You're a fucking dunce. You won't stop there. You'll continue to ask stupid ass questions about a religion not to know the answers, but to try to make it look bad.

His message to mankind has been the same throughout time. Worship God only, and do righteous good deeds. That was the message Adam was given, that was the message Noah was given, that was the message Abraham was given, that was the message Jesus was given, that was the message Muhammad was given, that was the message that all the prophets (some of which are known and some unknown by man) were given. Muslims believe in much of the gospel. If you read the Old Testament (Torah), the message is similar to the Noble Qu'ran. The message is to worship God alone ascribing no partners to him, to follow the messengers, and to do righteous good deeds. Then after the Prophet Jesus died, Paul and others came along and altered the text of the bible and started teaching that Jesus was God, and that Jesus had died to save their sins. So many fell into error because of this. The Qu'ran is God's final revelation to men, and Muhammad was not just sent to a people of one region, but the message he revealed was the final message and one in which God was sending to all of mankind...........so the only deviation we have is Paul and his people teaching that Jesus was God and that he died for our sins. If you leave out that corruption, then Muhammad's monotheistic message is consistent with all other prophets before him.

So according to Catholics, when does he get to start talking to God? Is it before, or after he's elected? Don't Catholics believe he can forgive their sins and talk to God, etc.?I don't believe in all that intercession and all that, but I'll be respectful because the last Pope worked to biuld stronger relationships with Muslims and he was driven towards World Peace.Still, could one of the educated Catholics like MDogg explain to me exactly what the Popes role is and what, if any, relationship he has to God?
