New tract I found for Catholics: thoughts?

[LionHeart777]

There are definitely quite a few theological presuppositions underlying the criticisms in the tract. I also didn’t like the use of the phrase “Holy Father,” as it seems to poke fun at the Catholic use of that phrase. The writer might not have meant it sarcastically, but it almost seems that way.

Overall the tract strikes me as something done very quickly, with little research or preparation behind it. As such, what it will most likely accomplish is to elicit a “Here we go, another ignorant Protestant” response from Catholics who read it, and little more. I agree with their use of the commandments as a preparation for talking about what Christ did on the cross, though.

I agree that the author needs to be more familiar with Catholic teaching as it seems to set up and tear down a straw man (or many?) Forgive me if I was uncharitable towards the author or yourself in my response. I understand where they are coming from as I use to hold those similar if not the same presuppositions as in the tract.
