Where did you see anything in my post about praising God's mom? I said," Oh my preciousGod \ thank God,thank God, thank God." typical of you satanic accusers to twist a Catholics praise of the one and only God into praising a woman in heaven.Ur business should be on recognizing Jack Chick's books are not at all from the bible, and the only people that seek out jack chick are spiritually ill. BTW you have a sock /troll account that hides all your activities...a sign you work in the dark

For your information I am baptized. It is not your call to demand that christians, of other denominations stop worshipping God and thanking the living souls in heaven for their prayers and pleadings before the throne of God the Almighty. Turn away from the worship of demon accusers oat chick publications lest Jesus judge you one day to be guilty of bearing false witness of your neighbor. See>>> Matt 5:11 and Lk 21:12. And do not harass me please.

He is an incredibly influential person whose position dates back to ancient Rome, he is the leader of a sovereign city state, his organization spends hundreds of billions of dollars a year and a vast percentage of that goes to charity, and he is an international symbol of peace. I really don't know why.

l thought that silly Americans had come to the conclusion that President Obama was the Anti-Christ?

[HelloImTheDoctor1]

I don't believe in such things. The pope... Useless, why do you guys need him?

[Baltaar1980]

Because he is the Anti-Christ !

Repent and be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins - Acts 2:38 The Bible.

Linda, turn away from the idolatry ( praying to statues of 'Mary' , 'Saints' ), and the heretic teachings of Catholism. Turn to the true Gospel of Christ, the Gospel of Grace. Go to an American web site called - CHICK PUBLICATIONS and click on 'Catholism'
