God demands nothing of men that is mens doing. All that meeting and all we have is corruption of the truth and confusion, of which God is not teh author. God cannot be a part of something that is not of Him.

This entire thread is testament to the false idea that if you aren't BoLs image of a Catholic, you may be a liar, a dissent, not part of the Jesus's only church, blah, blah, blah

Save yourself the bother

Doesn't BoL at least attempt to teach the correct dogmas, etc. about the Catholic Church? Has he been wrong about Catholic teaching?

I can't tell. His posts are so full of hatred, it is hard to see any teaching. He seems to only react.

Do you know the girl and her family? You really say some silly things at times.

Nope. I don't know the Pope either. If you can find any comments by the family, feel free to share

How about telling us how one can become the pope?

Sure. First, Cardinals are summoned to Rome. Popes are chosen by the College of Cardinals, the Church's most senior officials, who are appointed by the Pope and usually ordained bishops. They are summoned to a meeting at the Vatican which is followed by the Papal election - or Conclave.

Okay! I'll ask a question: Almost anyone that has read or studied the Bible knows the answer to the little girls question, SO why, with someone that is supposed to be so far up the ladder of clerical knowledge unable to answer this simple question.
Hi M
I see we're both new here.
I was wondering what YOU would have answered.

When I first became born again I thought I knew the answer to the girl's question, which is, basically, why does evil exist?

The more I studied, the more I realized that we can't know the answer.
So it would SEEM that the Pope did not give her the correct answer, when actually, he did.

My opinion.

Where is the wisdom in not being able to answer a child’s question.
well, you say "not being able to answer," but in that venue how might you answer a small child who asked you "why the world is attacking children so much" if you were the pope? Imo children naturally assume adults know everything, and his reply strikes me as cognizant of that, whereas i prolly would have given her some thoughtful reply that would make no sense whatsoever to her. Let's hear yours then.

what would a kid even mean by "the world attacking children?"

when did I do that?
I never quote the pope
I have no idea what he says
I can hardly keep track of what I say
Amadeus is right - it was Marakorpa who made the phony comments about the Pope.
My mistake - a thousand pardons . . .

Wrong.
I acknowledged my error with Rollo in post #2155.

He hasn't lied - like YOU have . . .

If any of you had bothered to actually research the incident - you would see that he DID answer her question in a 40-minute discourse.

This is the problem with anti-Catholics. It's not so much ignorance as it is a complete willingness to perpetuate falsehoods. In other words - you guys are voluntarily ignorant when it's convenient.

Try doing your homework and telling the truth for a change . . .

Sorry.
I don't know how to use this forum really well yet.

I'd like to ask Marakorpa a question:
Because of this:

Marakorpa said:

Can't go back now, but the question was why children get sick or die or something like that.
The real question is: Why is there evil in the world?

I can only assume that MARAKORPA has read the bible, so...

MARAKORPA

WHY IS THERE EVIL IN THE WORLD?

Thanks for the answer...
