Question
Dear Sal,

          How are you doing? Its been a while since I have asked you a question. I am tring very hard to find my one true place meaning my true calling in life. What do you say about catholics are they correct is it really the only true church out there? Is Episcolpalism, Protestent, Mormons, Baptist, Jahovah witness, Presypterians, Orthodox, Puritans, also Methodist i.e. not true religions are they man made? What is your veiw on them? Is every thing right in the catholic faith? Was Jesus really born on Christmas day? Others believe he was born in October 1st why is that? How should we catholics celebrate christmas? What is the right way and the right foods to cook? A pastor on 103.1 FM said that catholics are babylon is this true why do they critize our religion?

                     Happy Holidays
God bless you

Answer
Dear Jacqueline:
As I have said before, the Catholic Church is the only Church that God wanted man to have. It possesses the full Gospel of God. All other churches are man-made and therefore, contain error mixed in with the truth. These other fallen churches attack the Catholic Church because they want to feel better about rebelling against God's True Church. If they can convince themselves that the Catholic Church is "Babylon" then they will feel a little better about their decision to attend some other man-made church. But God keeps after their consciences and it still bothers them that the Catholic Church is so true to God in all things.

There is no way to know from the Bible exactly when Jesus was born. Does it matter? I don't think so. But the Church has taught that it was Dec. 25.

God Bless You,
Sal
