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.
As soon as we start worshiping anybody but God, I'll leave the Catholic Church. You have my word.

If you refuse to call worship "worship", how will you ever be convinced?




How do they know the bone fragments are from him and not some other guy that died in the 1st century?

Your ignorance never ceases to amaze me. Do just try and be more ignorant about the Catholic faith every time you speak? Really. If you think that we worship the saints, then by your definition I worship my mom, my father, my brothers and sisters, my friends in Christ. You need to wake up and learn the truth of what we believe rather than spout of bold face lies. It was rather tiring.

Paul would also be upset to see what has become of his teachings...........how some worship him as head of the Orthodox church. He would be appalled that they started their own church and do not believe as Paul taught them.

Which certainly ain't the Catholic Church with its 200+ denominations

What is the origin of the Catholic Church?
What was the first / original church? Is the original / first church the true church?
