Rather than answering your nonsense (like completely missing my point about picking and choosing focus doctrine, re: divorce v. gayness), I'll just let the Catholics here tear you up on that one.
Actually, no. I clearly state Catholics have just as much access to God as do the rest of Christianity. what I am pointing out is the only one bright and shinning light in an otherwise Godless world, is unfounded. Why? Because no one will ever be admitted into Heaven because they were born under or in the right 'church tradition.' It is an assureance that most Catholics rely too heavily on, because of this supposed trail of command leading back to Peter. When in fact all the apstoles had their own Churches/denominational teachings. Again that is why their was such a large divide among first century followers, and why Peter and Paul for a time were at odds.
Again If Peter Had supreme authority over the church then why are we NOT mandated to first be converted to Judaism then Christianity, or segerated into Judiazier/Gentile Christian groups? This was the norm in Peter's churches, but Paul taught against this teaching, which lead to division even among believers then. Ultimatly the church adopted Paul's teaching over that of Peter. So again if Peter had supreme authority as the catholics suggest then why could he not convince the Church of HIS OWN DAY to follow him without question as the catholics follow the pope?
Again the point being that all men are falliable including the Great Peter and Paul, and every 'pope' or other religious leader since the church was first established. Which is why we must make a great divide between the religions of man, and the prescribed worship of God. If the religions of man is not directly supported by the bible then that religion no matter how old or 'traditional' is not following the prescribed worship God Himself places in the bible. Therefore that action/worship can not be considered Offical Christian Worship. Does all worship need be 'official' or it is considered a sin? No, absolutely not. Just so long as it does not violate any of the established sin/laws.
So in other words; you have custody over God but religion is allowed to take him out for ice-cream on weekends.
