It's just the same as it was 2,000 years ago, as it is now. You can't just make up things on the spot like this. How hard is that to understand? No one is perfect. A babe before walking will first stumble and fall many times but NEVER gives up until he succeeds. Always remember, ultimately, to never follow any person's belief. Your relationship with God is between you and God. If nothing else, remember this: religion = subservience, control and conformity, the same template as EVERY government "Most believers would kill truth if truth threatened their religion." L. K. Washburn "This crime called blasphemy was invented by priests for the purpose of defending doctrines not able to take care of themselves." Robert Ingersoll "If anyone wants to know how God feels, it's a warm light as if the sun is poking through dark clouds and lifting your spirits with pure joy." |

Pondlady02 (OP) User ID: 355072 ![]() 03/10/2008 02:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I would celebrate the destruction of vactican city. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 332338Revelation talks about the "Babylon the whore" that sits on 7 hills (Rome)arrained in scarlet and purple , stained with blood of saints (beleivers in Christ). I was told Rome is the only city that sits on 7 hills. God knows, the Catholic Church has had control issues, meaning they want to control everybody or else. Lorraine Boettner wrote a great book on Roman Catholism. I freaked out when I read about some popes having children with their children. Other sold their pope title and not to mention the Inquisition and other atocities. pope innocentII (what a joke that name is) was the first to make Jews wear a Star of David, so they would be labeled. They had to convert or die. Nice legacy, huh? |

They have taken a few away also. We can eat meat on Fridays without worrying about hell or purgatory. Are they re-reading the Bible or what? Did they add some new chapters that I am missing? I just don't get that GOD has suddenly issued new orders. |

It should be noted that when people talk about the "Seven Hills" of San Francisco, they're referring to the seven original hills: Telegraph Hill, Nob Hill, Russian Hill, Rincon Hill, Mount Sutro, Twin Peaks and Mount Davidson. |

anonanon User ID: 269684 ![]() 03/10/2008 03:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | But the contraception issue has serious implications, especially in central and south America which is primarily Catholic and has rampant overpopulation which has led to kids being tossed into the streets of Rio, abject poverty throughout the region which has led to the outrageous number of Mexicans and Guatamalans headed for the USA and living here illegally. It has also led to the gross destruction of huge areas of the Amazon forests throughout all of northern South America as settlers burn the forest and still end up with land that is wonderful for a jungle but not so good for crops. The Church doesn't care how poor these people are so long as they keep them tied to the Church and keep them producing babies for the Church. It doesn't care that more than half the populations in these countries live in filth with no running water or electricity and in a state of semi-starvation unless they turn to crime and join the drug cartels. I would hope that the next Pope is a much younger man who can simply say that overpopulation is a sin against nature and that it is sinful to have children you cannot feed. That would make more sense than this. |

JimmyK User ID: 387015 ![]() 03/10/2008 03:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | All of you don't have a clue what the Catholic church is. Quoting: johnnybegood 389520you been fed lies and half truths. Greetings, That is a very broad statement. That you may have a clue as to what "All" of anyone may know or have a clue about is in fact not possible. I was raised Catholic until I read for myself. Here is one of my favorite eye openers. "But our wonder should be far greater when we find that in obedience to the words of his priests - HOC EST CORPUS MEUM - God himself descends on the altar, that he comes wherever they call him and as often as they call him, and places [pg. 27] himself in their hands, even though they should be be his enemies. And after having come, he remains, entirely at their disposal they move him as they please, from one place to another, they may, if they wish, shut him up in the tabernacle, expose him on the altar, or carry him outside the church; they may, if they choose, eat his flesh, and give him for the food of others. "Oh, how very great is their power," says St. Lawrence Justinian, speaking of priests. "A word falls from their lips and the body of Christ is there substantially formed from the matter of bread, and the Incarnate Word descended from heaven, is found really present on the table of the altar! Never did divine goodness give such power to the angels. The angels abide by the order of God, but the priests take him in their hands, distribute him to the faithful, and partake of him as food for themselves." Source: The Dignity and Duties of the Priest or Selva, by St. Alphonsus de Liguori, translated from the Italian, edited by Eugene Grimm, copyright 1927 by Very Rev. James Barron, C.SS.R, pgs. 26-27." Look it up for yourself. An evil "Priest" can COMMAND God and God must obey. Transubstantiation via the Mass having no basis in The Word of God is the invention of man. I am a christian only and have no need for the doctrines of man. Regards |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 110457 ![]() 03/10/2008 04:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Contraception is now a "deadly sin". The vatican would be better served if it added supposed "holy men", priests using their position to get children in "other positions". How disgusting! How dare the vatican tell a woman who can't feed her 2 children to have 10!!!! The vatiCAN is more like a vatiCAN'T !! They have no business telling a person to PREVENT getting pregnant. Have you ever seen a pope with a uterus??????????? I understand the no abortion issue but preventing pregnancy is sometime very wise. Many of the poorest countries have the largest population. Many poor people illegally immigrate to other countries and continue the "culture" of having HUGE families, at the expense of the invaded host country, draining said countries social services. They act like they are entitled to have MANY children while the taxpayers, who limit their offspring, keep forking out their hard earned money to underwrite their over active procreation habits. If they are poor,suffering etc. let them sneak into Rome, where that type of behavior seems to be sanctioned by the supposedly non sexually active "men" in power. Quoting: Pondlady02 355072can you substantiate this? I cannot find any news that says that the vatican upped the 7 deadly sins to 8. the vatican has long held a grudge against contraception, because it produces fewer catholics and give women free time to ... uh... think.... the 'sinfulness' of contraception pretty much depends on the diocese - for example during my preCana (catholic marriage prep) - southern NJ archdiocese of camden - we had progressive priests that advised us to use contraception b/c unwanted kids bring financial and emotional burdens that often result in broken homes, and preCana is all about giving you the tools to have a successful marriage. however, across the river, folks who went to preCana at the same time I did were under the humorless thumb of cardinal krol and were told that contraception was sinful, b/c you're having sex for pleasure not procreation. However 'sinful' is NOT the same as one of the 7 deadly sins. While I agree w/ your point of view, Please support your rant. |

We need those little catholics becasue we started loosing "worshippers" of us when people began reading the Bible and THINKING FOR THEMSELVES instead of relying on US to teach them what WE say is gospel.

Self-serving. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 378610Mormons also follow the doctrine of having as many children as possible, Afterall, God is up in heaven having sex with his many wives to produce the spirit babies necessary to take on a body of flesh that the Mormons bring into the world.

Like I tell the abortion protesters- "are you gonna adopt, raise and pay for these kids? Then DON'T tell me what to do". The vati-can just wants more slaves and alterboys for its ritual sexual abuse. After all the 'celibacy' rule came about after too many priests were marrying and having familes and NOT willing their belongings and wealth to the church. THAT is the root cause of so many of their problems but like good little deluded leaders they could NEVER admit a single mistake. How many wars have been started for 'christianity', the 'peaceful' religion? And then there is the NAZI connection from brownshirt Ratzinger to the children of NAZI supporters in charge of the USA. |
