Question for Christians about Catholics
-

Scripture is pretty clear.
Sure, that's why there are never any disagreements about it's intent take the current example of how the Protestants and Catholics agree on everything

The disagreements in intent are a result of dogma.
The difference between Protestant and Catholics are usually arguments regarding the dogma since there isn't much to argue about regarding Scripture.
There's nothing confusing about Christian Doctrine.
You can try to test me again if you like.
Of course, it's kinda hijacking the point of the topic.
If this is Locke, then who's in there? -

To watch you fail again? I merely call you out for the enjoyment of others.

Does that mean that the concept of the Trinity falls under dogma? -

Defintely.
Even if one were to think that the trinity is addressed in Scriptures, there's no mandate for it.
For example, I think the notion of a trinity is silly, but if I'm wrong there is no repercussions for it. Scripture does not require me to believe anything other than Jesus being the son and God being the father.
That's what I practice. However, most religions put a far stronger emphasis on it than Doctrine does.

what denomination you belong to?
I looked for the church that matched the Bible basics.
And having looked, which church do you conclude matched the Bible basics? (It's really not right to keep cham in suspense like this.) -

I'm never giving you the name of my church. I'm not crazy.
Cham merely asked for the
denomination
, that's all. And, obviously, it's no secret to some of us on this board. But you still love to play coy (to put it politely) with the others on this board. -

Catholics are the original Christians and the two terms are inseparable.
Protestant denoms are autonomous in their accountability, so many Pastors preach what they want. Usually a learned behaviour passed down.

Anyone who believes that Jesus Christ is the Lord and Savior, has repented of their sins, and has put their trust and faith in him is a Christian. No matter what denomination they go by.
That being said, there are many things that the Catholic Church teaches that are just downright blasphemous.

Yes, regardless of the number of times they have been clarified for you. Sadly this is the result of one being taught what to think, rather than how to think.

That's a bunch of BS. It's never been clarified. It's been defended by Catholics because that's the only thing that they've ever been taught and they will defend the church over anything else. The only thing that's been clarified is that Catholics are pretty much brainwashed into believing whatever the church tells them
