Why I am not a roman catholic - even tho I was raised one . . . I studied Church History and the bible.
Transubstantiation and the doctrine of the "accidents," apostolic succession. appostolic fathers (polycarp, ignatius of antioch, Missing the 3rd) these guys were all children when the real apostles were martyrs and the bible wasn't written but much catholic doctrince based on these "fathers" the first 200 years of Christendom, the roman emperors killed off all the leadership in major persecutions. Then the emperor made Christianity the official religion of rome and merged it with all the pagan religions of rome. Catholic means universal <-- How many pagan holidays are included in Catholicism? indulgences, northern Crusades, Pontiff direct lineage to Nimrod (tons more)
Revelations "come out of her my people so you don't share in her sins"
not a subject to be taken lightly and certainly not a decision to be made without much thought and prayer
