The true church (Eph.5:27; Acts 20:28) still exists today! Only a few (Matt.7:14; Eph.4:14)people are in the one flock today. Yes, many have wandered away from the truth(Acts 20:29-30; Col.2:8) and established their own righteousness(Rom.10:3). The few(Matt.22:14) that God called out (2Tim.1:9)of 2nd Babylon(confusion) are in (Eph.4:4; 1Cor.1:25-29))God's Church today. The gospel is being preached today, but only few will accept it!\nLook what Matt.7:21-24 says!\n\nThe true church isn't the Catholic Church. It doesn't preach or teach the true gospel of Rev.14:7-12. Mostly it is called the Beast or Anti-Christ in Revelation. The protestants came out of her, but still follow her(Rev.17:5). \nClues: "sits on 7 hills"= Rev.17:9;  "claims to be God"=Dan.7:8; Rev.13:1; 17:3; 2Thess.2:4; \n"has thought to change law of God"=Dan.7:25(General Catholic Catechism) and "cast all truth to the ground"=Dan.8:12.\n\nIn Encyclopedia--I looked up the Catholic Church or Roman Catholic Church or Sunday---I forgot. But anyway; it tells you that it destroyed the 3 Arian tribes which are spoken in Daniel 7:24. But anyway there's alot of clues that the Catholic Church is the Beast of Revelation and not God's True Church. I have tons of information on these subjects in-\nhttp://community.webshots.com/user/morrisonmcdf1

This is what Dan Brown would have you believe, but there is no historical evidence to back him up.   In particular,\n\n1) The Council of Nicea (AD 325) did not even discuss the question of "canon" (that is, what belongs in the Bible)!!   In any case, well before this time there was widespread agreement on which books were accepted  (evidence going back to the early 2nd century).   There is NO evidence of authorities "inserting" or "removing" stuff.\n\n2) Not only did Constantine not foist his own view of the deity of Christ on others,  ALL those at this Council (representing the viewpoing of churches throughout the Roman world) agreed that Jesus was divine!   The only question was precisely how that idea was to be UNDERSTOOD.   \n\nAlso, contrary to various insinuations, the vote was not even close!   The Council of Nicea was almost unanimous in its final statement (two out of over three hundred disagreed... though again, they did NOT disagree that Jesus was divine!)

No, by definition.\n\nNo, there is a lot of historical evidence that he existed, regardless wether you believe he is the son of god.\n\nYes, There is overwhelming evidence that both the old and new testaments were engineered by the catholic church and everyone else that touched it.

I think santaria is a very interesting example of religious syncretism between west african beliefs and catholicism.  I am not Catholic but I think if someone is true to Catholicism and the legitimacy of the pope then they would have to reject Santaria.  That is just my opinion though.  I find it very interesting how much variation there is in catholicism despite the authority of the vatican.

No, this is not true.  What about Christ or mother Theresa, do you think they are in hell?  What about Saint John the babtist? Or the apostles?  Whoever told you this was wrong.  You go to hell by your own choices.

I don't see why not. Surely Christians are capable of distinguishing between truth and fiction. Just because the DaVinci Code has a high degree of verisimilitude and is virtually impossible to prove untrue (not being composed of scientifically verifiable statements) doesn't mean it's the TRUTH.\n\nOr does it?

Francesco Redi answered that one in 1668, and the short answer is yes.  Live ones.\n\nvisit the links below for more info

