Nope! My wife's name is Catherine and she is not a member of any forum. I do have digs at her when she calls a character on a soap opera "You lying creep!" and I tell her that St Pius wouldn't like that. She says, "Are you making fun of my religion?" and I say, "Yep!" and we have a laugh...

Very true. When we know that we are all of the same human family and are related, then we know to love one another as we love the members of own close family.

I read your post with interest, and I need to ask you a question: Are you a good person?

I think that most people who say they are atheists and agnostics say this because they want to live their lives the way it seems right for them. They don't want to be morally responsible to anyone else, especially God. So they take an atheistic or agnostic stance because it helps them avoid...

Seeing that I am retired, and that our country is in lockdown, every day has become a sabbath for me. Sometimes I lose track of what day of the week it is, so I am resting and being a couch potato every day of the week. That's what the sabbath rest is all about. Working six days and resting...

Let me respectfully give you a simple test to find out what we are saved from. This won't be a judgment on your own faith, but as a survey to clarify some aspects of the gospel. First question: Are you a good person?

My wife was brought up and educated Catholic and she would belt me over the head with the frying pan if I said anything like that to her!

The problem of racism is not just about skin colour. It is about culture and origins. In New Zealand, our indigenous Maori are now respected as "people of the land" and the treaty between Maori and European is enshrined in law. but it wasn't always the case when the British colonisers...

Ah! I didn't know that! You have witnessed a miracle! Something I didn't know! :p That sort of puts the knife into evolutionary apes to humans...

No. We are having a respectful and intelligent discussion and being dogmatic about our individual beliefs. This is what a forum is all about, and I think my friend will agree with me that we are both having fun jousting with each other. Wouldn't the forum be boring if we all just agreed with...

I have stopped referring to myself as a white person, because I'm just a lighter shade of brown, and my friend from Ghana is a darker shade of brown. So we are all brown!!!

I must be related in some way, because I love bananas, and when I was 12 my teacher called me an ape when I made a mistake! It is true, that the way some humans behave at times you would think that apes can be smarter than them! I also think that my two cats may have some human genes, because...

But there are real people who have the appearances of being Neanderthal, but are actually fully formed, intelligent people like you and me. People come in sorts of different shapes, sizes, and different shades of brown, but we are all of the same race. There is only one human race. We are all...

Jesus said to render unto God what is God's and render to Caesar what is Caesar's. This may not be the actual context, but the same principle apply. We confess our sin to the one we have sinned against, and when we have sinned against God by breaking any of the Ten Commandments, we confess it...

Every time I eat the bread and drink the wine I remember the Lord's death until He comes. That's what He and Paul told me to do.

That's great! Now some further questions. You don't have to answer them on this public forum but you can answer them in your self, and you have to be very honest about your answers, whether to me or yourself. Ready? 1. How many times have you told a lie, even a small white one? 2. How many...

When you can show me a definite and clear example of one definite animal type such as a fish changing into another animal type such as a lizard, and not mutations within the same animal or plant type, then I will believe you. But it will never happen because if the most highly qualified...

The fact remains that it will still a type of Evening Primose, and still a type of mouse, therefore mutations not evolution.

It seems so. But the sins are sins against the church or other believers and not directly against God. So, if a person is a lying, thieving, blaspheming, , dishonouring of parents, fornicating adulterer at heart then he may be able to confess to the person he lied to, stole from, his parents...

So, as I said in another post, if you implant human sperm into a female chimp you should be a able to produce an offspring that shares both chimp and human DNA - if their genetic codes are close enough for evolution to happen.
