    Was Bible Possession banned by the Catholic Church

    I recall that at one time, (some?) colleges required you to have at least 18 semester hours of philosophy to graduate with a degree in anything. (Just throwing that out there since it popped up in my mind.)

    The False Doctrine of Infant Baptism

    Let's use an analogy. Say we were wine connosieurs. We loved wine. And someone came up to you and offered you a glass of the world's best wine. Would you drink it? Of course! But! What if, right before they handed it to you, they put one tiny teaspoon of sewerage into it and mixed it...

    Arizona says will give illegal immigrants ballots for federal elections?

    John Adams, the second U.S President, said, "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

    The False Doctrine of Infant Baptism

    So, where does the buck stop? How and when do you know that your interpretation of Scripture is correct or wrong? There are literally tens of thousands of denominations, all based on some individual's personal interpretation of Scripture. Since they felt that the difference in...

    Was Bible Possession banned by the Catholic Church

    Well, in our day, it was perfectly fine to disagree about something and to debate the issues. That's how we learned. Most of us, it seems, were really seeking the truth. It's part of the natural law. We were designed, not to just seek truth, but to seek the entire truth. We were designed...

    Did Jesus sweat blood?

    Actually, a doctor did a study of the passion of Christ. If I recall correctly, he said that it is medically possible for a human to experience such mental trauma that they can actually sweat blood. The tiny vessels under the skin break and mix with the person's sweat. The skin then feels...

    Arizona says will give illegal immigrants ballots for federal elections?

    Of course they are. Makes it impossible to verify that it was a valid voter. Makes it as easy as possible to cheat.

    Arizona says will give illegal immigrants ballots for federal elections?

    Democrat Party has long abandoned any sembance of morality. The ends justify the means, any means. Any lie, deception, subterfuge, etc., is acceptable, as long as they can gain and maintain power. Just like Satan and his demons.

    Was Bible Possession banned by the Catholic Church

    You and I are old enough to remember the old days. I read your post with much interest. I find it sad that you've missed out on so much that Christ's Church has to offer. (No offense intended, please!) Most of all, the Holy Eucharist, which is the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus...

    Titanic America, America is gone insane

    I got mine from Amazon and read it on kindle (actually on my PC, since I don't want to spend the money to buy a kindle reader).

    Titanic America, America is gone insane

    From a book, "Slaying Dragons" by Charles D. Fraune (around page 10). He did research on the topic, interviewed several well-known exorcists, etc., and wrote this book.

    What can I do to change this?

    Here's a story that might help your doubt. It's by a man, Roy Shoeman, who was Jewish. He was raised by parents that escaped the Nazi Holocaust in WWII and came to this country. Roy was raised a faithful Jew through high school, went on to M.I.T. where he did well, graduated, and went to...

    What have you cooked lately?

    I just finished cooking some Venison Rice Dressing. My son is a deer hunter and I used some of the ground venison to make rice dressing. Onions, bell peppers, roux, a little seasoning, and Batsmati rice.

    Titanic America, America is gone insane

    All very predictable. This country, as well as all of the world, has been under attack for quite some time. Unknown to most people, Satan and his demons have been hard at work. Satan has five "general" demons he has assigned to undermine and destroy our society. The first is Ba'al, whose job...

    The dangers of religiosity.

    That's the theological definition of religion vs a secular definition.

    Was Bible Possession banned by the Catholic Church

    Amadeus, I'm glad you came back to God! The Mass has always had readings from Scripture. In fact, one of the criteria that the Church used to select the 27 books (out of over 300 it analyzed) that went into the New Testament, was "is it worthy of being read at Mass?" Christ founded a Church to...

    The dangers of religiosity.

    Religion is the willful subjection of oneself to the will of God. Anyone here have a problem doing that?

    Can Priests Forgive Sin?

    Only those with Apostolic Succession, and the authority contained therein, can ordain bishops. (Catholics and Orthodox) While Protestants may go through the motions and believe they do so, nothing happens. Similar to if a rogue bishop in the Catholic Church were to go through an ordination...

    The False Doctrine of Infant Baptism

    Or, better yet, maybe they never anticipated anyone questioning the baptism of infants 16 centuries later? Here's a good article on infant baptism: Infant Baptism
