Thank you for that truly moronic reference to 1 Tim. - which is a condemnation of the Gnostic heretics and NOT celibacy itself. The Gnostics forbade marriage for EVERYONE and considered ALL material possessions and even certain foods to be evil. Do your homework . . .

Perhaps the most idiotic thing you've said so far - based on a complete lack of knowledge of the Law and the OT. Try to post only intelligent replies and leave this noonsense at the door . . .

And all those who deny the Baptism of Christ ignorantly refer to it as a "Water Cult". You've become puffed up with yourself and have rejected God's teaching . . . Prov. 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and...

A truly moronic and typically dishonest observation. first of al - NO priest if "forced" to be celibate. They know this before entering the seminary and make this choiuce VOLUNTARILY. As to to your asinine charge that celibacy leads to pedophilia - statistics show that not only is pedophilia...

Actually - the focus is NOT sole'y "debasing" the flesh. It is a committment to prayer and sacrifice for the edification of the Body of Christ. And let's NOT forget that we are all called to DIFFERENT paths within the Body that are NO less important and useful: 1 Cor. 12:29-31 Are ALL apostles...

Nonsese. As I educated you before - you have to completely ignore the entire first THREE chapters of John's Gospel to arrive at the moronic idea that Water Baptism is a "Catholic invention". You also have to erase many Scripture verses and somehow try to pretend that the Didache (Teachings of...

We'll never know what was in John's heart - but Paul recommended mortification of the flesh as a more excellent way to serve God - just as he did celibacy.

Thanks for that hopelessly ignorant Scriptural explanation. Now, let's read what Paul wrote, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit: Col. 2:11-12 In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of flesh in the circumcision of Christ; and you...

Ahhhh - I see you went for the idiotic, modernist rendering of John 3:5 - wherein, you claim that the "Water" Jesus spoke of is actually amniotic fluid. Nicodemus was asking Jesus how to be born AGAIN - and that's exactly what Jesus was talking about - NOT natural birth. Let's take it from the...

Another idiotic response - what a surprise. Did the Jews "force" the Covenant on their babies?

I don't know how many times I have to repeat this fact - but apparently, A LOT. Children who are Baptized are raised in faith by their parents - JUST like circumcized babies were raised in faith by their parents. The OT Covenant with God was a FAMILY setting. The NEW Covenant is also a FAMILY...

I've never heard of "RCC" Doctrine. I am a Cathoic - and it is definitely Catholic Doctrine.

And YOU have a responsibility to read the Word of God and HEED what it says. John 3:5 are the words of Christ Himself, who is God. John 3:5 (KJV) Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be BORN OF WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. The fact...

Ummmmm, yes, I DID answer your qiestion with the verses I gave you. NONE of those verses spoke about the necessity of having faithg PRIOR to being Baptized - just as an 8-day-old baby didn't have to exibit faith prior to being circumcised. THAT'S why I chose those verses. in fact, theo only...

Actually - the Scriptures assure us that we as Christians are ALREADY SAVED (Rom. 5:1, 8:24, Eph. 2:5–8) This is Initial Salvation – God give us the initial grace to believe. However, because Salvation is a LIFELONG process – it also says that I am BEING SAVED (1 Cor. 1:8, 2 Cor. 2:15, 7:1...

Why do you keep regurgitating your folly? I already educated you about the fact that water is simply the means by which we are forgiven and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. I also educated you about the fact that mud was the means by which the Blind Man's eyesight was restored. Mud didn't...

It's almost like debating with a 3rd-grader. But that would be an insult to the 3rd-grader . . .

We are releaed from the MOSAIC LAW - not from the laws of God. The New Covenant is JESUS. The way wew enter into Jesus is through BAPTISM: Rom. 6: 3-4 Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with him by...

Soooooo, the Jews could raise their children in the faith - and that was okay - but Catholics can't?? Is that it? Your answers are getting more and moire idiotic . . .

What's the "Roman" Catholic Church? The only Catholic Church I know of is "The Catholic Church" - and it's made up of Roman/Latins, Melkites, Byzantines, Maronites, Coptics and about 15 other Liturgical Rites. Do your homework, dude . . .
