Given the fairly recent Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification (1999), where Catholics now state they agree with the basic core of what Luther proclaimed:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_Declaration_on_the_Doctrine_of_Justification

http://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/pontifical_councils/chrstuni/documents/rc_pc_chrstuni_doc_31101999_cath-luth-joint-declaration_en.html

Do you (as a Catholic or as a Protestant) believe that if Martin Luther were alive today, and teaching the same exact thing he taught then...would he be excommunicated by the Roman Catholic Church?

Why or why not?

And if not...

And if the Catholic Church was the same then as it is today...would this have saved the body of Christ from being fragmented into all the denominations?

("If ifs and buts were candy and nuts, would we all have a wonderful Christmas?")

"The Inuit have always insisted the bears' demise was greatly exaggerated by scientists doing projections based on fly-over counts, but their input was usually dismissed as the ramblings of self-interested hunters"

I got an idea from the controversial Westboro Baptist Church. If I stand out side of businesses with signs such as "Thank God For Dead Soldiers" and "semper fi fags", will businesses bribe me to leave? If so, how much? I was thinking of standing outside macy's or a car dealership.

You have two 18 year old females living in the USA.

Female A has two children already. The government pays for the prenatal care, delivery, and provides female A and her kids with health insurance. Female A qualifies for welfare, food stamps, and section 8 housing. The government wants her off assistance, so they provide free day care, free job training, or pay for up to two years college tuition.

Female B makes her education a priority, works a part-time job, and avoids premarital sex. When it's time for her to go to college, she has to apply for a student loan that she has to pay back. While in college, she has to work a part-time job, and live with several room-mates so she can afford to pay for an apartment and go to school. When she gets married, she and her husband have to pay for their health insurance when they want to have children, otherwise, they are required to pay the hospital for the service.

Based on government freebies, who's strategy is best?

The ones that are originally sewn onto the tramp, holding the springs. A few have ripped off and I was wondering if there was a way to fix them. The material is FAR to thick to actually sew them back on myself. Any tips? Thanks in advance!

I mean with slavery the captor has to feed, clothe the slave. Not to mention the possibility of a revolt.

With credit card debt, the companies peacefully recieve interest money and fees with little or no risk.

The only difference is debtors let their desires trap them into debt.

A Quick Summary I'm 21 and my Fiancee is 20 we are suppose to get married next year and Found Out that I'm 7 wks pregnant! Anywayz Don't think it's too much of the hormones but I notice that he is very immature when it comes to our relationship, but when it comes to my kids I have (before being with him) and other things he's not. Example would be if you snap on him (which I do quite often, he'll do it back then justify it because i did it). Things like that gets old real quick, at times it just feels like he's another kid and that I have to hold his hand on a lot of things. I'm use to older guys, this is the first time that I'm in a relationship with a guy my age.



Please help, and Serious Replies Only!.....

“Our whole constitutional arrangements have been odd for over 800 years but they have worked” Lord Onslow, speaking on BBC Newsnight, March 7 2007.

“Gordon Brown’s reference to a written constitution at the 2006 Labour party conference gave hope that, for the first time, the British political system would finally be created on an honest and understandable basis. That is the last unfinished business of British democracy—the British people prising the political rulebook from the closed grasp of the Executive.” Graham Allen (MP for Nottingham North) Hansard, HC, col 406WH, May 22 2007.
