you catholics crack me up. Paintings of a Hebrew looking like a European. Typical of your warped mindset coming from the greek. You will probably be looking for a Messiah with long straight hair, van dyke beard and blue eyes.....good luck with that. These men were Hebrews and Jewish, they didn't look anything like the portrayals of that pagan church. Look at your pope....he wears the hat gleaned from dagon the fish god....pagan to the core as is much of what you people believe and teach. And you celebrate Ishtar (easter) another pagan festival. But I"m not your judge, that will come later from the ONLY judge who can make your fate known....the ONE and ONLY Elohim

I'm trying to figure out your mindset and I haven't yet. Can you elaborate on what you mean here?

Well, my first thought is, "Great, some more rotten flesh for people to worship."

My first thought as I read the article was, "Paul was not a Roman Catholic."

If he were here today to see and hear all this, he would be horrified.

As recorded in the book of Acts, anytime someone tried to worship one of the Apostles, they were quickly told not to.

I swear I'm innocent of crime. It's all juj's fault

Brigade noun

1. Group of people afflicted with apoplectic fits of schizo-frenzy at the very utterance of the God word, anything Biblical and un-darwin. To them, this is called logic. It's an age old mental condition, can only be cured by colossal doctors. It tends to deteriorate with age when the idle mind is the devil's workshop.
2. Group of people who enter St. Vitus dance at the very utterance of the word Catholic, but tend to pipe down or even reconcile with the G word, as long as it does not conflict with other G words of other faiths.
3. Group of people who very much enter into the same St. Vitus dance, but at least stand by the Catholics in the monopoly of the G word, but still believe Babylon exists on the world map, and harlots don't wear revealing or voluptuous outfits, but long cassocks, funny hats and are iconoholics.
4. Group of distinct people who never figure in any of the above and are still waiting for a definition in this dictionary.
