    Memorial Day Greeting

    No everyone seems supportive of this idea: Chris Hayes: I'm 'Uncomfortable' Calling Fallen Military 'Heroes' Effete: affected, overrefined, and ineffectual; see "Chris Hayes." OK, I appended the name of the MSNBC host to the dictionary definition. But if ever you wanted to see the human...

    There is no eternal punishment!

    "Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:" - Matt. 25:41 In my time on this site I have heard multiple opinions as to what happens next. The most popular have been: 1. They spent all eternity...

    Christian Doctor Performs Abortions

    I really don't know what to make of this. He calls himself a Christian, but doesn't explain what his specific definition of a Christian is. The U.S. filled with millions of people who call themselves Christians, yet are that in name only. Obviously just because someone calls themself a...

    Sodomites: Haters of God

    -- No, but - apparently unlike you - I am employed and do have the entire day to pound out a lengthy self-indulgent posts, let alone criticize those who don't want to waste their time reading them. Thanks for your input, though.

    Sodomites: Haters of God

    Do you happen to have a Reader's Digest Condensed Version of what you posted? If not, I am afraid I have to pass.

    Grief

    I have never been a big fan of recommending songs to people. DIfferent tastes, different genres, etc. But Aspen, without reservation I would recommend this song for you. For anyone, but especially for you right now. It is called "Cry Out To Jesus" by Third Day. Many Christians groups put out...

    Judgement ?

    Aspen, I understand your firm faith in liberal politics and policies, but your propaganda doesn't stand up well in the light. -- Not quite. Rich who do not use part of their riches to help the poor - as Christ has directed - have "already received their reward." Many rich give to the poor...

    Joel Osteen Reality Show

    I don't want to be a member of the "Jump on Joel" band wagon, but I would point out two things: In all the preaching I have ever seen him do (and I used to watch him religiously, no pun intended) and in all the daily emails I received from his ministry, I have never heard him speak about the...

    Obama On Same Sex Marriages

    -- Oh, I agree that he has done a lot. The problem is, very little of it is good. I do find it laughable that you call it leadership. You don't set the bar low. You lay it in the dirt. Not just America but even the rest of the world sees him as a failure. The term used was 'Global...

    Obama On Same Sex Marriages

    -- LOL No, he does not keep his positions consistently. Candidate Obama promised Gitmo would be closed before the end of his first term President Obama still has not closed it even after almost four years Candidate Obama promised to end the Bush Tax Cuts within the first year President Obama...

    Unrenerate Israel and Christians

    -- Yeah, that's about as far as you need to read.

    Obama On Same Sex Marriages

    They say that Mr. Obama's opinion on this has "evolved." If there was an 'R' after his name they would say he "flip-flopped." As CNN reported: 1998 - Supported gay marraige 2000 - Stated he was 'undecided' 2004 - Opposed gay marraige 2008 - Opposed gay marraige 2012 - Supports gay marraige...

    Nationalism As A Religion

    -- Yup, just use the right bait. By the nature and wording of your initial post I suspected you are a person who makes blanket accusations, painting EVERYONE within a specific group with the same brush, not taking into account any option for individual opinions or motivations.....unless they...

    Priest denies communion to lesbian at mother's funeral

    Spent most of my childhood into early adulthood being forced to go to confession once a week and being told I was forgiven for sins that I either made up since I couldn't think of anything to say, or wasn't really sorry for because I didn't truly consider it a sin. The priest said "Go your...

    Nationalism As A Religion

    You are Not a nationalistic patriotic zealot just because you: - Believe that God had a hand in creation of this country and has helped guide it in the past. - Ask God for His will to be done for this nation. - Pray that God will influence the will of individual politicians. - Oppose laws...

    Can You Lose Your Salvation ?

    -- There are so many things wrong with the assumptions made in this statement that it is difficult to know where to begin. You do not NEED to confess your sins to a priest in order to receive forgivenss. Jesus Himself said so when He told us how to pray DIRECTLY to God the Father. "Forgive us...

    Priest denies communion to lesbian at mother's funeral

    -- Trust me, Aspen, you are appreciated, as well. This board can get rather dry when I don't have the chance to interact with you. I am very glad you're back. Honestly. To be candid, I wasn't thinking about her as a homosexual. I was thinking about her as a Buddhist. Just because you are a...

    Priest denies communion to lesbian at mother's funeral

    -- What good is it to give a person who doesn't believe in God what the Catholics believe is the ACTUAL body and blood of Christ if that person doesn't for a second believe in God, let alone what Catholics claim the wafer actually is? Christ's "pearls before swine" comment comes to mind: “Do...

    So sad

    -- My heart goes out to you, Aspen. Truly. As far as prayer goes, when I dealt with a severe time of sadness and depression in my life, I thought that if I just wore the carpet out with my knees talking to God, that things would improve noticably by the time I stopped. No such luck. I did...
