That's uncharitable.

Nicely put. Regarding bringing children into the equation, are you talking about the fact these ladies babysit my kids sometimes or just in general gay couples seeking to adopt a child?

You betcha! You especially gotta be on guard for those high functioning types that pass for normal and blend in with the rest of us! ;)

This is true. "Losing my religion" is a ubiquitous phrase I've heard applied in a variety of contexts.

Ok. Let me enumerate my responses in sequence rather than break up your response, ok? 1. Your anecdote about what you've heard Catholics intimate are their beliefs is not a true reflection on what the Church teaches or even what most Catholics believe. The Catholic Church is not a democracy...

Jesus was born in a time when most people didn't know their exact birthday. Sobering thought.

And that's the point. Satan becomes far greater a foe in the minds of people when it's assumed he's in control and we retreat to our tiny corners and relinquish everything else to darkness. We are the Church Militant and we don't retreat, we advance and take back what was stolen. Music doesn't...

Not to worry, my friend. I got a great defense attorney.

^^^^ This.

It's by design. The insurance industry had to be razed before single payer could be implemented. Satan is very methodical in his strategy. And yes, I just attributed Obamacare to Satan.

Well, it's a very lucid ploy to use common ground of agreement to lead people astray into speculation on when Christ will return. Harold Camping, your disguise isn't very convincing.

I usually get the opinion highlighted in the OP from gutless men who have bought into the lie that abortion is a women's issue and that opposing abortion is "anti-woman". There's really no such thing as a personal choice when it comes to the life of a human being that has not only a mother, but...

I'm still awaiting evidence that it's rolled out.

I'm glad you're honest with your homosexual friends. I've also expressed my beliefs and reservations about the lifestyle of my lesbian friends. What I'm not doing is imposing a standard upon them that I might not meet myself, the standard of perfection in my Christian walk with no shadow of...

FHII, you're claims are based on anecdotal evidence that we're supposed to accept at face value, not actual Catholic Church teaching. I think you know it's not a fair standard of proof as to what Catholics believe. None of the devout Catholics I know believe anything you're claiming, but I too...

Your explanation is appreciated, but goes further to prove my appraisal was correct. To say that those who believe that salvation can be forfeited are "anti born again Christians" is an openly hostile invective and misrepresentation of rhetorical opponents. I'm confident that I've rightly...

It's a plausible theory. We see physical defects and deformities at birth, why doesn't it make sense that even our brains are affected by the fall with distortions and disorders that God never intended?

"The church is not a building" is one of the many lectures ignorant fundamentalists inveigh to Catholics in opposition to myths about what Catholics believe. It goes with a long list that also includes, "Mary didn't die for my sins" and "I can confess my sins directly to God." The smug...

Who are the "anti-BAC's"? Assuming it stands for "born again Christian" who is suggesting that Christians are not born again? Do you have to make up things about your opponents to win an argument?
