I happen to be Protestant, but not in all the ways you describe. I have a deep respect for both the Catholic and Orthodox traditions, and just wanted to chime in and humbly ask that you not be so quick to paint all protestants with the same dismissive brush. There are a good many of us who would be just as horrified by the nonsense described at your conference as you are. Describing everything wrong in the Catholic church as "protestant" stings quite a bit, especially to those of who are appalled by those same things. Thanks for your writings, and keep it up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086833995941525990.post-55981158441916024922007-11-25T20:51:00.000-05:002007-11-25T20:51:00.000-05:00Let me respond to your comments one at a time:i ha...Let me respond to your comments one at a time:<BR/><BR/><I>i happened to have a wonderful time there.</I><BR/><BR/>Well, I'm delighted that you had a wonderful time. Unfortunately, that has nothing to do with the theological soundness of the event.<BR/><BR/><I>i thnk it was just what some catholic teens needed. to get away from tradition and praise God through diverse song and worship.</I><BR/><BR/>That is precisely the problem with today's Church; they think they need to get away from our Tradition, when in reality, our Tradition holds infinitely more than any novel methods of praise and worship that are modeled on Protestantism.<BR/><BR/><I>God does not focuz [sic]on denomination and while yes, i am very proud to be catholic...CHRISTIANITY is the religion, dont compromise it with denomination. </I><BR/><BR/>First of all, the Catholic Church is not a denomination. Denomination is a word we use for splinter groups that break off of the Church. The Catholic Church is the one and only true Church of Christ in which the fullness of truth subsists. That is Church doctrine. If you don't like it, you are not holding to what the Church believes.<BR/><BR/>Secondly, Christianity IS Catholicism, plain and simple. If you don't believe it, check out the Cong. for the Doctrine of Faith's declaration this summer on Lumen Gentium that said that other Christian communities could not even really be called churches at all. We are the <B>one true Church</B> lady (or sir), and that is Church teaching. You may not like it or you may not agree with it, but you must understand that it is not me you are disagreeing with, but 2,000years of Catholic teaching.Bonifacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10672810254075072214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086833995941525990.post-51925504412835427282007-11-25T19:10:00.000-05:002007-11-25T19:10:00.000-05:00i happened to have a wonderful time there. and i t...i happened to have a wonderful time there. and i thnk it was just what some catholic teens needed. to get away from tradition and praise God through diverse song and worship. it saddens me to hear your immature remarks at the end of this particular blog. i beleive everyone did a great job there and my kids have come back with so many memories, new friends, and the word of God to spread to others. i hope that maybe next time you can be more open minded,or maybe just not even go.
