    The Politicization of Pope Francis

    A lot of non Catholics DO care about this Pope much more than former ones, all for their own reasons, which I don't know. I assume just because he comes off as a happier, more likable guy. Also, if you're reading stuff about him, it suggests there is some degree of "care", despite you're...

    The Politicization of Pope Francis

    I don't think those are really center left statements. I haven't heard say inequality is good. And the idea that capitalism can be harmful, that's not out of mainstream thinking as far as I'm concerned, even for repubs. I believe that our form of capitalism is about the best thing going so far...

    The Politicization of Pope Francis

    I doubt that he's even center-left-ish. From the article... I think he'd rather not talk about the hot button issue which people use as criteria for putting others in the left wing box or right wing box. But if anyone ever does really nail him down on those issue, I think we'd find that...

    The Politicization of Pope Francis

    Pope Francis is coming to America! Estimated time of arrival is September, 2015. But already, more than a year before he's scheduled to set foot on United States soil, the politicization of Pope Francis, and of Christianity itself has already begun. Our leaders in Washington just couldn't leave...

    Test of Faith: America's Border Crisis

    If God were to test the faith of American Christians, what better way to do it than by flooding our southern border with a deluge of illegal immigrants? What better timing for the test than a time of economic woe and high unemployment? What clearer, more stark choice could he offer between the...

    Why won't nonCatholics help fulfill this prophecy?

    It doesn't have to self identify, it tells us what's going to happen in the future, and it proved to be true....because all generations (of Catholics) do call her blessed. The fact that you don't want it to be prophetic is obvious but that doesn't make it so, no matter how hard to try to...

    Where does Jesus Christ fit in?

    Where does Jesus Christ fit in?

    It certainly doesn't lead to conformity. I know folks who have practiced good works with a reward in mind and there's nothing particularly conformist about them. Some of them are the odd man our, some aren't. And it's also not true that people who believe otherwise necessarily have a higher...

    Where does Jesus Christ fit in?

    That doesn't mean that it's wrong for someone to do good works with the idea of reward in mind. That type of reasoning can get a person on the road of good works and the road can lead the person to a better perspective on good works, a less selfish perspective. As a child might clean his room...

    Heaven: A Place on Earrth

    Near death experiences vary a LOT from I understand. Also, the rapture is a pretty new theology in the history of Christianity....again, from what I understand
