When Mary Ann Pakiz converted to Catholicism she was told to burn her King James Version Bible. She eventually entered the Order of St. Benedict. Despite her devotion, only years later did she become a true follower of Christ. Here is her fascinating story in her own words, explaining what she was taught in the Catholic Church, what was wrong with it, and why she came to the personal conviction that the only way she could truly follow Christ was to leave the Catholic church. She explains why she is now confident and at peace about her final destination, Heaven.
Of all the Christians groups I'm working with the Catholics gives me most resistance but they also the most devout of us all. So this is most likely the reason. Matter in fact the Catholics attack me more then the low ranked satanist who got no idea what they are doing.
But the Catholics now know at-least there is something wrong with their church and many priest/bishops/cardinals are in fact satanist. So this is a start at-least.
Speaking about Christians groups I find the Gnostic and the seventh day Adventist the most open minded.
I once worked in a bookstore. A lot of people came in wanting to purchase a Bible. I would always ask whether they were Catholic or Protestant to know which versions of the Bible to point them to. More often than not, it was the Catholics that needed the most help. I was stunned to discover that most of them didn't even know there were versions of the Bible especially for Catholics. They would ask me what the difference was, not realizing the Catholic Bibles contain additional books that Protestant Bibles do not.
There was a video posted over at Christianity.win not too long ago, it was an end times prophecy subject, the preachers name was Randy something, he used numbers and scripture to calculate coming events. It was a roundtable discussion type thing with a radio host. Among the other guests was a baptist preacher and a catholic. The catholic was totally clueless, every scripture quoted was a big surprise to him. Even the basic concepts of salvation eluded him. I'm too busy to find a link but it's worth a watch.
It's probably due to the fact that the Catholic priests interpret the Bible for their parishioners, rather than to allow the parishioners to read the Bible for themselves and interpret it. It's all about control.
This seems to be a rather malicious assertion, given that you think the parish Priests control the readings it shows me you aren't quite informed on what you are speaking about. Readings are on a 3-year cycle, which means if you were to attend Daily Mass every day for 3 years, you would have heard the entire Bible read aloud. I've never heard a Priest downplay the act of reading Scripture; there is even a partial indulgence for reading Scripture for 30 minutes daily. Cultural Catholics not being deeply devoted to their faith does not imply that the Church is stifling the reading of Scripture.
