Pope Declares Catholicism The One True Christian Religion - TalkLeft: The Politics Of Crime

Pope Declares Catholicism The One True Christian Religion - TalkLeft: The Politics Of Crime:

"The Vatican set itself on a collision course with other Christian faiths
Tuesday, reaffirming the primacy of the Roman Catholic Church in a corrective
document which it said was designed to clear up recent 'erroneous' doctrine. The
document's central claim, that only the Catholic Church is 'the one true Church
of Christ', is likely to revive a debate which has dogged the Vatican's
relationship with rival Christian denominations for decades."


At a time when the world is facing the risks from extremists of all brands, the last thing that we need is division to be promoted inside the Christian faith. It is sad to see the Pope make this statement, beliefs like this have caused an unknown amount of blood shed through history. It is beliefs like this that set Sunni and Shia at each others throats in Iraq. What the world needs is tolerance, from all religions.
