    Rome's statements regarding: Muslim cartoons and religious freedom.

    While I believe its wrong to insult people for the heck of it, I do believe that we in the West have a right to freedom of expression. If the moslems can't handle that and believe that they have a God given right to "cut peoples heads off" then they are overdue the acquistion of a little...

    Rome's statements regarding: Muslim cartoons and religious freedom.

    You seem to be saying that if the RCC really believed that hurting other people's religious sensibilities was wrong then Luther, Calvin and a host of others would never have bolted the Church. Come on...fella. Certainly they would have. The Catholic Church was in desparate need of reform and the...

    Rome's statements regarding: Muslim cartoons and religious freedom.

    I am a Catholic and I have not cried out to you nor have I sought to have you squelched. Furthermore, when most Catholics are confronted with the truth they will recognize it as such, unless of course they misunderstand or disagree. Assuming we that we all understand each other then it would...

    Rome's statements regarding: Muslim cartoons and religious freedom.

    The first Catholic settlement in North America was in Maryland. There the Catholics in charge of the Govt allowed freedom of religion to everyone. In Massechusits (sp) the first thing the Puritans did after demanding religous freedom was to deny it to every other faith. Of all the other colonies...

    Rome's statements regarding: Muslim cartoons and religious freedom.

    You are, in fact, talking about history. Your orginal statement should have said, "RCC returns to its old ways". I don't think your concerned about insulting the Moslems as much as you would like to rehash old wounds. To which 'BrightCandle' replied : I don't see that 'DebiWebi' is trying...

    How do you feel about Bush?

    I think that calling anyone a hick, who has a degree from Harvard....is industrial strength denial. And as for changing America to a Theocracy...I'd have to ask how? A few prayer meetings in the White House isn't going to do it. Since, he and nearly every Republican is in love with...

    How do you feel about Bush?

    This poll should have some other choices. I mean...three choices for hatred...couldn't those three be rolled into one choice? How about...I trusted him until he made it clear that the borders will remain open and the ports will be operated by people we may not be able to trust...now I'm not sure...

    Calvinism: Why is it so unpopular on CF?

    I am new to the Christian Forum. I will go back and re-read the rules. I thought this thread was asking for the opinion of non-calvinists. When I am in the OBOB thread, we see alot of non-catholic opinion. But, I can see that I was wrong. I truly was interested in giving my honest opinion...

    Worst U.S. president in your lifetime and recollection

    I wonder if its mindless to you only because we contradict your tower of intellectual mendacity? This brings up new questions about what standards are used to determine 'Qualifications'. If they are anything like the farsical standards used in most public schools then your standards are...

    I am going to convert

    For much of my life its seems that I have been struggling with people who really, down deep, hate the Catholic Church and over time, I get tired of all the flak and having to look at my faith through the eyes of those who see it as consumate evil. Many of them are ex-catholics. But then, out of...

    Worst U.S. president in your lifetime and recollection

    I can see that there is a concept here that you have not grasped yet. The emphasis isn't on gender, the emphasis is on strength. Look at the human body. For most women...not all...but most, their upper torsos are smaller and not heavily muscled. For most men...not all...but most, the opposite is...

    Calvinism: Why is it so unpopular on CF?

    Well...uh...I'm beginning to understand the question at least. The answer must be ....."because of Calvinists"

    Calvinism: Why is it so unpopular on CF?

    Actually we are fortunate to have each other, and we never discuss religion during dinnner. We have both learned alot about each other and each others beliefs. She will probably always be Protestant and I will always be Catholic, but we can both operate within the culture of each other's faith...
