    Salvation Army supports Planned Parenthood & defys Catholic morality.

    There are no shortage of people who want to start down the slippery slope to legal abortion in the Catholic Church. Perhaps one day they will find deeper faith and conversion toward Christ.

    Abortion hypothetical

    We really don't know much about when life ends. We know some signs obviously, but then we have people like father Groeschel who was dead in this way for 20 minutes, but is yet alive and quite intelligent. Perhaps what we are allowed to do is a conditional baptism. I could be mistaken.

    Abortion hypothetical

    You may never directly end the baby's life. Also, I assume we can baptize the questionably dead, but not the obviously dead. For the obviously dead we hope, that is, we have faith, that they can be granted a baptism of desire.

    Abortion is evil. Does that make the SA evil? Does that make people who support the SA evil?

    Iraq Christians bury their dead after more attacks

    The one group, anyway, the major victim, are Chaldean Eastern Catholics, and their patriarchal see is in Babylon. The pope made a by the sword comment, as part of a discourse on what religion is, not even making it pointy, and Muslims radicalized to prove the one he quoted correct, yet again...

    Cardinal Wuerl: Church has no position on gays in military

    Why should the Catholics Church make this decision? The is a terminology problem in this whole conversation. Openly gay is bantered around when we are actually just talking about allowing a kind of speech, for the most part, and even that not completely. I understand the Cardinal and am sorry...

    Abortion hypothetical

    This is exactly why that particular Catholic group or hospital had its Catholicity terminated by its bishop. They refused to recant under pressure of the bishop. It is not allowed to kill the baby, and as long as we believe it is OK, we will not find the proper, probably hormonal, medication...

    Iraq Christians bury their dead after more attacks

    Well, it seems to be the cases that this is Islam being spread by the sword. It is funny that the Crusades are defended, quite effectively and rightly, as defending at least the religious freedom of Christians, in the Holy Land. So, while the Catholic Church matures in its social doctrine...

    Salvation Army supports Planned Parenthood & defys Catholic morality.

    The UW supports abortion, at least on the national level and at many local levels, so, anything you pay in locally will assist in supporting abortion nationwide. I assume they pay up to keep the hierarchy operating, but also, having such large organizations pay PP and other abortionists as if...

    To Love and to Cherish from this day forth

    In the worst of this type many of the abusers premeditate the emotional attacks. Or fantasize. They may believe that it is their real emotion and therefore not abusive. (Thinking "Oh, I'm so mad I'm going to tell her I'm leaving... see if that makes her come around...' etc)

    Jesus Is a Liberal Democrat

    So your brothers don't have to clean up too? I bet your father does something else for you, and he probably isn't as bad as your brother... BUT I know I could be wrong.

    To Love and to Cherish from this day forth

    That's actually textbook emotional abuse, destroying the other person, either quickly or slowly over time, sometimes knowingly so. Crying is not necessarily abuse. If I hit you because I can't resist, I have still abused you, right? But yes, emotionally abusing a spouse could very well be due...

    Question for catholic freinds in jesus

    Mary is a human, yes, but 'full of grace' using a unique word, that results in one who is the Mother of God. Anyway, she is not God, but a creature. However, dead people are judged at the moment of death. They are apparently able to hear prayers and thus appeal to the Lord 'with us' or 'for...

    Homeschooling

    True, but I was just pointing out the serious flaw in the social interaction 'problem' that a lot of people are drawn into. As if these youths never had any interactions. In fact, many of them have so much more interaction with adults that they are actually better off, or so I'm told.

    Because other children are such great role models right?

    Should Single Men Put the Toilet Seat Down?

    That isn't quite fair, because women never use an all the way open toilet. It would probably be best if everyone tried to remember to completely close the toilet.

    To Love and to Cherish from this day forth

    With these types of abuse you need to start with the obvious examples. Like going nuts on your spouse for not folding dirty laundry, where, if they are real nasty, or get real upset and weepy just one time to get you to do something you see as pointless or humiliating out being forced by their...
