Jesus saves Bibliophile, NOT doctrine. Don't they teach you that at the Roman Catholic church? Or is RCC doctrines a neccessary part of your works based salvation?
Tell me is JPII going to be entitled "Saint Antichrist" - Here is the reason I ask =
"Did John Paul II have an absolute respect for Scripture? No, it was the exact opposite. In his role as Pope, he published the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the first universal catechism of the Catholic Church in several centuries. In it he decreed the following, “As a result the [Catholic] Church, to whom the transmission and interpretation of Revelation is entrusted, ‘does not derive her certainty about all revealed truths from the holy Scriptures alone. Both Scripture and Tradition must be accepted and honored with equal sentiments of devotion and reverence.’” This teaching of John Paul II equates Scripture with tradition. Christ Jesus continually rebuked the Pharisees because they likewise placed their tradition on a par with Scripture." (R.Bennett)
Biblio, I can see where you get your disatisfaction with the Word of God.
