Strangely enough, it was one of the concepts I didnt struggle with understanding or accepting when younger! I simply see it as God the Father, Son & Holy Spirit - succinct and elegantly poised phrase I feel. 3 in one. There is so much that we dont understand about the ways of...

Raised a Catholic, disappointed by the lack of guidance, looked into Buddhism, was influenced back to Christianity by an Evangelical, looked into Protestantism, found Christ along the path, then came back to Catholicism. But I believe we are Christians.

Found this on Wiki - thought it might be helpful? :)

I Correctly Accuse you of coming to this thread to be Malicious - Keep Apostle Paul out of it, you dont speak for him! :D

Once again, so well put. Let us hope that reason, respect and empathy will win the day over cutting snide remarks, obsessive, negative attention to detail and a holier than thou righteious pious approach of I Am Right, You Are Wrong! B)

Templar - very well put, fellow Christian! All that Anast has actually Exposed is his/her own short sightedness and hostility.

- The quote you chose states Argue Persuasively, but many on here dont feel you have - instead you have shifted, moved, twisted around and manipulated the thread to help assist your very strong anti-Catholic feeling. I dont feel you have been open minded at all, and have said many offensive...

Anastacia, you win the award for being the most argumentative Christian on earth! Congratulations! :lol:

Quote: Infact we still say in the creed that we "believe in one holy catholic and Apostollic church," Wow, is that right? I didnt know that - so non-Catholics say that too in the creed, how interesting. Aspen/Selene, peace and love, brother/sister - Can you tell me what Puis X is all...

Aspen quote - all people who follow the doctrine of the Trinity and accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior are part of the Body of Christ; despite the fact that a minority of my brothers and sisters do not recognize their Catholic brothers and sisters to be Christians. I agree with...

Quote Anastacia: I'm not going to stop talking about the Truth. If you don't believe the Truth now, it is important that you have heard it. Anastacia, wow, it really is as I suspected - your concept of what is true for everyone is purely based on what you believe. This makes you like a...

Quote: Anastacia, Did you argue as vociferously in Favour of Catholicism when you practised it? - Hey you didnt answer the question, is that because the answer was a resounding Yes? I m not trying to find ways to be offensive, all I am trying to point out herenis that we often change or...

I like your reasoned statements!

Anastacia, Did you argue as vociferously in Favour of Catholicism when you practised it? How would you have felt then, if every aspect of your beliefs were confronted and dissected in the manner that others have had to bear (very patiently I feel) on this thread? M We really need a bit...

Really good answer, Selene. I guess to appreciate your response one has to have some respect and value for the Early Church Tradition. It seems to me that your antagonisers have none. They set their stall up sometime approx 1500 years after Christ died, and take it from there, perhaps... I...

“Judge not, that ye be not judged - Matthew 7.1. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. Matthew 5.39. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. OR God blesses those who are humble, for they will inherit the whole earth. Matthew 5.5.

I didnt realise the level of animosity towards Catholics until I joined this forum! How saddening. I wonder if some so called Christians on this site feel more animosity towards us than to atheists? Quote: We are just going to get back to what this thread is all about - Catholics answering...

Bud/Anastacia - you cannot know the inner motives for why this thread was set up. Unless you claim divine revelation direct from God. Therefore, we have to assume that the first large comment by Aspen is Actually the Reason it was set up. To discuss and clarify Catholic doctrine. Since I...

I would like to congratulate Aspen & Selene for their not-inconsiderable patience during a very lengthy thread, in which they have been continually attacked rather than asked questions, most of the time! What a pity that some only wish to shoot down their interpretations or win points based on...

I love - he who is without sin, cast the first stone - and - do unto others as you would have done to yourself - so many of Christ s words, if applied by people in their lives, would be so effective at making this the Eden it was meant to be. In Christ, M
