What Protestants Answer, Catholics Mystify

I appreciate that Catholicism says, "I don't know for sure, but here are the scriptures, the texts, the tradition, the history, and the miracles to explain why."

We don't know 100%.  That's why it is faith!

It seems Protestantism attempts to answer those questions 100%.  They study and argue, argue and study and wind up with 30,000 different answers, each believing they have the truth with the scriptures to back it up.  The others have the scriptures to refute it.

I attend a Baptist church that believes in "once saved always saved."  I do not believe that (as most AGers don't) and we could argue until Kingdom come with scriptures.

Catholics leave the door open.  Sure, you have to agree to their catechism to be in the Church, but they know that we just don't know 100%.  However, to create a unified body throughout the world and throughout time, the Church has to have a unified agreement of beliefs.  I can respect that.

It is face-palming the willy-nilly of the Protestant church.  30,000 denominations, people, of a church Christ intended to be pretty much unified (personalities and cultures and climates, aside).

Mysteries, the Catholic Church calls them.  Mysteries because we don't know for sure.  For all we know we'll get to the ever after and God'll say, "yep, those Catholics had it right."  Or "Nope, you all got it wrong."
