xThe Sky Lightsx Catholics are just a different branch of Christianity. Like Protestant, Lutheran, and such. They all believe in Jesus, God, and the Holy Spirit except when it comes to praying the Catholics pray to Mary instead of directly to Christ himself. I treat God and Christ as if they were one when I pray and I pray directly to the Lord himself. Um, this is an open forum right? I would just like some questions to be answered if that's alright... Isn't it wrong to pray to someone else rather than directly at God? I mean prayer is a form of worship right? and In Exodus 20 God said there that 3 "You shall have no other gods before me. 4 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5a You shall not bow down to them or worship them..." Why do Catholics pray to statues of a Mother Mary and a Baby Jesus? and Why do people still think that Catholicism and Christianity are the same? Though they have some similarities in names and teachings (which I really doubt) that doesn't mean they're the same and considered somewhat related, right? I'm not judging the Catholics. even my grandmother's a Catholic. I just hope there will be enlightenment in the near future before Jesus Christ comes back.
hope you could answer my questions... Come to think of it, it's so sad to think that Jesus Christ was killed by religious people. (Pharisees, Saducees, teachers of the law...) I'm just saying... Peace be with you all... ninja

Quote: Isn't it wrong to pray to someone else rather than directly at God? Yes Quote: Why do Catholics pray to statues of a Mother Mary and a Baby Jesus? I'm not sure where you're getting your information from but they don't pray to Statues of Mary or to a Baby Jesus. They believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God and that he is holy... they just happen to also believe that Mary had to have been holy in order to have something that is holy... which if you look at biblical text it says "Blessed are you among women" in one verse and other verse talks about how special she is. God chose her for a reason....even still you are right they should not be praying to her, but they do anyway Quote: Why do people still think that Catholicism and Christianity are the same? Because they are.....why do people think that protestants and Christianity is the same??... cause they are. Quote: Though they have some similarities in names and teachings (which I really doubt) that doesn't mean they're the same and considered somewhat related, right? Similarities... that's a major understatement... If it wasn't for Catholic church there would be no protestant church... which means there would be no lutherans, methodists, baptists, anglicans, etc etc etc... The protestant church was formed in an effort to protest the catholic churches way of doing things... hence protestant... Quote: I'm not judging the Catholics. even my grandmother's a Catholic. I just hope there will be enlightenment in the near future before Jesus Christ comes back. It kinda sounds like you are...

I live in a place that is majority catholic and most of the catholics I talked with won't really talk about Jesus they most of the time want nothing to do with him except to show self sacrifice on a pilgrimage other than that it's mostly about Mary. my mom used to be catholic until she got saved and surrendered to the lord . she did not get saved by the catholic church. well anyhoo we were looking at her moms old bible were I noticed a thing in front called the indulgences. It took a while before we found out what they were. they don't believe that Jesus saves you that it is just works. they also believe in purgatory which is where the indulgences come in. they are so you can pray someone else into heaven. i.e. God doesn't get you out you got to hope you have plenty of friends.
1. get 5 indulgences for doing the rosary an extra 5 or more extra times 2.kiss your bible this I think gets you 10 (the rest I just remember how you get them more than how much you get it even says how much it takes to get someone out) 3.read 1 word out of the bible 4. read 1 verse. 5.do the rosary 50 times
there is no purgatory in the bible it was started because people believed the fictitious work of a poet Dante. not only that there is only one way into heaven and that's Jesus so why teach lies
oh here's what the rosary is it's a necklace that says how your supposed to pray and how many times 50 rosaries would be going around the necklace 50 times and the majority of the prayer is pointed to Mary asking her to tell God to forgive them John 14:6 says Jesus saith unto him ,I am the way the truth and the life: no one comes to the Father but by me.
