Don't you idiots know that crucifixion was the punishment du jour back then? It wasn't just reserved for Jesus.

I am a Christian. Heres a question that has been raised in conversation lately. One person baptised Catholic as a new born. (But not ever practiced it or brought to a Catholic church when younger either.) Then as an adult decides they do not believe in Catholisism(spelling?).
Do you believe that once youre baptised something you are always that.
Do you believe that one can become a different one if later in life baptised differently?
Do you believe that when you were a baby you could not choose for yourself so your parents did for you (thanks to them) but that it is up to you/your duty (if you will), as an adult make the decision for yourself.
Can you CHOOSE to be say Baptist, or Jewish if you were christened Catholic?
Also, through the eyes of God...
will that person always be a Catholic?
I am not confused ..I know what I believe, I just wanted to see what others would have said if they were part of this previous conversation I recently had.
Thanks everyone

Im going to my brother in laws wedding next month (we arent in the wedding at all) and I know that women arent supposed to wear white because it will compete with the bride. Does this just apply to dresses? I was thinking I would wear white pants and a white tank top, with a see through black long sleeve shirt...thing...over it. Is this to much white? I dont do dresses or dressing up so this was as nice as I could come up with =)

All my dreams have 3 basic features:

1- I don't exist in my dreams.
2- Things make no sense.
3- LOTS of deaths.

Is there a meaning for that? Is God going to destroy me and my family?

Is this a sign that God is going to destroy me and my entire family?

I wonder how people would react. I bet the guys stuck in the mall would be laughing. But I wonder how our goverment would take it. Thousands of Crazed Flesh eating humans roaming the streets, would the nuke us to keep the Plague in N. and S. America?

I already planed out what I am going to do just in case of a zombie invasion. I am going to go upstairs, get something to protect my self. get in a car, drive to the local Q.T. pump a full gallon of gas. Leave it leaking, light a match and blow it off and drive on the road of my life. And if I run out of gas... I screwed. What are your plans? If you dont have plans you should. Its just as important as having a fire escape route. Anything can happen when God is controlling zombies.

I HATE it when some people bring their babies and little children (age 5 and under, that is) to the movies with them? I HATE THAT!!!!!! Babies cryin' and other little children talking and making a whole bunch of noise while other people are enjoying the movie! Can't they hire a babysitter or something? If they can't afford to hire one, can't they AT LEAST find any relatives that can watch the kids while the parents go to the movies so that EVERY ONE can have a pleasant experience at the movies? BTW, I DO NOT hate children! I just hate it when they bring their kids to the movies knowing that they are going to make a bunch of noise! IT'S IRRITATING!!!!!!!!!

What should one do to be part of History? Obvisouly in a good way. Creating this sort of Neo Holocaust would be a desperate attempt to enter the History books.

we obviously don't do a lot of things in the old testament anymore like sacraficing our children, not eating certain things, so what about everything else? Why should we follow anything in the bible? And what do we follow or not follow....
