But you are fooling yourself if you believe military members don't talk about it amongst themselves. i never said they didn't. but i hear and hear of differnt conversations than you i guess. If you believe le
In case you have not noticed, the CC is one of the strongest political/religious/financial organizations in the world. they sure are. and they are every bit as corrupt as the temple that christ tore down. Believe
Sorry, Christ never said, “Blessed is the man who thinks for himself, for of such is the kingdom of Heaven.” Nor did He say, “Come to me all you intellectual people and free thinkers and I will refresh you.” If Christ has done the thinking for us on a given subject, all one has to do is to accept His teaching. How will you find it? Well, I’ll tell you that He left an authorized Church. Use sound reasoning to discern this Church, and then reasonably
Some of the other bloggers mentioned that it was lame, so I knocked it off. they were just stumped...anyway, don't blog by polls, lol
If we left today, we'd be right back in there in a few years. The country would fall into chaos, then terrorists would be back to training and living there because WHO could stop them? And it would be a hundred times worse. sounds like the bogus domino theory part II to me...that is pure speculation based on no evidence or precident whatsoever. <
You say its a no win situation. Some politicians and news agencies say its a no win situation. So "we" the American public believe it. no, that's not accurate and is a shallow, flip way to put it. there were many of us, including 21 senators that did not buy into the "mushroom cloud" scare tactics before the invasion. there were those of us who r
There is NO such thing as the War on Terror. Terror is a tactic in war. We are in a war with factions of the Moslems all over the world. What we have done in Iraq and how we have allowed the Israeli/Palestine issue to fester, how we allowed Lebanon to be destroyed over two Israeli soldiers being captured and our presence in the Middle East to protect access to oil are what
btw xythe,,,i miss your "who is clever enough" posts.
simply do not accept the Saints as the CC does no, i don't accept them as anything other than people who lived on earth, just like you and me. if the church merely wanted to use them as examples and role models, i would have no problem with it. but they don't. they build statues (idols) and have prayers that at least to me, sound like direct worship. having "feast days" to the saints also come off to me as a form of reverence and worshi
thanks for the comments:)
i was having a related topic discussion with a coleague the other day.... i pointed out that when someone is not a participant in any hobby, that the money and time people spend on the hobby (esp the money) is baffling to them. think about it, if you are into videogames, for exxample...the 600 for a ps3 and 60-70 bucks a new game are probably a much fairer price to you than to the guy who doen't play. it may be a lil pricy to you if you are on a tight budget, but the cost vs. the benefi
after all this,,,i still hold my orig. premise that catholics do indeed pray to and worship the people they have deemed as "saints" and jesus's mother, mary. i have yet to see one thing to convince me otherwise. by the way,,,some backround on me...i did 4 years of catholic grade school, went to a catholic university (duquesne, run by the holy ghost fathers of which i was "recruited" personally ). i missed my confirmation in the 8th grade and
thanks for sharing xythe....i gave ya an insightful bump for that. as a parent of a 7 year old, i can relate. one question,,,how do you get the utube video directly in your article?
The White House won't admit it, but it is a civil war in Iraq. Despite the administration's rhetoric and whining about everybody but them being "politically motivated and biased" the facts are now clear. the Iraq War meets the technical definition of Civil War. And there is no denying it at this point. How is Civil War defined? Well, if you look it up, it
Here's a good example of the American media bubble at work, guess which cover we get? i saw that story,,amazing
wow,,,go away for a few days and come back to this...interesting comments and thank you to all for them...probably gonna take me a lil while to catch up and respond, either here or with another article to further explain my position. How do you know the bible you read is accurate? Is it faith in man or faith in God? I trust God. I don't trust man. of everything i've read thus far,,,this sums up a lot of what i feel. excellent
full article here...[link="http://www.catholicconcerns.com/MaryWorship.html"]WWW Link">Link Pope Benedict XV said of Mary that "[O]ne can justly say that with Christ, she herself redeemed mankind." (Note 10) Pope Pius IX said: "Our salvation is based upon the holy Virgin... so that if there is any hope and spiritual healing for us we receive it solely and uniquely from her." One popular prayer in Mary’s honor is the "Hail Ho
YOu have to admit that K.O. has ratcheted up his rhetoric of late, though keith is keith. he's a social liberal, but i wouldn't call him an all around one. his rhetoric is sharp, but he doesn't lie and make things up. and when he is in error, he is usually pretty good about it. my biggest beef with his show is the time he wast
The 3 biggest racists in America why are they the "3 biggest racists?" there are many who have said bad things concerning race. aren't the worst racists the ones who actually act upon it every day?
very funny
happy birthday to ya'll!!!!
regardless of fault, richard's career is pretty much over...except maybe doing "d list" stuff like the surreal life or the biggest loser if he gains enough weight.
I've been here for about 2-3 weeks, and yeah you're right about that. We're on post 148 of her stellar "Why Islam isn't a religion of Peace." Still waiting for a rebuttal with some facts. yeah, i know that pattern well too...she gets real quiet when the facts come out to play. she's much better at running up her own score for no good reason.
and btw,,,i released the b.l. on ya a while ago when we were both commenting on the post with the kool-aid swallowin christians. i didn't think it fair to exclude you when we were commenting on the same posts defending sim. things.
i understand what you are saying baker, but bush only made the comments last week, so "jumping on him" before that before the comments were made would be kinda impossible.
