    Narconon rehab

    Narconon is run by the Church of Scientology, a new-age religous movement with roots in buddhism and gnosticims. The program itself, from what I gather, involves replacing drugs with running and exercise. I have a book on it but haven't been bothered to read it.

    The Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist will be on "Oprah" again!

    I may have to accidently have the TV on during that day, because Men are not allowed to watch Oprah ;)

    Catholic's, at what point does it become the body?

    She's Eastern Orthodox, they, as far as I know, recieve communion mixed with the blood of Christ (Catholics can too) and swallow it.

    Is this acceptable? What are your thoughts?

    I'm not a Pentecostal, but I'm pretty sure most pentecostal churches are created equal. The only way it'd be wrong is if you willingly attend and support a church that is theologically unsound

    Pope and saints

    A "saint" is technically any baptized person living or dead (the communion of saints). So the pentecostal view of "we're all saints" isn't quite far off. A Saint is technically anyone in heaven. That's why Angels are called Saints. A canonized Saint is someone that, the Church has good...

    Which ECF is your favorite?

    I personally like Saint Ignatius of Antioch. In his writings he acted like getting thrown to the lions was no biggie. I always thought that was impressive

    Dating a Non-Virgin Christian Girl

    Don't forget it takes two people to have sex. Her sexual past could have been any number of things, maybe she was just in a relationship with a great guy who didn't think having sex was a big deal. Maybe she was with a guy who played with her emotions. But you have to be objective and look...

    Is Marriage really a Sacrament?

    Why do they not agree that marriage is a sacrament? Out of all the sacraments it seems to be the most agreeable to me.

    RCIA Question

    If you're not baptised, it's best to take RCIA. If you have a valid baptism (i.e. in the name of the father son and holy spirit, not just in the name of Jesus) but are new to Catholicism it's best to take RCIA. If you're baptised Catholic and are an adult, but need to be confirmed it'd be a...

    Mary is AN ark of the new covenant, not THE ark of the new covenant.

    What was inside the Arc of the Covenant? Inside was the 10 commandments, a jar of manna, and Aaron's rod. Jesus was the law made flesh, the bread of life, and the prophet to lead us back to God.

    We Cannot Loose Our Salvation

    If you're saved forever, then what is a deadly sin? Apparently you can sin so bad that you're beyond praying for. 1 John 5:16

    how do you enter the shower?

    #3 all the way. Sometimes if I'm at someone else's house and have no idea how the shower works I do it the second way. It's the only good Catholic way.

    Best Catholic Books?

    I like: The Lambs Supper by Scott Hahn (although it's not so good for people that aren't catholic and have never been to a catholic mass) Healing by Francis MacNutt O.P. Any good Book of Saints. The Imitation of Christ --- great book written in short passages, so you can almost make a...
