Well he’s basically dogging the Catholic Church and the so called “man-made traditions” and his most recent one is the Inquisition and I have been trying to make him understand through scripture. So he goes on to say that he used to be Catholic and by going to this website his eyes were “opened”. I need to have some kind of background before I go and dispute the errancies behind his attacks. But I am not doing this in an aggresive manner. I am trying to show him through love and kindness. But I don’t want to make any more comments until I know about this website. I suppose I could go in and investigate. But I just wanted to know if anyone here has any kind of info of this site.I think they frown upon posting to “anti-catholic” sites if that’s what that is.
But is there a particular argument there you have questions about? There are some knowledgeable people here I’m sure can mince any such argument.
Wow,…former priest huh? Wonder why he fell away then?
Curiosity got the better of me and I clicked the link. I think they may have let their web site lapse. It is just a bunch of ads for companies related to catholicism, including the Catholic League.
If it was an anti-Catholic site, it seems to have expired. 
It’s actually bereanbeacon.org…Curiosity got the better of me and I clicked the link. I think they may have let their web site lapse. It is just a bunch of ads for companies related to catholicism, including the Catholic League.
Actually (once I went to the right link), I found it quite amusing.
Sometimes when a person spits that much poison at Christ in the name of Christ, it might be best to not cast pearls before swine. As St. Ambrose once said:To avoid dissensions we should be ever on our guard, more especially with those who drive us to argue with them, with those who vex and irritate us, and who say things likely to excite us to anger. When we find ourselves in company with quarrelsome, eccentric individuals, people who openly and unblushingly say the most shocking things, difficult to put up with, we should take refuge in silence, and the wisest plan is not to reply to people whose behavior is so preposterous. Those who insult us and treat us contumeliously are anxious for a spiteful and sarcastic reply: the silence we then affect disheartens them, and they cannot avoid showing their vexation; they do all they can to provoke us and to elicit a reply, but the best way to baffle them is to say nothing, refuse to argue with them, and to leave them to chew the cud of their hasty anger.
As much as he was bragging about his education, it seems he wasn’t paying much attention in class.
He never noticed that the Breviary IS using parts of the Bible itself?
He points out some of his other sins but never seems to recognize the sin of pride.
Just to be clear James White and Dave Hunt disagreements are along the arminian/calvin lines of dispute. I doubt that the views they hold on the RCC are really much different except likely in regards to the woman and the beast of end times.

“used to be Catholic” is the 2nd biggest religion. :sad_yes:
