    What are Catholic politics?

    Question about Fr James Martin

    I came across this in Twitter today after I saw the Episcopal priest here 'likes' him. I thought the RC and the Baptists were pretty much the only ones left that consider this sin. Is this going to change for catholics too? I am not a 'hate monger' as Fr Martin calls those who consider it sin...

    Why ask others to pray for you

    When I ask God, in prayer, for something I believe that He hears me. Why, then, does almost everyone beg people to pray for them in prayer chains etc. Are our prayers not enough? It almost feels like He won't answer unless I reach a quota of x number of people praying. Why is this necessary...

    Our Lady of Guadalupe?

    Just as I grow closer to thinking RCC is 'the' church for me, then I read this which pulls me back away. Also reading and seeing photos of what appears to be a real worship by Mexico of her. Why so much attention to her? yes? no? maybe? Following the Conquest in 1519–21, the Spanish destroyed...

    Are all Jews Zionists?

    I am confused on this topic. As a Christian, I have always supported Israel but recently someone told me that 'real Jews' (his term) are different than Zionists. I have read over the years that an alarming number of Israelis are aetheists. I googled the subject and found sites written by rabbis...

    Why this Christian GOP member is changing

    My background. Hard core Republican and born again Christian. Watched only Fox news. I would not associate with a Democrat because they could not possibly be a christian and obviously they were stupid, therefore I wanted nothing to do with them (not that there are many here in the Deep South)...

    Christianity now too entwined with patriotism and politics

    Many who call themselves Christians have become so absorbed in political/good causes that they have lost their fervor for saving souls. They have ended up joining forces with non-Christians who also espouse "traditional values" and in promoting a compromised "social gospel" that cannot save...

    Older Christian new to this site

    Hello to all. I am a born again Christian (does anyone still use that term?) Protestant. I have found that on Facebook everyone I know is fighting tooth and nail over the upcoming election and I admit I got fully drawn into that. However, I feel convicted that the Lord does not want me doing...
