The Principle of Contingent Causation: The Impossibility of Infinite Regress.

Lol, our Atheist Friends are Catechism Experts now, are they? You should know whoever wants to be saved must believe in Christ and be baptized. This is from Mark 16:16: "Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved. Whoever does not believe will be condemned" (Mark 16:16).

Bucky, you should read CCC 846 and 848, and try to understand what it says, not what you want it to say. Once you know of Christ and His Baptism, you are bound to be washed in that sacred fount for the washing away of sins, whether Original or Personal, Mortal or Venial. All sins are washed away in Holy Baptism. http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/p123a9p3.htm#846 Quoting 2 paras from it below in the quote box.

CCC 846: "Basing itself on Scripture and Tradition, the Council teaches that the Church, a pilgrim now on earth, is necessary for salvation: the one Christ is the mediator and the way of salvation; he is present to us in his body which is the Church. He himself explicitly asserted the necessity of faith and Baptism, and thereby affirmed at the same time the necessity of the Church which men enter through Baptism as through a door. Hence they could not be saved who, knowing that the Catholic Church was founded as necessary by God through Christ, would refuse either to enter it or to remain in it.336"

848 "Although in ways known to himself God can lead those who, through no fault of their own, are ignorant of the Gospel, to that faith without which it is impossible to please him, the Church still has the obligation and also the sacred right to evangelize all men."338
