    Peter and Paul (1981 TV movie)

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082900/ Anyone else seen this? I rented it from Netflix and though occasionally slow, and parts rather protestant (like Paul being "faith alone" versus the Judaizers) was quite good, and ended with Peter being in Rome at the end of his life and crucified upside...

    levels of teaching

    This is a quote from Ott's Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma (I did get from a site on the web I can't link to as seems schismatic, but it is from the introduction of the book and what I'd like to discuss.) Common teaching is "doctrine, which in itself belongs to the field of free opinions...

    Need some bilingual Spanish/English help

    There is a gentleman who shops at the thrift store where I volunteer. His English is not great and my Spanish is basically non-existant. Anyhow, looks like I have a lunch date with him next week - he showed me a hamburger on the cover of a recipe book and asked if I liked that (I rarely refuse...

    infant baptism, remission of sins and relation to "original sin" in Catholicism

    Can someone let me know if this gentleman's comments are in line with Orthodox thinking on the subject of reasons for infant baptism. (And I think the article as a whole was an excellent defense of infant baptism.) If they are, can you explain how these quoted aspects from the article varies...

    Who is more likely "outside" the Church, in your opinion.

    EDIT: Dave kindly added the poll options. Multiple choice so you can choose more than one item. I would like to know, from Catholics only please. Who is most likely to be "outside" the Church, and in that case to be culpable for sins that would remain unrepented and therefore damned...

    other forum suggestions

    Are there any moderate and balanced Catholic forums? Not liberal and not traditionalist. Positive. Supportive of clergy and bishops. Orthodox but not legalist. Am I dreaming to think there could be someplace like that this side of death?

    marraiges outside the Church and nullities

    Does someone have a really good explanation of the reasoning of the law on the automatic nullity given to marriages of Catholics outside the Chuch. Because it seems almost a reward to those who disobey the rules and punitive, relatively speaking, to those who do obey the rules. I know this is...
