I like that the Catholic Church is so huge! Like it has its own city - that's immense! Everyone has their own brick and mortar, but who has a city?!

Do you think there is something to the idea, that Evolution is an abuse of hierarchy? Like "Men" have 'status', that Evolution flaunts, in order to make character judgments of people that don't agree with men giving themselves their own place on the Tree of Nature? It sort of flaunts overreach...

You are saying we all have the same sin, that's not true!

We are taught that Heaven celebrates, when anyone comes to the faith. We do not seek, to pigeonhole. You are struggling to keep your idea of faith, alive - Jesus can help you with that. "I'll believe it, when I see it" isn't just a cop out, its a really hard way to live. Harder than anything...

Not "of" something, the end. The closest we ever get to God. The hardest we try to reach Jesus. The most power we ever give to the Holy Spirit. The most grace we ever find in Wisdom.

There is a sense, in which we need to know, whether the selection pressure we are dwelling with is working, or whether we ought to find dwelling with another one. This comes down to the unction of the Holy Spirit. Those that have the unction of the Holy Spirit will live, those without it will die!

That site contradicts itself: What is the spirit and power of Elijah, if not Elijah? As to (John) being asked "Are you Elijah?" the emphasis is on the word "are", they did not ask "were you Elijah?" As Jesus basically implied some people would find it hard to believe, saying "if you can...

Here's a quote I found interesting, in the light of Evolution: "When the same person calls you twenty times and you answer the twentieth time: all you are telling them is that twenty calls, is all it takes"

Here's a thought: similar Evolutions, reinforce the efficacy of design.

Because you keep stepping on my toes! If you put my work down to Christ, you are not honouring me or Christ. If you put my work down to the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, then you are honouring both me and the Holy Spirit. Why is that hard to understand? There is your problem, you said "we are...

The problem is that things that happen in the spirit, are relative to "time". The further from the will of God you are, the more time slows down. So the torment is eternal, at a slow slow speed, where nothing changes.

You just said exactly what I said you were saying "the works I do and Paul's are completely different" - that is disingenuous. It is the one faith, and therefore the one inspiration whatever our works. This is getting into agreement with the Holy Spirit, about what Christ "perfects". You keep...

The difficulty is that which is flesh is flesh, and a newly conceived body of flesh has that which exists in hope, but not more than spirit. Some people see the hope, others don't; some people agree with the spirit, some don't. This is why I have argued the point that those who don't see the...

This idea (of learning from angels) sits with me differently, at different times. Sometimes I feel like it is pie in the sky, other times I feel like "maybe there is more potential to this, than I thought?" There is a real problem, with focusing on "needed selection pressures" because they are...

Jesus said John the Baptist was Elijah. I think the simple proof (of reincarnation) is that we receive life, in this life, with a certain amount of instructions (that define who we are) and some of those instructions "overlap" with instructions (given) in other past lives. That's not to say we...

Faith alone: shared with others. You WERE saved, in the end (not simply before the end).

I know what you are saying, but you are crushing my soul. I want to evidence works of the new birth, and you are saying "let Christ do it" - that's a tradition of man, not God. The difference between my position and yours, is that I am tempted to believe that we could be inspired to do the...

Is there a difference between goat adaptations and sheep adaptations, that will never change? Jesus said "I will divide everything into sheep and goats" - is that an Evolutionary proclamation? Elsewhere, Jesus says "If you don't choose between hot and cold, I will vomit you out of my mouth" -...

I think the premise that is a problem is the one that says "God started with corruption" (that is, in human terms, a 'mutation'). God didn't start with corruption, He started with a vacuum. The joke goes "Man said let's 'compete at making life' and God said 'Sure, but get your own dirt'" - I...

Adapting a "tautology", requires concentrated grace. The difficulty is not that it (Evolution) is based on a tautology, it's that it claims this tautology creates variety (between species) that it does not create. You can say "its based on a gamble" all you want, but if the dice isn't...
