<quoted text> Peter was never a pope, he wasn't even in Rome. You misinterpret Matthew 16;18, The way the Catholic Church interprets them we see that the entire superstructure of the Catholic Church is based on error. Jesus did not build His church upon Peter, He built it upon the confession Peter made in Matthew 16:16. Purgatory, what's up with that? Infant baptism, not even mentioned in the bible, what terrible sins does an infant need forgiveness for. Praying to dead saints, what for, they can't hear you. The Catholic church is one big lie..

Of all the preachers on earth whose attitudes bugged me, Jerry Falwell had to take the prize as being the most obnoxious to my sensitivities.
At approximately four hundred pounds of weight, and having all the comforts of life ... he dared to preach of SIN when people were and ARE starving for those same comforts.
It has always put my teeth on edge to hear preachers going on about the SIN of prostitution, when for some women in poverty-stricken countries, it was the ONLY way they could feed their families.
Sickening blather!!!

You may be partially correct.
I have been born into a "paradigm"of sorts. A "model" or "template". One consisting of a physical biological vessel that is totally dependent upon it's environment for even a minimum level of subsistence.--No physical environment=no physical existence for the individual part. This is not true in the reverse...your environment does NOT require you to exist. It will readjust itself to a self sustaining performance level perpetually. It is the most efficient vehicle of energy/matter/antimatter conveyance and appropriation(reappropriation) that can ever exist. It exists universally as well as local, and doesn't even have the slightest care about you, as it utilizes you(your energy) in any efficient manner necessary.
That all inclusive perspective of everything that exists I call the ALL....which is self explanatory and simplified for purposes of human communication of that very perspective.
As individuals, we had better realize that "WE" have to "respect" that environment and learn to utilize and coexist within it, or our longevity will suffer(individually and wholly), and we will simply be assimilated and reappropriated within it. THAT requires acquiring knowledge of how it works, and cooperative action to produce the most productive situation for a quality life sustaining atmosphere for humans within that environment.
What I have seen is certainly NOT even close to what can be accomplished...and it needs to begin with the individual...education being a major factor. History shows that every time education(knowledge) is suppressed, society plummets, and apathy, ignorance, atrocity and barbarism abounds.
The very mentality that you exhibit in thinking everyone is in some cult, and the fact that you feel animosity toward anyone who may be more educated in certain areas than yourself(and tries to share it) is a perfect example of the effects of the brainwashing and suppression of educatioemise of hate, division, and emotion rather than love, cooperation, and reason.
Thank you for providing an excellent platform for me to express the actuality of a major worldwide problem which has plagued society for ages.
Perhaps there will be some individuals who will read and recognize what I am trying to convey, and contribute, correct, or add their influence.n and knowledge I point out throughout history. It is not just you. It is evident worldwide. You simply provide a shining example of how folks have been reduced to operating on the premise of hate, division, and emotion rather than love, cooperation, and reason.

Soon, Confucianism and NOT mythical deities will rule the world.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confucianism
Christianity is in decline. In America, over 20% of Science award winning children are of East Asian heritage (heavily influenced by Confucianism). Yet they make up only 2% of America's population.
Within two decades, China will surpass the USA as the world's largest economic power. China along with Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Singapore will shift world power and influence back to East Asia, just as is was 3000 to 5000 years ago,
Clearly, Confucian values and not mythical deities will dominate the next march of civilization. The trend is well underway.
Education and NOT religious studies are the key to America's future and our ability to stand shoulder to shoulder with East Asia. It clearly is not happening, especially in the most religious regions of the country.

<quoted text>Of course you are unaware of China's big secret,what the Communists do not want you to know about.The Millions of Chinese Christians who by no means are in the decline,but are harrassed,oppressed and persecuted by the government to destroy the Christian faith.Both Catholics and Protestants in China are on the increase,enduring much affliction to keep their faith in the so-called(imaginery God,you call a delusion.)It is not a delusion that those Chinese will walk to their death for that delusion.Such things are going on in China,and the Communists with all of their atheistic savvy have not been able to destroy the Christian faith.However the Chinese also have a revival of Buddhism in China,that has been allowed to counter the spiritual revolution with Christians. The Chinese government also has a strong and serious problem with the Islamic presence in some of their provinces. Christians have been through the worst forms of persecution by the Chinese Communists,and still the church continues to grow.Russian Christians have a testimony of how they survived 75 years of atheistic communism as well.So if you boast as to how Americans are wanning in their christian beliefs,the real truth is that many Christians are becoming stronger,and the organizations of Christian faith although maybe downsizing as it were from small communities,are growing into large mega churches.The RCCh is seeing record increases in attendance,and especially those who want to go deeper in faith,seeking to become more loyal to the Christ they all believe in.

Peace
If you try to link me to your assumptions, you may be disappointed in your conclusion.
Again, all you claim is "a posteriori", and really a shot in the dark.
If you were a believer, you would have sold ALL you have for the pearl of great price, then you may not judge by what you see, and your assumptions would be different.
Consider selling all for the pearl....
Am I clear...?(smiles)
