A Complete Waste of Space

I do hope that your knee to chin contact was not too painful. I said Catholic Church, not the people in the Church so biggot cannot apply. As for ignorant, that would be you. I can back up my statement historically and bibically! Care to dive into the subject and learn some things?

How can the Catholic Church exist without the people in the church?
Do those people not make up the church?

Hierarchy, doctrine etc. Come on now, it's not that hard!

Sorry, my mistake. I assumed that the hierarchy of the Catholic Church was comprised of people.

I'm intelligent enough to know that the Catholic Church isn't anti Christ.

No, that would make you ignorant of the doctrines of the Catholic Church, the teachings of Christ, the Bible and the term anti Christ.

Actually, I can hold my own pretty darn well in all of those departments. Which specific doctrine of the Catholic Church do you find to be anti Christ?

Lets start with the 10 Commandments.

Pick up your Bible and read the 10 Commandments, now google the Catholic Church's version.

Daniel 7:25 “And he (the Anti Christ) shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change TIMES and LAWS: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time(the dark ages).” (I can go over the Prophecy of Daniel if you need to)

“The church, after changing the day of rest from the Jewish Sabbath of the seventh day of the week to the first made the third commandment refer to Sunday as the day to be kept holy as the Lord's Day.” Catholic Encyclopaedia Vol. 4, p. 153

“The authority of the Church is illustrated most clearly by the scriptures, for on one hand she recommends them, declares them to be divine, and offers them to us to be read, and on the other hand, the legal precepts in the scriptures taught by the Lord have ceased by virtue of the same authority. The Sabbath, the most glorious day in the law, has been changed into the Lord's day. These and other similar matters have not ceased by virtue of Christ's teaching (for He says that He has come to fulfill the law, not to destroy it), but they have been changed by the authority of the Church.” — Gaspare de Posso Archbishop of Reggio, Council of Trent.

We observe Sunday instead of Saturday because the Catholic Church, in the Council of Laodicea (A.D. 364), transferred the solemnity from Saturday to Sunday.” — Peter Geiermann, C.S.S.R., The Convert's Catechism of Catholic Doctrine, p. 50, 3rd edition, 1957.

Daniel is a good start. Not to many people pay attention to the Old Testament any more.
How does Daniel 7:25 give you the idea that the hierarchy of the Catholic Church is anti Christ?
Keep in mind what Daniel is talking about in the second half of his book. The apocalypse. The end of times.
How does Daniel 7:25 differ from John 1:7? And how can either one be considered to be anti Christ?
Also from Daniel: "The great nations of the world have risen against Yahweh; but God's Kingdom shall overthrow existing powers and last forever" How is that anti Christ?
