[Pius-Augustine]

Explaining why Christians believe they and they alone have the truth would take far more space than is allowed here. I can only speak for traditional Catholicism, a fundamental tenet of which is ‘extra ecclesiam nulla salus’ — no salvation outside the (Catholic) Church. ‘Modern’ Catholics no longer believe this but traditionalists do. I will share my faith, and why we believe this is true, with anyone who cares to hear about it, but all someone has to tell me is ‘I don’t want to hear that’, and I’ll pursue it no further. Traditional Catholicism makes no presuppositions about ‘different and equal truths for different people’ and neither do most orthodox Christian denominations. We’re just following the Bible and the 2000-year teaching of the Church. That may sound intolerant, but it is our faith and we believe we are commanded to pursue it that way. It’s done out of love, not hatred, and if you were to read the Bible through our eyes, you’d understand that. I would rather risk offending man by sharing my faith than offending God by defying His commission to do precisely that.
