Now I am not saying that you agreed with Rome when you were at the service, but I cannot see how attending a service of a false religion can possibly help its adherents to forsake it. | I understand that you don't see how it can do anything. That is why I told you to stay away if your conscience bothers you about it. I did mention baptisms also. You make it sound like I only mentioned buildings. But the way you make it sound you need to stay away from buildings because they reek with idolatry in images of Christ and crucifixes. These things are objects and might contaminate you. Icons may do the same things.
You don't have to see it. I am not asking you to see it. I am telling you to steer clear if your conscience bothers you about it. I am also telling you I am not contaminated by it and I do have friends that are true friends that have been Catholic and are not now. You don't have to see it. | Fair enough, we will just have to agree to differ on this one (not to mention the fact that it is 4 am over here  ) |
Daniel:
Do you have any rc's in your family or friends? Have you ever had a choice to actually give an opinion on this thread? I am just asking here Daniel.
