1. One guy believes and obeys and does good to receive everlasting life in heaven
2. One guy does good and tells others about it to get the satisfaction of being considered a spiritual, concerned person.
3. One guy sees suffering and wants to help because of some self-concept that desires meaning in this life.
4. One guy sees the suffering of others and does good because of that; he doesn't perceive any reward for it and doesn't see himself as someone special who is helping others.

If you got to Christmas Eve Mass on a Sunday does it count for your Sunday Sabbath obligation or do you have to go twice? I think that if you recieve the Eucharist on the Sunday than it counts but my father thinks otherwise. Please help!!!

For the past month we have had things happening in our home that cannot be explained. Voices speaking - one of a girl singing, and a male voice that is threatening. Doors are slamming open and shut, lights are turned on and off, my daughter is terrified to sleep in her room because she says 'someone is talking to me and they talk really loud', she doesn't understand what they are saying - what really bothers me is my daughter is only 3. Dishes are banging around, shadows and a weird smell come out of nowhere - the list goes on. For some reason the male makes itself known when I am alone. I'm afriad to be at home alone, and I really want this to stop. Does anyone have any ideas as to what can be done?

By predetermining the future, prophecy seems to sap the life out of the idea of free will. If prophecy is a prediction of a plan going as it should, does that mean that the plan itself has the potential to fail (thereby allowing free will)? Alternately, if prophecy is an infallible guide to the future, is there any loophole that would allow free will?

This is not a celebration to buy and consume... this is a time for peace, love and GIVE (not material stuff necessarily) It is celebration of a, why not, " A probable miracle of love that might had occurred 2007 years ago...(Even I am not sure of what the catholic church want us to believe) But it was created and called "Christmas". It sounds an hipocresy to called it just: Holidays.. if you do not like it.. why do you celebrate? It is now just an excuse for big shopping centers??

I know that's the devils name but I want to name her Lucifer because I think it's a pretty name. It's like a cross between Lucy and Jennifer.

Does one stop believing the Adam and Eve story is literally about a couple eating a piece of fruit from a tree and actually a metaphor?

I mean, they ate from a tree called "the knowledge of good and evil." That should be a hint that it's not actually a tree they were eating from, but that they were seeking wisdom.

Sheesh!

"He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon our hearts. And in our despair, against our will, comes wisdom by the awful grace of God."
