Some Catholics are trying to give the special title of “saint” to Pope John Paul. (The bible teaches that all Christians are "saints", but that’s another topic.)

As I understand it, Catholics teach that the Pope is an “infallible” servant of God.

So here’s my question. If the Pope is infallible, how could he not be a “saint” (and shouldn't all of the popes automatically be qualified to be given this title)? If he lacks something that would make him worthy of the title of “saint", doesn’t that shortcoming mean that he is not infallible? Please explain.

How do does evolution explain the complexity of the eye? I mean bacteria doesn't have eyes and if chemical reactions created us then how did it exist if there was no eye to search for food or scavenge around while evolving? Did the monkey just mate with a raccoon and happen to give birth to a human because it couldn't see?

Studies support the theory that the Pretrib Rapture Doctrine "appeared" sometime after 1830. Studies suggest that the theory of the "Secret Second Coming of Christ" was the brainchild of Margaret MacDonald, Prophetess, who had visions of the event, while lying ill in 1830. It is evidenced that the rapture does not actually exist in the text of the Bible. That the word "Rapture" never even appears. Also, the Greek word from which it is allegedly derived, is not mentioned in any scripture. Jesus' second coming is referred to in Matt., Rev. & Thess. as being visible & audible. The most devastating event in the history of the Earth, with lightning flashes, earthquakes, bodies being raised in the flesh (both dead & living), burning fires, airplanes & autos crashing (as the operators are "snatched up" to return "home"). It is depicted as complete & utter chaos. Not at all "secretive." I'm wondering who of u believes in this Rapture & why? What religion r u? What makes you believe this?

Why is it that everyone thinks the end times are upon us? Doesn't the Bible state that NO ONE will be able to predict it's coming? Does that mean that the end will come when we least expect it, not when we most expect it? And how have all these end times "predictors" and "interpretors" came up with all their signs? I've read Revelations, and I don't get any of these major signs from it (such as the bombing of the temple, and Russia attacking Israel, etc) Can anyone shed some intelligent light on this for me?

I need some suggestions for some new music in Spanish. I like a different mix of styles, and I don't really know how to describe what I like, so I'll just list some artists I like and don't like.

What I like: Bebe (the artist from Spain who sings "Malo", there are apparently a bunch of "Bebe"s in the music world), Ojos de Brujo, Ska-P, some Cafe Tacuba, some Molotov, Ozomatli, Si*Se, Federico Aubele, Los Aterciopelados

What I don't like: La Oreja de Van Gogh, Shakira (I like a couple of her songs, but not many, really), Juanes, reggaeton (though I do like some hip hop in Spanish), Marc Antony (and the millions of other artists that sound like him)

I asked this question in the Music section also, but I wanted to get a wide range of responses, including from people who might not frequent the Music section... if you answered it over there, go ahead and aswer this one, too, and get 2 extra points! :)

Any suggestions will help, gracias!

Is there anyone out there that believe in the Oneness of GOD. Anyone who believes that Jesus is the one true God. Do you believe in baptism in Jesus name and the infilling of the Holy Ghost (with the evidence of Speaking in Tongues ---- of course)?
