They were not Catholic sources. I checked federal sources, Protestant sources, and more. None of them were Catholic.
It does not matter. Do your own research. Barrett claimed 21. So thirty non-Catholic denominations maximum would be about right, but if you include the cults it could be slightly more. The claims that there are thousands of denominations is TOTALLY BOGUS and meant to support the claim that the church of Rome is the true Church.

You know how denominations work, right? Catholicism is broken into groups.
There are some that don't worship Maria (Mary) and believe her as sinless.
In his 1894 apostolic letter, Orientalium Dignitas, Pope Leo XIII had this to say: In regards to
“the True Faith”, it goes without saying that all twenty-three Eastern Catholic Churches submit
to the doctrines and dogmas defined by the Catholic Church. All Catholics are under the pope.
The popes have decreed that it is MANDATORY for Catholics to believe Mary was sinless. If you
don't want to believe what you are SUPPOSED to in order to be a Catholic, you cannot really say
you are a Catholic. One might also wonder why you would want to be if you reject Catholic beliefs.

Makes sense. The padre at my church never told us that his was mandatory. He said that we could decide whether or not we believed it.

Too funny. He does not understand his own church. Ex cathedra dogmas are mandatory for the
Catholic to believe. Look it up, and maybe let your padre know, too. He really should know that.
Nor would it seem wise to join a congregation whose leader encourages disobedience.

Maybe he does understand, maybe he just didn't agree with it and decided to tell us opposite. Some padres do that.

So they are wolves in sheep's clothing, and you want to follow them? Weird.

I pray for the padre at my church everyday. I ask God to let Him preach the right things and let Him speak truth. I trust God in that.

He'd get kicked out if he suddenly started preaching the Truth of God's Word over Catholicism's doctrines, dogmas, and beliefs.

So now your say in that God has failed me! He never has and I know for a fact that He never will!

To whom are you speaking? I know you know how to use the quote feature. Why don't you?

If that was aimed at me, it is a false accusation. I said no such thing. You ought not to lie like that.

I accidentally clicked the X out thing. I was talking to you.
You have not used the quote feature for some time now. It is there for a reason.

What you claimed is a false accusation. I said no such thing. You ought not to lie like that.

I have been using another app and I'm used to clicking the X out because this person gets made when I don't use it.

You said that it was false about what I said, but I guess I just took it wrong.

I never said anything about God failing you. Nothing even close, nor resembling it in any way, nor hinted at, or implied.

Is all you want to talk about Catholicism?

Why not go to a site where the Catholics are free to discuss all their errors with you?

I actually tried to find a Catholic site, but I couldn't find one. This one kept popping up, so I decided to try it out.

That's God at work. He's exposing you to the truth before you get so invested in Catholicism that you think its lies are the truth.

Maybe so, but I do have many Catholic friends that help me in life mainly through talking about God and Catholicism and it's truth all the time. Maybe God is trying to say something to the world, but we don't know His plan yet! Only He knows. I keep meaning to tell everyone and I think it is a good time. I have the gift of profecy, which means I have visions. I had a vision a few weeks ago about the rapture, I think it's going to happen very soon.

Not all visions mean you have the gift of prophecy. Lots of people want to believe they have that.

Lots of people think that too. In fact, some have been thinking that for a very very long time.

I mean that it had a clue of it in the vision. God spoke to me, using His image and His voice. He told me, "It is soon"

2.000 years ago, Jesus said He was returning soon. Are you prepared?
