Tradition over Truth. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. If you're not seeking and serving Truth, you're not seeking and serving HIM, the only Way to everlasting Life. The catholic church serves their own made up traditions and lies. People try to figure things out that they don't understand, they come up with something that makes sense to them and then teach it as fact. Then it's held on to forever because of people like you that believe it as gospel, while ignoring the True Word of God... Truth.  Revelation 13:11  Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon.  Matthew 7:21-23  Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’  Repent and seek Truth! Don't reject the TRUE Jesus Christ because of the satanic lies you've been taught. God Bless.
