though the Catholics have gone out of their way to become more understanding and ecumenical, Protestants continue bad-mouthing them in their churches. They say Catholics worship Mary. That is not true. Worship belongs to God alone. We honor Mary as Jesus did. They say Catholics are not Christians...
Don't they know that the Catholic church is the original Christian Church, that for 1500 years there existed no other Christian community except the church? Did not Jesus promise to protect his church from error? People, even priests, bishops, etc. commit many sins because they are human. However, the church is still the church he founded. That same mass that was prayed in the catacombs in ancient Rome continues today in all the Catholic churches of the world. And without the church carefully keeping the sacred writings which later became the bible, the world would not have the bible at all.

Science supports theory that people of West African descent needed to be strong and fast to survive, while whites needed higher intelligence to survive glacial winters where foresight and planning was instrumental.. This explains the disparity of white athletes at elite levels, and the gap in test scores of all kinds in blacks.. Its important to see the world as it truly is, not as we wish it were.

I was just listening to an old Buzzcock's album and they asked this question. It seemed religious enough to me, or at least spiritual. Am I the only one old enough to remember the Buzzcocks?

In all honesty, then, is it realistic to trust in world leaders or other men to solve the problems facing mankind? Or is it more realistic to put trust in the solution to which the Bible points, namely, action by God himself through a righteous heavenly goverment?

let's think about this hypothetically for a moment as I don't want to offend

I have seen it said many times that unless a spirit confesses that Jesus Christ is lord .... then the spirit is not from God but from Satan
but what if Jesus isn't lord and spirit are just loving spirit ... nothing more
our loved ones and family are trying their hardest to come through with a nice message for us ... but are being told they are demons ?
eek ... how awful
but what if this is true ?

When I say a genuine Christian I mean a born again, blood-bought, justified, adopted into God's family Christian.

In John 10:9, Jesus says "I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture."

Notice it says I am the door (not Mary is the door), and by ME (meaning Jesus, NOT Mary), he shall be saved.

How can the Catholic church profess to be the only true church, while overlooking this scripture?

When ever I get in an argument with a LDS Mormon it is always because I am preaching against the idea that people are gods and I am preaching against adultery.

LDS Mormons have a difficult time understanding that they are just people like you and me and cannot be deities. Also, I can't find one LDS Mormon that agrees with me that adultery is wrong. They defend some of the most infamous adulterers such as Joseph "Osama" Smith and Brigham "saddam" Young (those are the nick names that my friends and I give these two adulterers).

One thing that really scares Mormons is the idea that marriage is between one man and one woman.

Mormons: Extramarital affairs are adulterous (just in case you didn't know).

I was thinking about getting a room somewhere, but them I'm worried that we may get kicked out of the room if it gets too loud etc.

This is for a small party, just about 10 guys. I don't want to rent a whole party room for that.

So what are some other places one could go to?

Private residence is out of the question too.

There are 4 of us hosting a baby shower. What is the etiquette regarding each of us giving the mother-to-be gifts? I am being told that it is etiquette for the hostesses to give 1 gift as a group. If you have a personal gift that it should not be given during the shower. Is this correct? So far, I have not been able to find protocol on this specific topic.
