    I'd like to find out about the EOC and how it differs from the RCC

    Where should I start? :wave: (On a side note, I find Eastern Orthodox to be really cool because you guys do share a very similar faith to Roman Catholicism. I know that you guys don't follow the pope and such, but I want to know a little more than that and I'd like to find some good EO websites...

    Why are there so many threads about the Catholic Church and what's "wrong" with it?

    ... And why are we not debating the practices of other Churches? Surely there's no way all of you can be broken off from the Church, have completely different denominations and interpretations of scripture and yet still agree with every single one of each other's practices is there? Why don't...

    Just out of curiosity...

    If the Holy Spirit leads people to the "true faith" why is it that there are so many denominations of Christianity? Could the Holy Spirit be confused, or could it be that man only thinks that he's being led into the "true faith" by the HS when really only his heart is doing so?

    How important are the 9 angelic beings to you?

    After reading up some info on the seraphs and the cherubs I must say that I am thoroughly intrigued. The very being of the seraph and the cherub as described by the Bible (Isaiah 6:2-6 and Revelation 4:7) sounds wonderful. What's even more amazing to me is how a seraph came to Isaiah and when he...

    Is Genesis to be taken literally or not?

    http://www.christianforums.com/t7502313/ Inspired by this thread. I ask here because I wonder myself. I believe that the story of creation is real and to be taken literally, but I noticed that a particular Catholic member doesn't believe in creationism as literal. So what I want to know is...

    What do you think of this documentary on the "real Jews"?

    Someone sent me this video link in an email to tell me "the truth" of who the Jews really are (he sent it to me because I'm black too, lol). To me it sounds like replacement theology and I got bored at around part 4 because it started talking about idolatry and then they were making it seem as...

    OBOB - What do you think of this poem I wrote?

    Through the flesh we have fallen Accursed in the lust of the carnal being do our hearts become rotten In a world riddled with disease and despair, we do often wonder who sits in the air For He knoweth us and hath bestoweth unto us His grace shall we accept it Sadly, by the likes of man we have...

    Why don't we say something nice about the Pope for once?

    I see a lot of negativity going around about the pope on the internet and in real life and there shouldn't be any of that (especially not amongst some "Catholics"). He's not 'evil' and he's not 'a secret illuminati servant'. So I'll start. He seems like a harmless, knowledgeable old man who I...

    Why do people smoke weed?

    This is an issue that I feel needed to be brought up (which it probably has 10 million times before on this site but I feel like saying it again) because of how popular weed is becoming. Now personally I don't do drugs or anything like that but I'm starting to notice that more of my friends and...

    Has anti-Catholic bigotry ever made you consider your faith?

    I have gone through periods where I doubted my beliefs..If God existed or not.. If he forgives sins.. Etc, the whole runaround. I've sort of shifted through periods of being certain to being agnostic to being indifferent, and it's really been quite a confusing point in my life. I guess that's...

    Do you love God more than you love your spouse or parents or children?

    This is just something I was pondering on. I know I'm not married nor do I have kids or anything, but I was wondering what do people think of this? Do you tell your spouse (or w/e) that you love God more than you love them? Or do you tell them that you love God and them equally OR the love you...

    Prayer for doing well in school

    Tomorrow I'll be going back to school and I'm going to be needing good guidance from the Lord to stay on track with my schoolwork and stay focused so that I can make it to university. Last year and all the years before I really slacked off with my schoolwork and that needs to change because...

    Douay Rheims Bible vs 1769 King James Version Bible

    Hello my Catholic brother and sisters :wave:, Today I come to you with a question. Which version of the Bible do you think I should read? The Douay Rheims or the KJV? The only version of the Bible that I have at my house is the KJV (simply because that's all my mother has ever owned) but...

    Does anyone else think the "FSM" religion has gone a bit too far?

    Personally, I find the whole idea of the 'Flying Spaghetti Monster' to be absolutely preposterous. Sure, many atheists might think the same thing of Christianity, but don't you think it's gone too far? Especially since they seem to have no problems using pictures like this to get whatever point...

    Why is there a seemingly perpetual stigma towards the Catholic Church?

    I've noticed that there are many anti-Catholic protestants out there (I know not all protestants are anti-Catholic, but some are) who truly hate Catholicism and the Catholic Church. Typical arguments I see from AC Protestants are: "Catholics aren't Christian" "Catholics worship Mary by...

    How can I reestablish my relationship with God?

    So.. Here's the deal. All (or at least, the vast majority) of my life I've been a Roman Catholic, and was raised to believe in the Bible as God's holy word given to us. As of lately, I feel as though my belief in God has sort of.. 'hit a rock' (so to speak) and I'm in a bit of a state of...
