I am perplexed at how at one time when the RCC practiced something, christians ran from it.... now, they run to it.
Since WHEN has the RCC did anything considered holy & upright?
Let's not forget they teach Universalism, when Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man comes to the Father but by Me".
Wherever there is good, evil will try to corrupt it but it is unjust to judge any group solely by its worst representatives; we must look for the good as well.

Yes, it's disconcerting. Catholicism's ecumenical assault is bearing fruit.

Saint Ignatius of Loyola himself never persecuted Christians. His order the Jesuits was sent along with the Catholic Church to places like South America to you’re referring. They were missionaries, not persecutors. the catholic tribunal were the one that with and civil authorities—not by the Jesuits. His order still has some of the greatest reach within the Catholic Church today. Every year, many Jesuit missionaries give their lives in places others would never dare to go. all in search of the lost sheep of our Lord.
Also led the jesuits in infiltrating protestant churches, Oxford and protestant bible colleges. At the same time Tichendorf " discovered" sinaticus while some bishop "found" vaticanas B and Darwin was publishing his Origen of the Species. Now hows that for a quadruple coincidence?

Before the fall of modern Catholic Church. it’s simply not true to say that the Catholic Church never did anything good. For centuries, they have fed the poor, sent missionaries around the world, and preserved the biblical texts we all rely on today.

I think there are two types of RCs. Many American RCs including friends of mine accept me and other Protestants as fellow Christians, but I have heard others talk as though the RC church is the only true church and thus the way to be forgiven of sins--not sure which group the Pope is in despite Vatican II accepting Protestants.

Murdered Waldenses and any other human who dared read scripture and deny the holiness of the pope. Again, its documented. Look it up.

What good is it to send missionaries around the world when they teach a false gospel based on works?

How much faith does it take to stop committing sin?
And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. Matthew 17:20 so less then a mustard seed

I know what Jesus said, I didn't ask Him I asked you.
Do you have more faith than a mustard seed?

@Daisy2 we dont agree on much theology but I think we can agree that haidabo is just here to troll to up his post count.
Actually I am here to call your attention to you lack of love and obedience to Jesus.
I mean after all you say He gave His life for you.

Does He not deserve better from all of you?
