    The 7 most annoying bumper sticker slogans of the past twenty years...

    Maybe Christians should go with a loaf of bread instead of the fish. Maybe it won't be altered like the poor fish was. You'd think that those uppity Darwinians could think of their own symbol. I guess a monkey in street clothes as a bumper sticker doesn't properly convey their ideologies. Lol

    Is Transubstantiation Biblical?

    I think it's entirely biblical. Christ changes his flesh and blood into true food and true drink.To me, his intent is clear.

    seducing spirits and doctrines of demons

    Funny, The priest that married my wife and I never tried to talk us out of it. Maybe he never got the memo on forbidding marriage.

    How did you come back to the church?

    Thank you for all your answers and prayers. Time is what I have precious little of. I keep thinking little steps, but taking that first is hard. Lenten renewal is always a constant theme in our diocese( I imagine it is everywhere). Prior to my current funk I was going to confession every 2 weeks...

    The Catholic Church And Sheryl Crow

    Maybe he was afraid he was gonna have to shake hands with her? After all she only uses one square of toilet paper! But honestly folks, the man is standing up for his beliefs and the character of his church. There is nothing wrong with that. If the charity falls way short of it's target then...

    The Da Vinci Code ~ What's up with that?

    The apostle 3rd on his left has no facial hair either and also has a feminine air about him. I watched a debunking show on TV about this. They said that John was the youngest and most handsome and this was the way that Leonardo portrayed this. Also if Mr Browns arguments had any merit, why...

    Dispensationalism-Catholic view

    I was just wondering if the view of dispensationalism ( God "dispenses" himself differently to every age to make his word more relevant to the accorded time) is the basis of protestantism. I'm not sure whether I have this term correctly applied, but that is the gist of what I'm understanding...

    Ever hear of this?

    There is a person whom I work with who has some far out "Christian" beliefs. He says he believes that Cain is the product of Satan and Eve, whilst Abel is the offspring of Adam and Eve. He says this happened in a menage a trois in the Garden. We are supposedly incorrect in believing that the...

    Stray lamb returns to OBOB fold....

    Good speech! I know how you feel. I had to do the same thing when I went through RCIA a few years ago. Standing in front of 200 people and trying to put a coherent sentence together is tougher than anything this side of childbirth. You know they say to make yourself comfortable by imagining...

    A question of adultery of the eyes- Please help

    Thank you for all your replies, I'm starting to get a little more insight into how i should be viewing this problem. I'm being a little too harsh, but also need to be practicing turning away after the initial look. I just thank God that the whole plucking my eyes out thing isn't literal. I'd...

    Reformation Day!

    I second that emotion!!! I see the church as what Jesus said it would be and one of the biggest hints that is overlooked by protestants is that for all the turmoil that has surrounded our great church was prophecied by Christ himself. The gates of hell will not prevail against her, not can not...

    A question of adultery of the eyes- Please help

    I went to reconciliation yesterday for the first time in 7 mos. I haven't been a catholic for long, but what stands out to me is my predilection for this one sin in particular. I asked this question on Ask Father .com, but the answer I recieved was too indirect for me to make a conclusion. Now...
