Why do Catholics pray to saints, many wonder

In the Catholic understanding, prayer is a "request". When we pray to those who have gone to heaven ahead of us, we are making a "request" of them. And what is that request? It is that THEY pray for US. Protestants do it all the time, but they limit themselves to making this request only of people still on earth. In this, the protestant view of the Church is very narrow. You see, Romans 8: 38-39 says: "neither death nor life... ...neither the present nor the future.. ..neither height nor depth, nor anything else.. ..will be able to separate us". The Family of God transcends death. We ALL LIVE IN CHRIST.

It is important to note that praying to saints is not a requirement of Catholics, just an option: Just as a protestant doesnt HAVE to ask a friend to pray for them, but they can

Heb 12: 22-24 says that as we approach God, Jesus and the angels, we also approach "the spirits of righteous men made perfect". In other words, THE SAINTS

I have a Ford Focus with 33 K on it. I got a letter from the dealer I bought it from asking me to come in and see if I can trade it in. The salesperson told me that the value of my old car has reduced to 8k and I bought it for 14,999 (I owe around 13K on it). He is saying I can buy a new Ford Focus with 0 miles on it and no negative equity on it along with 5 year warranty and at 12k. Do you think it is a good deal? The only thing that would be a minor issue is that I would be making a little more (20 bucks more) then what I am paying now as payments on the old car.

Example....Remove from the heat and fold in the chocolate. Cool to room temperature.

In a medium bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, and fold into the cooled custard mixture.

My question is regarding muscle gaining. I have been working out for the last year and a half, I have been trying numerous workout techniques and still little gain. I still have to put up with people's comments about how small I am. It is discouraging. I am currently 5 foot 10 inches and weigh about 140. I would appreciate any help.

I drew designs on a pair of Vans slip ons and then tried to spray it with a water proof sealer and it just made the ink bleed and smear. Is there a special marker that will stay on this material and not smear or bleed. And do I need to spray a water proof sealer on it too, if so what kind? thanks!

I think we're FINALLY getting to a point in society that it doesn't turn heads as much anymore...

although there will always be people with there ignorant beliefs... but that applies to every choice we make in life..!

I just made a batch of hardboilded eggs... when I opened them up some had gray coating on usually yellow yolk.... but not all of them. Does this mean some of the eggs were older/cooked too long/???? It tastes fine but is visually yucky to the eater. Why does this happen?

On one side I'm peaceful, compassionate, understanding, kind. The other side is a little disturbed, dark and creepy. I don't know how these two sides work together well enough.

The worst I heard was a voice message that said, "Currently, I'm unable to come to the phone right now at this moment, but if you leave your name and number after the beep....." I thought dang...she is really unavailable!! Oh, another bad one was when a news journalist on TV said that Stevie Wonder was "born blind from birth." I also like, "Could you repeat that again?" and "So, I replied/responded back..." I know English is difficult, so I never say anything, but the really bad ones DO make me smile a little. What redundancy have YOU heard?

You hear about this around the holidays, but I know of no one who has actually made it themselves. I myself am a vegetarian, and have had the textured-vegetable protein turkey loaf that you can buy in the shops, but have wondered if it is really the same thing as the tofu turkey you hear people talk about. It's really good, by the way.

Anyone ever make tofu turkey? How did you make it and how did it turn out?

Some have been asked to resign, some were fired, some jailed, and some fled. They seem to want to distance themselves from him now. Wish I had been keeping score!

Jesus did not start Christianity; it is an effigy, a hollow symbol like all religion.

A humanly conceived pretense held up while emulation of that upon which faiths are claimed remains mostly unseen in many.

Jesus was neither Christian nor accepted as Jew.

Mohammed was not Muslim, Buddha was not Buddhist or accepted by the status quo in their time either.

They stood against false idol, unkept ideal, the worshiping empty image, and sustaining of imbalance and inequity.

Things have been set in motion that cannot be stopped yet most chose this way.

We destroy Eden, this is forbidden of any form of life that is sustained.

We have roughly five years to prepare as systems, infrastructures, economies and empty beliefs collapse.

Those who remain in the rubble beyond have approximately one thousand years to prove if indeed there is any worth in our species, other then the empathy found in so few of our souls.
