Did you slip a ring on your wife's finger when you married her?

WRONG. The Early Church referred to Sunday as "The Lord's Day" . . . From the 1st century document, The Didache (Teachings of the Twelve Apostles), which was written while most of them were still alive: "But every LORD'S DAY gather yourselves together, and break bread, and give thanksgiving"...

When you are a Catholic in a state of grace - that is, without the stain of mortal sin.

No - it would make you a disrespectful idiot. But, I'm sure you won't be doing that any time soon . . .

YOUR problem is that you spout off without doing your homework and you get caught with BOTH feet firmly stuck in your mouth . . .

It's absolutely allowed.

A little advice for you @CoreIssue . . . DON'T do to "DuckDuckGo" for your Catholic information. Go to the Catechism, Einstein. ALWAYS go to the SOURCE . . .

So what?? Almost EVERYTHING predates America. The Early Church Catechumens' coloring Easter eggs RED goes back at least 1700 years . . .

I am an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion and I assist the priests in distributing Holy Communion EVERY Sunday under BOTH species (consecrated Host AND the Cup). Here are some photos of fellow Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion distributing the Blood of Christ. So much for your...

If you have a problem with Bunny Rabbits - then blame your parents and corporate America- not the Church. The Church didn't invent any of the silly traditions surrounding Easter like chocolate bunnies or marshmallow Peeps or Cadbury Eggs, for that matter. I gave you the origins for colored eggs...

First of all - the cup is available to the ENTIRE congregation. Secondly - unleavened bread is unleavened bread. WHO told you that it had to be "sweet" bread?? Jesus instituted the Eucharist at the PASSOVER, where they ate unleavened bread - not donuts . . . This is why I always warn you to...

I catch you in SO MANY lies it's difficult to count them all. This is yet another case where you've stuck your foot in your mouth - so, once again, I'm here to expose you . . . WHO told you that Catholics don't celebrate the Lord's Supper with the breaking of the Bread and drinking of the...

Thank you. The truth is quite painful sometimes . . .

I noticed that you couldn't even answer ONE of my questions - not ONE. This illustrates perfectly the complete hypocrisy of the Protestant heresy of Sola Scriptura. You SAY that you only adhere to what Scripture teaches - but you really don't hold to that. I showed you that the NT Church did...

First of all - I wasn't referring to the Easter Bunny. I was referring to the word "Easter". HOWEVER - the tradition of Easter eggs does NOT come from paganism - but from Christianity. During Lent in the ancient Church, the people would give up more than meat on Fridays. They abstained from...

This is a ridiculous response. Where does the Bible tell us to celebrate the birth of a child?? Where does the Bible tell us to celebrate when we graduate from college?? Where does the Bible tell us to celebrate our wedding anniversary?? By the way - the NT Church DID celebrate the Resurrection...

In post #183 - I obliterated your ridiculous argument about Jesus "forbidding" any man to be called "Father". As I pointed out to you . . . - Paul called HIMSELF a spiritual "FATHER" to the Corinthians. - BOTH Jesus and Stephen referred to "FATHER" Abraham. - Paul refers to our "FATHER"...

First of all - Jesus didn't "forbid" calling anybody "Father". He condemned the Pharisees for considering themselves Fathers and Teachers ABOVE our Father and Teacher in Heaven. - God commands us to "Honor your FATHER and mother (Exod. 20:12)." - Jesus said, “Your FATHER Abraham rejoiced at...

Like I said before - your comment above in RED says it ALL. Your uninformed opinion is what leads your actions. I rely more on evidence. The history of Christianity and its practices are evidence-based - not opinion-based. Somebody told you their opinions about Easter and paganism, so you...

First of all - your comment in RED says it ALL: It's your opinion and nothing else. I might add that it is an ignorant opinion at that, although you can't really claim ignorance since I've explained the facts to you and given you evidence to the contrary. As to your last remark in RED - you...
