Well, the UN and the Vatican are trying to get him released as well as the Indian government. But the militants in Saudi are a powerful group, some with ties to the royal family. Laws are ignored... I will pray for all yor requests and all of you …

I am personally not a big supporter of "Focus on the Family" because the person in charge, Dr. James Dobson, is a fundamentalist evagelical protestant... He is openly a bush supporter. He is also privately anti-Catholic/Orthodox.

I believe that evolution theory is plausible, but that God ordered that process. Again it is a theory among many... but Creationism, like the fundamentalist protestants believe, in my opinion is unlikely...

i don't think we must take Genesis literally... we could, but I think we can reconcile our faith with science. Here is why: God created day and night, but not first. So... as the Bible says, A thousand years in our sight is like an evening for Go…

I think we are generalizing a little too much. I have very good Muslim friends who don't want to kill me. They are wonderful people, and they are Muslim. There are extremists in every religion, look at Christianity's version of crazy - David Kore…

I can think of some dances that Glorify God. Ballet, Wedding Dances, etc...

Its incorrect to say "if it wasn't for the Jews..." If it wasn't for OURSELVES... Christ didn't die because of the Jews alone, He died because of US. God is outside of time and space, therefore our fighting, cheating, sinning, if not in the past o…

Ali was a genius, he knew that to get $ he had to act out in front of the camera. Tyson on the other hand is nuts, he's not acting. They actually take him off medication when he's fighting so hes more fierce. Are you guys forgetting he almost ate…

There is also that thought that God blesses those who act. We shouldn't expect God to provide a perfect spouse if you refuse every offer that comes your way. I think within marriage, happiness isn't a freebie. You have to work on it, and pray tog…

Please... don't be the next Tyson, be the next Ali... Tyson's a lunatic...

I am not saying the death penalty cannot be used. All I am saying is since we have a viable alternative, life in prison, we should use that. The death penalty is acceptable in countries where there is no other method of punishment that could be pr…

i agree that both can be difficult, but what about competitive cheerleading, not the sports sideline stuff...? thats the same as bodybuilding...
-
personally, on this one, I would just let it die out. This may bring more publicity to the movie than needed. I really didn't want to watch the movie, but everyones comment is making me want to watch it to see what's wrong with it. Not that I wil…

How about NuminousCatholic

Thank you and God Bless all of you who are praying for my friend, I know God hears your faith because he is healing from his first operation well. Please continue your wonderful act of charity. I was reading some news online and I found this: SAUD…

The movie is sucking anyway as far as I can tell... I know 1 person that saw it... let it disappear What I want to see is M. Night Shamylan's The Village and Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11

All of us were sin-less for one moment... at our baptism ;D
-
Well, cheerleading takes a lot of athleticism... so it is equal to bodybuilding. Again, I don't want my daughter doing it... then again, I don't want my son doin the skimpy speedo bodybuilding thing either. They're the same. Don't have double sta…

in the United States, it costs more to execute someone than to keep them in jail for life. Why? because the person is entitled to many appeals to try to get out of dying. Without these appeals, many more people will be wrongly executed ( there are…

I was talking about another post SMS, i think Michael deleted it.

i guess, if its a bodybuilding competition... i dunno, i find it kinda disgusting...
-
Do you all think that it would be sinful if a man who is in good physical shape, walks around without a shirt on, or wears "revealing" clothes? I think its the same thing
-
no.. but hey why are you fighting? You have to realize that once you are ordained, you are in the spotlight. Don't let anyone say that your ordination was a mistake. When you accept that responsibility, you are carrying the image of the Church, d…
-
I think that verse has to do with intent. If someone is doing Good to be Christ-like, God rewards. If one intents to do Good deeds so other people will think they are great, then they have recieved their reward, adulation by others. In the case …

I think the term "skimpy" clothes, is again based on culture. I am not defending the lack of clothing in our society. What I am saying is that nudity in some cultures is not sinful. In some parts of Africa, the tribes normally wear a one piece bo…

Here is a file from the Coptic Church in the Southern US, here we see that the Eucharistic belief in the Roman Catholic Church and Coptic Church are exactly the same, but administration is different. Note: The Coptic Catholic and Eastern Catholic a…

SMS, I am praying for your friend especially, as well as everyone's who has asked. An update on my friend, they discovered another tumor on his spine, he will have to undergo radiation and possibly chemo. Please keep him in your prayers. His reco…

The temporal (earthly) punishment do to sin and the spiritual punishment are 2 separate issues. Although I oppose the death penalty, the real murder will pay an eternal price whether the temporal authorities properly found justice or not. This is …

in which country? it couldn't have been in the US, because the only thing that talks here is $$$

each circumstance determines if dating is right or wrong, in my case it is alright 8)