No...and I believe the following will enlighten you to some of the falsities of The Da Vinci Code.  It was a very good book, and I enjoyed it, but remember, it's fiction.  It's not a historical account, a classroom text, or any other nonfiction work.  It does not have to be (and is not) true.\n\n\nThe Da Vinci Code, the Catholic Church and Opus Dei\nA response to The Da Vinci Code from the Prelature of Opus Dei in the United States. \n\nApril 17, 2006 \nMany people are intrigued by the claims about Christian history and theology presented in The Da Vinci Code. We would like to remind them that The Da Vinci Code is a work of fiction, and it is not a reliable source of information on these matters. \n\nThe Da Vinci Code has raised public interest in the origins of the Bible and of central Christian doctrines such as the divinity of Jesus Christ. These topics are important and valuable to study, and we hope that interested readers will be motivated to study some of the abundant scholarship on them that is available in the non-fiction section of the library. \n\nThose who do further research and exercise critical judgment will discover that assertions made in The Da Vinci Code about Jesus Christ, Mary Magdalene, and Church history lack support among reputable scholars. By way of example, The Da Vinci Code popularizes the idea that the fourth century Roman emperor Constantine invented the doctrine of the divinity of Christ for political reasons. The historical evidence, however, clearly shows that the New Testament and the very earliest Christian writings manifest Christian belief in the divinity of Christ. Other examples of discredited claims presented in The Da Vinci Code can be found in this FAQ from Catholic Answers or at the US Bishops' website, www.jesusdecoded.com. For those who are willing to take the time to get to the bottom of the issues raised in The Da Vinci Code, we recommend reading The Da Vinci Deception, De-Coding Da Vinci, or The Da Vinci Hoax. \n\nWe also want to point out that The Da Vinci Code’s depiction of Opus Dei is inaccurate, both in the overall impression and in many details, and it would be irresponsible to form any opinion of Opus Dei based on The Da Vinci Code. Those interested in learning more about the real Opus Dei may wish to read What is Opus Dei?, by Dominique LeTourneau, or Uncommon Faith, by John Coverdale. For those interested in further information about the various false impressions The Da Vinci Code gives of Opus Dei, please continue reading. \n\nPlease let us know if you need someone to speak about Opus Dei for a panel or other event about The Da Vinci Code -- we may have a speaker available in your area.  Also, free resource downloads for study groups and parishes are available from the group, Da Vinci Outreach.\n\n\n1. Opus Dei and monks \n\n\nThroughout The Da Vinci Code, Opus Dei members are presented as monks (or, rather, caricatures of monks). Like all Catholics, Opus Dei members have great appreciation for monks, but in fact there are no monks in Opus Dei. Opus Dei is a Catholic institution for lay people and diocesan priests, not a monastic order. \n\nOpus Dei’s approach to living the faith does not involve withdrawing from the world like those called to the monastic life. Rather, Opus Dei helps people grow closer to God in and through their ordinary secular activities. \n\n“Numerary” members of Opus Dei – a minority – choose a vocation of celibacy in order to be available to organize the activities of Opus Dei. They do not, however, take vows, wear robes, sleep on straw mats, spend all their time in prayer and corporal mortification, or in any other way live like The Da Vinci Code’s depiction of its monk character. In contrast to those called to the monastic life, numeraries have regular secular professional work. \n\nIn fact, The Da Vinci Code gets Opus Dei’s nature 180 degrees backwards. Monastic orders are for people who have a vocation to seek holi

"I found Angels and Demons to be too far fetched, what with Langdon falling out of a plane and surviving!! But I suppose it is possible that the Vatican could be breached, since 9/11 it's painfully clear that nowhere is safe."\n\nTrue but if you needed that as evidence then you are to naive. Vatican can be breached but people smart enough to do so would also be smart enough to realize the negitive consequences of doing so.

Hard as it may seem to believe, even the Catholic Church says other churchs of Christianty are not the "true" faith.\n\nWhen I was homeless, I used to go into a Catholic church across the street.  Right there in the literature, it said other churches were false.\n\nDon't you just love it how each religion says the other is false?  I thought there was just one God.  \n\nSo, what's the problem?

No one knows for certain However tradition holds that parts of it exist\nPieces of the True Cross, including the half of the INRI inscription tablet, preserved at the ancient basilica Santa Croce in Gerusalemme in Rome. Very small pieces or particles of the True Cross are preserved in hundreds of other churches in Europe.

Da Vinci code can not be proven true.  People are playing it off to be a huge conspiracy.  I think it's a load of horse pucky. If it were true it would have been completely covered up YEARS AGO.  The church has a huge amount of power, even still today.

Ive heard of christians that convert people at gunpoint. in my opinion thats a true christian (TM)  they have done that since Roman times and they will never stop being that way. the Mafia came from Rome and so did christianity. i dont think thats a coincidence.
