Hello to everyone. Some of you might remember me (it has been quite a long time since I've posted here). So, I'm not sure I'm Catholic anymore. I suppose based on the things that have happened to me over the last couple years, I am quite certain of two thing: 1) I am fully and finally able to...

Hey guys. I've heard that marriage counseling/therapy with the church takes a minimum of 6 months, or that you have to wait that long prior to the ceremony. Is this, like, mandatory or can it be waived under certain circumstances or something?

Hi everyone! Some of you may remember me (though things around here have changed quite dramatically since I was previously around!). I actually return with some rather unfortunate news. I was recently diagnosed with endometrial cancer. Of course, I would appreciate all of your prayers and...

Hello. :wave: It's been a while. I hope you're all doing wonderfully! I had a question for the ladies that are married, presumably having regular marital relationship with their hubbies, and not using contraception. Do you guys ever enjoy an adult beverage? I mean, maybe that's a...

A friend was asking about this and I had never heard of it before. Did a little research and I still don't understand it. I'm mainly interested in knowing how the Catholic perspective differs (or, I suppose, is the same, but I doubt it).

My faith and my health. I get migraines. A lot. 15+ a month. Usually closer to 20-23 a month. (Praise God they've been better the past couple weeks though! :clap:) Sometimes the pain literally gets so bad I've had to go to the ER. I'm on some meds that can get rid of it when I have one...

Obama offends Catholics in the UK, says religious schools are divisive He said: I'm so excited to see how people defend this one.... (Sorry if this was posted already; didn't see it.)

Hi. I need some input from fellow Catholics that, hopefully, understand theology a bit better than I do. :) This is something I've been struggling with lately and I can't seem to find the right doctrine/theology/whatever to figure this out. I mean, something about the statement "God...

Me. Moving home sucks. Not my family. I mean, they can be annoying, but there is nothing here. The only people I still know in this area are now married (or divorced :doh:) with kids. Not exactly the folks that a single 26 year old wants to hang out with. Have any of you ever been in...

If you guys feel so inclined, could you just say a quick prayer for her?

Just took a peek in a figured I'd wish everyone a Merry Christmas! :wave: I started my new job the week of Thanksgiving, so I've been a tad busy. Admittedly, just perusing the posts around here, I can't say I miss the conversation much. Seems like the same old bickering about the same old...

Over the weekend I attended a gathering at my friend's home. She had her pastor's wife there. The woman is absolutely adorable and so warm and inviting. I've never thought much about having a pastor's wife until she mentioned something about having difficulty making plans far in advance...

Seriously. I walked in the room long enough to hear Obama try to tell women that Romney wants to deny them contraception and I was done. So what else is going on? :idea:

I don't get it. Daily it is becoming more and more clear that the Obama administration covered up and then lied about the fact that there was a terrorist attack on our embassy on 9/11. They first tried to tell us it was spontaneous and blamed some Christian preacher's video (and then the man...

So I mentioned before (quite a while ago it seems) that I had a doll that I thought might be some type of collectible but I wasn't sure. I want to get rid of her, but I have no idea how much she might be worth. So, here is a picture: I can't find any markings on her anywhere (maybe...

Just found this link. Newly revealed Coptic fragment has Jesus making reference to 'my wife' Interesting, but I hardly doubt it means he was married.

Does anyone here know anything about them? My grandma got one for me when I was younger (probably about 15 years ago now). I thought the thing was creepy so it went back to her house for a while and now it's in my parent's basement. I'd really like to sell it, but I have no idea how much it...

Hey OBOB. :wave: It's been a while. I finished the bar and now I'm looking for a job. I have an offer but it's for less than I was asking and a bunch of burdensome conditions have been placed on it. I guess I'm going to counteroffer, but I doubt he's going to take it. So, I'm sort of...

I hate to ask, but can you guys say a prayer (or two) for rain? Our family farm is desperately dry. Its been weeks since we've seen any significant rain. My dad literally gave up a couple fields because the soil was too dry either the seeds were just going to sit there or he couldn't even...

Five reasons why Protestant denominations might just go away are here. I doubt this would happen completely (because people love to argue). And lots of pastors love to tell why they're right and the guy down the road is wrong, but let's say they did all unite. What would that mean for us?
