No, you blamed Luther, you blamed everything but RC corruption, indulgences indeed?
read Luthers 95 thesis if you are allowed by your church, thinking RC faithful are no different to JW believers, reading your comments
as for the 10 commandments, they were from Moses to the Jews, does that make RCicism a Jewish sect, that you are under every Jewish law? Really?
explain that please
sounds like you don’t know what you believe
