    The Assumption of Mary

    I once again have a few questions for you guys and gals. Why is this important to your faith? At what part of her life do you believe she was taken? Why didn't she just go when Jesus departed? She was Jesus's mother on the earth, but does that apply to Him after his crucifixion, burial...

    Westboro Baptist Church

    This may seem like a question that a hapless person might ask... but is this topic still about Westboro Baptist Church? Have the last four or five pages brought us to some realization about what causes them to operate in ridiculous outward acts of savage protest? Does it have something to do...

    The Assumption of Mary

    Ancient churches or ancient church? It seems that this belief wasn't propogated until after the church had been established for quite a spell. You're totally right, she was obedient to God just as so many others have been before her lifetime, during, and after her lifetime. She gave birth to...

    The Assumption of Mary

    Maybe I'm confused, but I don't see what purpose it serves to venerate Mary in such a manner. So we could have something else to disagree on? That's convenient, if you're the enemy... not so much for the body of Christ though. I will say one thing-the lifting up of the Mary and her near...

    The Eucharist: Symbolic, Real Presence, Transubstantiation

    I have a curious question that may have been answered between pages three and seven (I should utilize the search function more often.) Before asking it, know that I don't have anything against communion and I know that it can be very faith building. That being said, I would like to know which...

    Westboro Baptist Church

    I really think that this conversation needs to come back square with the question originally posed by the thread starter. The rabbit trails need to be cut off, and Comic Sans is the worst font to use if you want to be taken seriously as a debatist. (Anything curvy usually distracts from the...
