I think the previous Pope was a good man (I am not Catholic), I think he wished to do good, he cared about relationships with other faiths and tried to live the simple life.

But Rat_singer is the complete opposite, he wants to bring thinks back to the middle ages.

Opinions.

Didn't Christ say "A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a slave above the master"?

So between Christ and The Father, is Christ the master, or is God the Father the Slave then? I'm confused...

There can be only one answer to this: yes, it is! Simply open Corinthians, chapter 11. Read verses 3-10.
But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God. Every man praying or prophesying with his head covered, disgraces his head. But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered disgraces her head, for it is the same as if she were shaven. For if a woman is not covered, let her be shaven. But if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, let her cover her head. A man indeed ought not to cover his head, because he is the image and glory of God. But woman is the glory of man. For man was not created for woman, but woman for man. This is why the woman ought to have a sign of authority over her head, because of the angels.In other words, the passage means what it says. Have you ever wondered why Catholic nuns dress like they

Christ said, "Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and so teaches others, shall be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven" Matthew 5:19

Hasn't Paul annulled the Jewish commandment of abstaining from pork, and the necessity for circumcision?

If there was a war between the blacks and the whites, who would win? The blacks have there people in the army and have lots of street gangs and there are even some ***** police.
how could a war be fought and won against them? Is it not written in the bible that Ham is the forefather of the black man who was cursed after he made war against his brother?

The Islamic Golden Age (mid 8th to 13th C.) was influenced by such Quranic injunctions and hadith as "the ink of scientists is equal to the blood of martyr's" stressing the value of ADVANCING knowledge and individual contribution to Allah (the whole). The resulting outpouring of knowledge from scholars in the fields of science, the arts, literature, philosophy, and engineering technology - both through preserving the world's past body of knowledge and new, unique innovations - CAUSED the European Renaissance & its ideal- individual creativity as a RESPONSIBILITY which still infuses western society today.

In Islam -as in Judaism- there is no higher level of achievement than 'prophet' - WHATEVER unique gifts one receives from God/Allah, they should contribute to the whole through the process of unselfing/internal jihad/altruism. In light of CURRENT tribalism/jihadism, can Muhammad's original vision - uniting warring tribes into a movement for the greater good, EVER be reestablished?

Just wondering if other Christians are getting re-aquainted with God as a result of the terrors in today's world .

Are people talking about God more often ?

Has it caused you to self reflect ?

If not then would you please explain what you're waiting for ?

Thank you .

Why do people have difficulty reading the Bible as a whole and recognising the beauty of the different and disparant strands brought together and woven as a whole?

It seems like everyday I do something that I know is wrong and I think about it and feel guilty. Why do I have such a strong conscious? How can I forgive myself and forget about these things. I feel like a bad person.

And then we can bring our troops home?

Advocate murdering innocent people? I've heard it said that "Islam is a religion of peace", yet in virtually every part of the world there are daily acts of terror committed by people that claim to be devout muslims. These attacks are generally against innocent civilians and seem to have no purpose other than to cause chaos and misery. Why don't these people just leave the rest of the world alone and stop killing? In the latest Bin Laden tape, he accuses the U.S. of killing more muslims than anyone, but muslims kill far more muslims than everyone else put together. The U.S. and Israel are just trying to stem the tide of slaughter coming from these people.

Family is still of the utmost importance. But an ultra clean house is not. What age the grandbaby gets potty trained is irrelevant and I regret being so demanding of that childs parent. After all not many 30 something still wet pants. A home is not the structure you live in but the people and love that enter it. It's not how many fish you get it's the fun of fishing. So what if my son hates spelling--he has spell check.
