Re: Catholicism Questions

Maltz: I'm curious to, why is it thought Jesus had no original sin? We have a high priest that can relate to our fallen nature... NO human inherits Adam's sin, but ONLY his sin NATURE, due to the Fall. Humans are not born sinning, but born with the inevitability that they will, at some early point,...

Re: What is a church?

Crochet, the reality is, I have definitely experienced all I wrote about. But it was meant as a fun satire, a bit of a parody, as like Rick alluded to, "church" can look like a lot of different things. It can be three friends meeting in a coffee shop to fellowship and share or study God's ...

Re: What is a church?

Well, I'm pretty sure, it's got a building with a steeple. And if that steeple doesn't have a cross up yonder - well, it's probably the home of some cult. And every Sunday morning at 11 a.m., right after Sunday School lets out, a prim and proper old lady with lots of perfectly sprayed and coiffed ha...

Re: Shroud of Turin

OK, Bip - you can let your machine gun cool off now, if just for a bit (hear's him reloading) - I think you just killed it! :lol:

Re: American Women and the Draft - DAFT???

1) We gotta take into consideration how this might impact families and societies - our military families are already stressed to the max, so many deployments, transfers, etc. 2) For all the PC assertions of "girl power" and how "a woman can do anything a man can," the reality is,...

Re: Questions for Theistic Evolutionists

Audie: Attitude is a detail but science runs on data. When someone has data to show Einstein got something wrong, people sit up. Oh, like when, in 1931, when Einstein briefly considered the Steady State of the Universe model, but then realized that theoretical calculations of his and others, like H...

Re: Catholicism Questions

Story: I do trust Christ though, and there is a reason for all this. I agree. Story: I respect you, a lot, but I respect Byblos and ES too so it's only fair I listen. But, of course! I pray about this constantly, so far, He hasnt let me down. I trust the HS. God. Fantastic! And if one ever thinks G...

Re: Abortion Law in Progress?

I love what Mother Teresa said about abortion. And remember, we in the West have NO true concept of poverty like she did, as she saw the some of the poorest, starving people in the world, in the gutters and ghettos of India. And yet she strongly felt NO one is so poor that abortion is their only opt...

Re: Catholicism Questions

I hope Annette realizes why I am passionate that she understands this issue. And it's not because I'm trying to recruit her to my favorite sports team, or to some pointless understandings that don't really matter. But she had best realize that when it comes to understanding and honoring God, to bene...

Re: Abortion Law in Progress?

If little Eddie, when just a tiny little thing, swimming in his mama's tummy, had been killed by her, the life that is Mr. Ed would have been snuffed out as well. Does it really matter at what point Ed had been killed? The result would be NO Ed, no married Ed, no Ed's children, because what was in p...

Re: Catholicism Questions

Is it emotional to react to the clear, not only unScriptural and contradictory of Scripture of statements by so many popes, but just look at the hideous and dangerous things they have said, and have done so in speaking as the sovereigns of the CC: Here's a few beauts by Saint Pope Nicholas I: Writin...

Re: American Women and the Draft - DAFT???

Rick: They do have mess tents with kitchens in the military, don't they? The soldiers need good "home cooked" meals. It's would be great for morale. I vote for women to be drafted, as cooks, and people to bring beer to the soldiers after a long day. Private Suzie Sandwich Maker? :shock: :D
