Sometimes the problems of the world seem so overwhelming, and I am just one person, so I often resort to prayer. Usually I pray the Rosary. What prayer do you usually pray?

I had a dream I was sleeping on a couch bed in my grandmothers basement with my wife. It was very late at night and it was nearly pitch black (which seems like an odd dream to have in itself). I am feeling stressed and nervous and feel that something is coming after me. I know it is a demon looking for me and in my dreaming mind I call it "the Mot". We both begin to drift off. I suddenly feel a strong presence and my wife tries to get my attention. I reach for my fan to turn it off and hear the demon breathing behind us. I then wake up from the sheer terror of the dream.

So today I google search "demon" and "Mot" and find it was the name of an ancient demon of death and the underworld. The results of the search showed very few references to the name "Mot" in movies and books. I am certain I have never heard the name before. I rarely have nightmares and am not religious. Coincidence? Theories? I wish I could explain more made but the limitations have made me edit a lot already.

If your intuition guided you to give a fellow human being several
$$$, With the intuitive knowledge ,that this person needed it in order to "grow" and remove them self from a sitiuation that is no longer "needed" in their life. What would you do?
Where does "ego" take over, for you, to the point that you do not listen to your "own " . What would you do?

Several times I have read people's posts which basically say: Christians follow Jesus and Catholics follow the pope. This is so outlandishly stupid that I'm tempted to not address it. But, I will
Let me put it simply: Christians, if you could somehow go back in a time machine and meet the apostle Peter, how would you react? Would you listen to him? Would you respect the fact that he was given his apostleship by Christ himself? Can you deny that you would be at least a little excited to met this Simon Bar Jonah who Jesus renamed Peter?
Well, that's how we feel about the pope. We believe he is Peter's successor. (Here is a list: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/12272b.htm )
Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior, the Son of the Living God. The pope is a man. But, the pope occupies an office we feel was established by Christ himself (Matt: 16: 17-19) and we respect that. That's all there is to it.

Because my husband was brought up that it was "okay" to drink his hot chocolate from a spoon, he now thinks it's okay for our girls to do the same. I disagree. A cup or glass is to drink from, and a spoon is used for stirring, or eating soup or other such foods. Not a beverage.

Do you know why the Eastern Orthodox and the Catholics refer to Mary as Queen of Heaven? Consider this Old Testament verse:
1 Kings 2:19 "When Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah, the king stood up to meet her, bowed down to her and sat down on his throne. He had a throne brought for the king's mother, and she sat down at his right hand..."

In Hebrew and other Middle Eastern culture of the time, the mother of the king was always considered the queen. The word for this was "Gabira", or "queen mother".
Now, Jesus is from the line of David, and among other things, is a king: In fact, he is the King of kings. It would be normal for any Jew, therefore, to consider his mother the queen.

This is totally biblical (if you understand biblical 'typology"), and is also culturaly correct. It is a failing of protestasnts that they read the Bible through American eyes and not eyes of first century Jews, otherwise they would see many of the things we Catholics see.

Read slowly and carefully... The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility.
As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".
In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy.
The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.
There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.
In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible ==>( more)

I know that Fundamentalists do not like to be bothered with actual "facts", but every once in a while I have to throw a few out there when I see posts full of errors.

Here is what the church teaches regarding grace, justification, and works:

CCC 1996: "Our justification comes from the grace of God. Grace is favor, the free and undeserved help that God gives us..."

CCC 2010: "Since the initiative belongs to God in the order of grace, no one can merit the initial grace of forgiveness and justification..."

CCC 1992: "Justification has been merited for us by the Passion of Christ who offered himself on the cross as a living victim, holy and pleasing to God, and whose blood has become the instrument of atonement for the sins of all men."

If a man has to lift the toilet seat, why shouldn't women have to lower it? Why should the man have to lift AND lower the seat? Isn't equality what we all want?
