Sure you agree with it. Why should the CC or the bishop or the priest be interested in teaching the bible. Better to spend the time watching TV, visiting someone or other, and playing cards or something. Yeah.

Oh. You need to learn about original sin. You never explained why babies are baptized. Clue: One has to do with the other. Come on Mr. Professional Catholic. Give us the explanation... And while you're at it tell us WHO came up with the idea of original sin... Instead of just spewing...

ANNULLED. You do have a problem with English. I SAID that I never used the word ANNULLED. Persons that did NOT have their first marriage ANNULLED are remarried and receiving communion. And anyway, the church takes presidence over God?? Jesus said there is no divorce other than for...

Yes. Coming from the RCC I know what you're speaking of. But Jesus did say to teach and to baptize in His name. It shouldn't be viewed as something that MUST be done -- that's works salvation. It should be viewed as something that Jesus said to do. I do think we should do what He said...

You know twinc, it has been recently learned that the blood of the mother DOES NOT mingle with the blood of the fetus. Interesting. I guess the Holy Spirit forgot to advise the catholic church of this when it decided to make the Immaculate Conception a doctrine. Which means that a catholic...

I don't know. It says co-redemptrix up on my address url bar. And that's what she ALMOST is in Catholicism, so...took my best shot. I tried. BoL only argues and does very little to let anyone understand catholicism, which does hold many good teachings - but who woulda eva thought??

This is true. Books are becoming outdated. Sad. I love books and is how I learned 98% of what I know. The internet is handy for scripture. Write a couple of words and the verse comes right up to copy and paste. No more concordances!

Thumbs up. But are any of us REALLY free?????

Let me reassure all non-catholics reading along that they are NOT prepared to give any answer and this is because there is no teaching in the CC. They have barely started now but parishioners don't even understand WHY it's necessary to understand the bible...

Virtually Every... Do you know English? Please post some ECF that believed this. I can't remember reading this. It doesn't mean it's not true. But if you say EVERY it must be LITERALLY, not VIRTUALLY.

We are affected by Adam's sin. God does NOT impute others' sins to us. We are each individually responsible ONLY for our own sin. I will not waste time with scripture. This is for those reading along - I am no longer posting for YOU. Romans 4:8 is an example.

Oh boy. Remarrieds are committing adultery and should not be receiving communion, at least not until 2016 when Francis changed everything. I really have no further desire to speak with you.

K No big deal either way. I listened to the Italian version of the interview. The Pope said he agrees with the French version. The Father does not PUSH us into temptation but helps us, or gives us a hand, to get out of it. That's when he motioned to the painting of Jesus giving a hand to Peter...

That's so sweet of you, I'm sure. Why don't you learn aramaic so you could REALLY say it in the words Jesus used... They might have been Hebrew. You better learn it in Hebrew too.

Prego. And, really, you shouldn't ever need them. I use eisegesis sometimes. Persons that invent their very own meanings for verses.

BG The JW don't believe Jesus is God. So the formula would be missing: Mathew 28:19 How could it be valid??

I need $1.17 to buy E1.00 That offer is not for Italy. I ordered though from England. E34.00 Not too bad. I've had to get used to the terrible exchange rate. It was at 1.50 at some point, about 3 years ago. Oh. That USD BTW.

The baptism of a JW is not valid in a Christian church. One would have to be baptised again.

He's gone. Some come here just to get us going. But it's good practice, anyway!

The words of God have power. The bible is unlike any other book. I had never read the bible and yet I was saved while still attending the CC. It doesn't matter what church one goes to, it matters that they meet Jesus. She might really be saved if she didn't even ask you what it means. What I...
