May I ask who you think the whore of Babylon is? Is the Great Whore
folklore?

I was raised Catholic.  I have an aunt who is a nun.  I attended
catechism and taught it for a while. I have read some more Roman Catholic
theology just this summer.

 I would suggest you start with the documents of

Bro. Starcher, the devil also portrays himself as an angel of light. 
Having known many Catholic people, I know the doctrines of the Catholic
church do not save.  They talk pretty good, like many do.  I am not
saying this to say the Catholic people are not good people.  I have many
Catholic relatives that I love, but the religion that they practice is in
darkness.

I have taken time to study many different faiths so I may be better able
to witness to people. I will continue to do so.  I use their doctrine to
try to show them their error so they can be saved.  You suggest that I am
not familiar with the Catholic religion and I tell you I am very familiar
with it.

>Lets focus the discussion of the Catholic faith on the documents of
>Vatican II.  I look forward to discussing these documents with you.

Are these documents on the net?  If so, send me the address and I will
look into it.
