Oct 2	reviewed	Reviewed Jesus was sent to speak to the Jews only?
Oct 2	comment	Why are Independent Baptist Fundamentalists labelled Protestants? @dongle26 "We believe it was heretical from the beginning of its foundation" sounds very much like a protesting statement to me. It's also in grave danger of being wrong, depending on your point of view [about when and how the Catholic Church was founded].
Oct 1	comment	Are non-Catholics allowed to go to confession? I would posit that 844.4 is not inconsistent with 959 or 204.1 or my answer. One would not approach a Catholic priest for confession without manifesting Catholic faith in respect of the sacrament.
Oct 1	comment	Why are Independent Baptist Fundamentalists labelled Protestants? I have a feeling that the Church of England (and thus the Anglican Communion in general) might have something to say about only Lutherans being Protestants.

Sep 30	comment	When did the church in the city of Rome first try to impose a tradition on other churches? I don't believe this is written from a neutral viewpoint and the obvious bias makes it unreliable as an answer. Quite apart from whether it's the answer to the asked question, and it doesn't appear to me that it is.
Sep 30	comment	Do Catholic priests have to report child abuse confessed in secret? @Ryan See Cann 984 §2 and 964 §3 (and 964 §1). However these are better raised in another question than comments. And I see there is one: What makes a confession sacramental?

Sep 27	reviewed	Reviewed Are Paul's letters to be taken as God's word?
Sep 27	awarded	Custodian
Sep 27	reviewed	Edit suggested edit on Did the early Church Fathers have a complete agreement on how to interpret 1 Peter 3:18-20?
Sep 27	revised	Did the early Church Fathers have a complete agreement on how to interpret 1 Peter 3:18-20? scripture added, title changed
Sep 26	revised	Do Catholic priests have to report child abuse confessed in secret? Corrected inconsistency in gender
Sep 26	answered	Do Catholic priests have to report child abuse confessed in secret?
Aug 31	comment	Why does Judaism celebrate Sabbath on Saturday and most Christians celebrate Sabbath on Sunday? @Flimzy Saturday comes from Saturn, which is the god Romans worshipped on that day of the week. Other languages do translate Sabbath though.
Aug 31	answered	When and where did Pope Paul VI say the “Mass is the most perfect form of prayer”?
Aug 15	answered	What's the tradition behind hand holding during the Our Father at Mass?
Aug 14	comment	According to Reformed Theology, are Catholics Christians? Citations would be useful, I think. For example, what are "erroneous statements about what it takes to be saved"?
Aug 13	comment	According to Reformed Theology, are Catholics Christians? @waxeagle I suppose it would be possible to go through the Westminster Confession and cross-reference the Catechism of the Catholic Church. I think that fails the scope test.
Aug 13	comment	According to Reformed Theology, are Catholics Christians? Is this really reasonably scoped? "If you can imagine an entire book that answers your question, you’re asking too much." And how do you classify "fundamental belief"?
