Protestant Assumptions about the Assumption

By Bernice Pillart Dumitru
I had three older brothers when I was growing up and so our house was always filled first with boys and later young men. My Mom was central to our house and central to them when they were there.

How Come You Catholics Pray to Dead People?
By Bill Dunn
“How come you Catholics pray to dead people? The Bible clearly says in Leviticus 19:26 that being involved with séances and trying to communicate with the dead is strictly forbidden.

Prayer and worship is reserved for God alone, which means you Catholics are committing a vile sin"
