I doubt that, but as a catholic...why would it matter? Revelation is trumped by church dogma, end of story.
Quote:I believe the Church's teachings on faith and morals come from God, and those are the things we have a firm belief in. Those are the things about God that we believe have been revealed to us. The rest are unknown, and among those unknowns are some of the questions I always see here, such as "why doesn't God just personally tell us He's real" ...or something along those lines. With questions like that, all we can do is speculate and come up with theories. But at the end of the day, they are still unknown because they have not been revealed to us.The churches teachings come from the church, not god...the church who reserves the right to decree -for- god...in god's silence or absence. GL with that.
