I think Christianity would benefit from speaking out, because it does involve virtually all denominations.
Unfortunately, I don't think very many Christians -- let alone denominations -- share my sentiment that "creation science" is a tool of the Devil.

The Catholic church tells everyone they are in the business of saving souls not lives, if you are dying of starvation and you are a good Catholic then the Catholic church has done a good job as far they are concerned.
Do you know any instances where this was the case?
No not one, I'm sure there are no Catholics starving to death anywhere in the world.

I think you're overlooking something.

Mother Teresa, when she died, had assets in the millions of dollars.

So why didn't she use that money to alleviate the suffers?

Simple.

According to one of her nurses, she would administer aspirin to cancer suffers to help alleviate their pain.

According to her, the more a person suffers on earth, the greater their reward would be in Heaven.

People like to think Mother Teresa was some kind of supersaint; when, in fact, she was far from it.

Nevertheless, you comment concerning Catholics not caring about people starving in 3rd world countries is false. There are numerous Catholic missions, as there are of virtually all mainstream Christian denominations.

As I understand it, they do care -- about their souls.

Not their bodies.

Hovind is a con artist and a fraud, operating under the banner of "Christianity". You should be ashamed of yourselves for even associating with, let alone supporting this clown.


.

i'm sorry you feel that way my friend.

Peace.

That is not the Catholic church doing that those are Catholics doing that, the church takes all the money and the believers do all the work and give the credit to the church.

Do you think Hovind stands for honesty?

Do you think Hovind misrepresents science?

I've seen no reason to believe that he doesn't stand for honesty nor any reason to believe that he misrepresents science.

Thank you kindly.

Thank you kindly.
