He's great. IF there ever was a Pope who would call a vatican III or reform the church that would be him.

The church shouldn't violate itself in the name of science but embrace science even though its a gut punch to it. For example evolution. Which it has finally. It finally also is opening itself up to psychology and the neurosciences. When the CCC speaks of the requirements for mortal sin to be...

Science can't disprove God. Infact science one day will if anything prove His existence. The fact of the matter is does someone have to clinch to moral norms instituted arbitrarily more than 3000 yrs ago when schytzophrenics, epileptics etc were considered to be possessed by the devil? With...

From what I understand by the posts made here the reason is: - They can't marry because God says so (which is acting like a tv evangelist) and proved in Sodoma and Gomorra (which is folklore btw) - They will subvert the meaning of marriage as a sacrament (already done the wrench was tossed...

I'll redress. What's the threat of ppl with SSA getting married in civil marriages? I don't get it. MArriage is a human construct anyway. It existed before christianity and exists for people who aren't christian and don't see it as a "covenant" between God and the man + woman. Is only...

ok thanks for the advice but isn't it short for homosexuals? There was no flaming nor malice intended.

What's the threat of homos getting married in civil marriages? I don't get it. MArriage is a human construct anyway. It existed before christianity and exists for people who aren't christian and don't see it as a "covenant" between God and the man + woman. Is only christian marriage a...

In order for the church to deal with Islam it first needs to deal with its own issues which are more pressing. First inside then it can look outside.

The 2nd part ur spot on. I don't think Islam is the dominant religion but apatheism (who cares about God) is.

He's afraid that Islam will spread across Europe and become the main religion. I don't think that's gonna be the case. Why would someone leave christianity (happening in Europe) because they feel threatened in their freedom of action and then become muslim with all the legalistic sharia laws it...

Next thing you know he'll reunite orthodoxy and catholicism :blush::bow:

First of all the catholic church doesn't have a list of people in hell. Whereas it has a list of names that are in heaven - the Saints. I wouldn't be tearing myself apart for the "unsaved" that line of thinking is more from protestant fundamentalists. The catholic church doesn't have a list of...

Moloch was a semitic God which was a "rival" of the abrahamitic one. The jewish scribes "demonised" the rival god just like they later demonised pharoah inventing the Egyptian plagues. The christian "devil" was depicted following greco-roman pagan gods like the ones shown. Dante's Inferno is...

"Woman this is your son" "Son this is your mother" Jesus on the cross. Enough said.

For everyone's info I didn't write this stuff. I came across it copied and pasted it! ^_^

That's it? What about JWs?

"It's mostly Catholics that live around here. Speaking bluntly, of all the world religions (including Judaism and Islam) Catholicism is my LEAST favorite religion. The reason is because I feel that they use their media and fame to put glory onto individuals and take glory away from God Think...

Of course the universe exists. Its been proven, photographed etc. It's not a dream. Saying we have no proof of the universe is taking philosophical speculation too far in the intangible and discarding the hard evidence from physics. The next bit would be do I exist? Not even Greek philosophers...

I guess its because lutheranism/calvinism spread from within the catholic church thus still has some "catholicism" in it...

She is the Immaculate Conception no other human is. Nor did any other woman give birth to the Messiah. Hence co-redemptrix. Don't know about you but I don't fit those categories. Truth is Protestantism and Catholicism are two separate and different religions. They might have the word...
