My problem is the Liturgy (which is called the Anglican Use) It apparently is a "Catholicized" version of Cranmer's whatever. Is this true? Why not have them come back in the way they left using the old Roman Rite (OK in English if they prefer) I have heard so many conflicting stories about what the Anglican service is , Is it Novus Ordo , what i said above or is it already the Old Roman Rite in English. I can see problems already forming onthe liturgy alone. I am pleased that more are entering the Ark of Peter which of course is the most important thing for the saving of their souls.

It is this: "They changed the ten commandments which is the Law of God." No, Amy, we didn't. They are the same in our Bible as in most Bibles, with allowance made for different wording in the translations. <em>Do you mean the numbering?</em> There are actually 14 "commandments" -- as in commands or proscriptions (<em>do</em>s or "<em>don't</em>s") -- in the Decalogue. How they are gathered together depends on whether you are a Jew, a Latin Catholic, and Eastern Christian, or a Protestant. (Like the chapters and verses in your Bible, the ten commandments did not come from God with numbers.) Okay, I'll address another point. "Some say the papacy is the antichrist." Well, concerning Jesus, "<em>Some </em>[said He was] John the Baptist, and other <em>some </em>Elias, and others Jeremias, or one of the prophets" (Mt. 16:14). Again, some said He was a Samaritan and had a devil. Others called him a deceiver, etc., etc. Can you show us that "the papacy" -- a two-millennial institution, not a person -- is "the antichrist," using scripture alone? If not, then what "some say" is of little consequence. Dear Amy,

No, Amy, we didn’t. They are the same in our Bible as in most Bibles, with allowance made for different wording in the translations. Do you mean the numbering? There are actually 14 “commandments” — as in commands or proscriptions (dos or “don’ts”) — in the Decalogue. How they are gathered together depends on whether you are a Jew, a Latin Catholic, and Eastern Christian, or a Protestant. (Like the chapters and verses in your Bible, the ten commandments did not come from God with numbers.)

Can you show us that “the papacy” — a two-millennial institution, not a person — is “the antichrist,” using scripture alone? If not, then what “some say” is of little consequence.

I used to be Catholic but then I stopped practicing after I found out some disturbing truth. Some say the papacy is the antichrist. They changed the ten commandments which is the Law of God, the Pope claims to be a god, they have killed innocent people for centuries like the Spanish Inquisition and supporting the Nazis, and the priests have molested a lot of children. Jesus would not approve of any of these, it is not Christian, that is evil hiding behind religion. I pray people really to open their eyes. I know I did!!!
