WAA Podcast Episode 60: Are Adventists Just Plain Nuts? (58:25)

Welcome to another podcast episode of “What’s an Adventist?”
It is a historical fact that the Roman Catholic Church has a track record of religious repression and persecution. So when it was recently reported that Rome could be the new center for religious liberty the natural response was “huh?” Although we are centuries removed from the days of the Protestant reformation, Adventism has within in genetic code, if you would, the very spirit that led the Protestant reformers to break with the Roman Church and to perceive it as a threat to religious freedom. Some believe that these “Protestant” attitudes and ideas about the Catholic Church are outdated and old news and see any attempt at criticizing the Church as just plain hateful. 
This week Jesse Sias and Abraham Miranda provide a commentary on this issue of Catholicism and religious liberty from an Adventist perspective. The views expressed here are not intended to promote anti-Catholic sentiments, but to show how Adventist’s view and perceive these important issues and developments. We ask that Adventists and anyone that hears this information share it in a thoughtful and loving way. And if you don't know enough about this issue, please study it further before sharing. Also in this podcast Jesse and Abraham explore the idea of whether Adventists are completely out of touch with reality and are conspiracy theory junkies. 
By the way, this podcast is in no way part of a larger conspiracy to make everyone in the world accept the “Adventistee” way of life...or is it?
