.......it is absurd how many christians think that the fact that religious broadcasting (trinity broadcasting, ect) is sent by sattelite across the world and marginal amounts of evangelism is preached, then adherents of other faiths like islam and buddhism are "accountable" for their disbelief.
i think that it is crazy how so many christians glibbly offer that "the christian message is out there for all who want to hear, and it is those follow their native religion are proactively denying christ and god"

can't we agree that the idea of your religion being false and theirs being true is seems just as absurd to you as it sounds to a muslim man? You are never gonna take the claims of islam seriously just as well as a muslim man will never take the idea of christianity being true seriously.

it's so sad how so many people can sit there and say that this is not a justifiable contention.

No. 2 Disks is on the stocks, is the serpent's eye to be red? It is a bit awkward, as there are several colours introduced in that card which do not belong to Jupiter and Capricorn, I mean the 4 element colours and they make inharmonious patches. Did you say anything about jewels on the serpent? I think you will like him. The vile lettering will have to start again, it makes me cross and ache all over.
I am longing to have a go at Mercury, but I am determined to do the Universe first. I have told the man not [to] fasten any cards in the frames, so we can look at them very carefully, it will be awful, but I must get them as nearly right as I can, tho the bother is that watercolours are the devil to alter, even if I were sure that the addition was going to fit in with the design, and altho I can redo, it is not possible to regain the memory of the emotion and one tends to produce a bad copy.

Yours ever,
Frieda

I'm Catholic and I always wondered how to say the Novena. If you could give me a website or a step-by-step method on how to pray a Novena, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Im in high school, and probably the last person anyone would think to be a Priest. I just got confirmed and have been thinking to become a Priest. Im not really smart or a really good kid or anything, Ive got a 3.2-3.3 average and havent been in trouble with the law but have made some bad decisions.

How do I become a Catholic Priest if ive gone through all of the sacraments that I could have at my age, whats the whole process, and how does someone get a job as a Priest after they have finished studying and college?

And how do I come out and tell my parents thats what I want to do? I know that might seem kind of odd, but it feels kind of awkward, Im not sure why.

Thanks a lot

I have been waiting on the Lord for a long time for something I truly need, and I just told God I have done all I can and the ball is in your court and I need Him to intervene because I dont know what to do anymore and I am at a standstill and I was wondering if any of you ever went through a time where God did not answer your prayers? What do you do when God is silent?

Just curious. I tend to believe that there is some higher power, but generally, who or what created life doesn't care if we ponder his/her/their existence, but instead follow our consciences and try to be positive. What I love about not belonging to a church anymore is that I feel free to define myself, not let a religion tell me what I should and shouldn't believe.

whether it be a group of people or a following.....who are the people that are clearly working for good, a better earth to live in.....and who are those who are corrupt, perverse, bad...and are creating more evil in the world?

if it was like a police line up, would you be able to clearly point them out distinctly?
and will the forces of good eventually win? or right now is it in the balance?

the whole God thing but its just really difficult. Infact, it gives me headaches if I think about it too much. I just want to do what is right. I dont want to be a Pascal's wager christian but one who genuinely believes. The arguments on both spectrums are so strong that its like its own battle along side with trying to understand christianity. What should I do? I once tried to really get intouch with God because christianity in itself is so overwhelming sosmetimes but that only worked for so long. Am clearly very confused..please Help!!

Many churches teach this, but the Bible says that no man can “accept” Christ because all men are spiritually dead:
We read in Ephesians 2:1 And you hath He quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins.

The problem is that the Bible declares that man is spiritually dead in sin and totally incapable of mustering up faith in himself to salvation:
And there is none that calleth upon Thy Name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of Thee:… (Isaiah 64:7)
There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. (Romans 3:11)
No man can come to Me, except the Father which hath sent Me draw him:… (John 6:44)

2007-10-07 08:57:45 · 13 answers · asked by ? 6 in Religion & Spirituality

When I was fifteen years old, I ran away from home. Now, I don't recommend this to anyone, but, I was brought up in a fine Christian home. A "Mommie Dearest" meets "American Psycho" Christian home. And there came a point in time when I realized, against my own heartfelt feelings, that if I did not leave that home, I would surely die soon. So I ran away. Now, 15 year old kids don't usually fare very well on the street, but I met a lady named Pat. She was a an elderly lady. She saw me on the street and offered to buy me lunch. I ate. She asked if I had a place. I said no. She said "come with me". I did. She gave me a free place to live, and her house was full of witches. Some hated me, because I was young and cute, some didn't acknowledge my existence, but most of them showed me a tender kindness I had never known before, and rarely since. I stayed in that house for a while, and learned the tarot, how to cast spells, how to love, but , then I started to drift. I forgot about this love.
