  As many of you are already aware, the Pope will be visiting the United States in April. He will be visiting Washington D.C. and New York City.

Practical observation about Sola Scriptura

Posted in Apologetics, Bible, tagged , , , on March 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment »

Today at work, a situation occurred that is a good example of why Sola Scriptura is problamatic as a doctrine. As a Catholic, I do not believe in the heresy of Sola Scriptura. Sola Scriptura, for those who don’t already know, means Bible Alone. For the past several years my employer has been working on a new computer system that will replace an [...]

While at work today, a coworker asked me if I had seen Lewis Black’s show on Comedy Central last night. I had never heard of Lewis Black. He indicated to me that it was a Catholic Church versus Oprah show. My coworker thought it was hilarious. Of course he thinks everything negative about the Catholic Church is hilarious and does [...]
