful telescope can […]

Every collection meets The Appraiser.

We are collectors with dreams.   We dream of finding things of great value at low cost.   Our collections end up on display.  Whether in a safe, closet, china cupboard, hanging on walls, over a mantle,  or in a great gallery, every item in our collection reflects the cry of our soul:  “Look at my collection!”  […]

Catholics have the best chance of Heaven.

Christians play the odds.  Christians know that Jesus Fulfilled The Prophecies.  Billions bet:  “If I believe in Jesus, I will go to Heaven.”  Salvation is not that simple.  Only the obedient are saved.   How do we know?  Jesus said so:  “You are My friends if you obey My commands.”  Catholics obey.  Therefore, Catholics have the […]

Catholics have help in Heaven.

Catholics have help in Heaven.   John 17: 4-9 includes  “Jesus raised his eyes to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come.  Give glory to your son, so that your son may glorify you, just as you gave him authority over all people, so that your son may give eternal life to all you […]

Catholics tell atheists about The Big Movie.

When atheists insist, “There is no proof that God exists.”  Catholics agree with them!  Instead of arguing, Catholics tell atheists about The Big Movie. “You are right, there is no proof!  God is so Smart and Powerful that He wrote and downloaded The Big Movie!   It’s programmed with something like 3-D pixels.  Each of us […]

To the vain, The Church is a scary place.

  To the vain, The Church is a scary place.  They are afraid to enter.  “If I accept the teachings of The Catholic Church, I lose what I am.  My own thoughts, beliefs, and desires become useless.  They are me!  I love me!  I can’t bear to lose myself!” Some realize:  “Jesus was clear.  ‘Verily, […]

A hidden reason to be Catholic!

A hidden reason to be Catholic!  We already know that Jesus Founded One Church by decreeing:  “Verily, verily I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”  He ordained […]

“Protestantism lets me be happy as I am.”

  In conversations with Protestants, one feeling emerges:  “Protestantism lets me be happy as I am.”  We may explain to Protestants that “Jesus Founded One Church.  Isn’t it best to be in it?”  Then, we get the first hint that many find happiness only where they are.  “Protestantism lets me be happy as I am.” […]

Is Heaven “The Vatican in the Sky”?

Dante’s Inferno teaches that punishment reflects the seriousness of each soul’s sins on earth.    The rich, selfish man’s suffering  in Luke 16: 19-31 was clear.  He knew that he was suffering because he was made to see, across the “great gulf”, God and the saved souls living in perfect joy.   The greatest punishment of all […]

Protestantism’s greatest fear

Some fears are real, others imaginary. Protestantism’s greatest fear comes from Mt 10:24-33, “Jesus said to his Apostles: . . . Everyone who acknowledges me before others I will acknowledge before my heavenly Father. But whoever denies me before others, I will deny before my heavenly Father.” Simpler Protestants are not worried. “I believe in […]
