Why aren't Catholics permitted to believe in polygenism? I don't believe polygenism poses any serious problem to the doctrine of Original Sin: A group of early humans are given a soul, worship God, then reject God and do their own thing, and this is the Fall of Man. How does that interfere with Original Sin in an allegorical reading of Genesis?

I don't mean to provoke anyone, and I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this. I'm still trying to understand how Muslims respect and revere Jesus as a holy man if they don't believe what is written about Him.

Please understand this in not a challenge. It is a question. Thank you.

if he could create an infinite number of universes - why wouldn't he?

wouldn't it be a waste of his powers not to?

in an infinity of universes then adam would not have eaten the fruit - and so in some universes there would be no need of jesus

I posted a question on Yahoo en espanol about people who passed away. I asked weather people prayed for them, my brother passed away 18 years ago (it will be 18 years on nov 2). and people there answered me that person is with you now and that person is taking care of you bla bla bla... They went on to say "Jesus (PBUH)said that he is taking care of you... bla bla bla". To me that just sounded weird and I just deleted the question......But I was getting that answer from most of the folks in that forum. I never read anything at all about Jesus (PBUH) saying that. My family never said anything about dead people walking around either and I grew up christian...

do you really think dead people are walking around taking care of you?

I DO NOT. Just curious to see if this is a thought in Latin America or smething, because I have not heard any christians or muslims or jews here say anything even closed to that.

whoever wrote the koran had links with Hinduism, Zorastrianism, judaism, arab paganism and Greek mytheology. was Maxim Rodinson right when he wrote his book about islam 70 years ago in which he stated,
the mosalman's book koran was copied from other sources, and Genghis khan's charactor used as mohomed , in order to out law Greek thinking from persia?

Pharmaceuticals are defined as medicines right?
Revelation in greek translations suggests pharmaceuticals are sorcery. It also states that at this(or that) time people would not turn away from them.

''for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived." -- Revelation 18:23 Is one such area
Revelation 9
,The rest of mankind that were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk. 21Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts.,


The Question is are Vitamin supplements a poison or/and drug. A pharmaceutical or 'PHARMAKEIA'.
And what else might be classed as such a thing.... Your bowl of cornflakes with fortifies vitamins.
You must understand that these vitamins are not natural, are they?
''magnesium oxide is one example''.

I ask this so i stop this sin.
Praise to God

i am an agnotic who believes only in the love and mercy of people like jesus and buddha. but let me ask you a question ok. was Abraham a man of history? theologians have proven that whatever was written about abraham (thats if he ever existed) could have been written only about 600 years after his life ended.
so how can any thinking person take the story of Abraham as a literal truth?

shortest ch Ps 117
longest ch Ps 119
ch in the center Ps 118
There are 594 ch before Ps 118 and 594 ch after Ps 118
594+594=1118 (the center of the Bible is Ps 118:8)
Does this say something about God's will for our lives?
Next time someone asks about God's perfect will for our their lives, send them to the center of His Word!
Ps 118:8 "It is better to trust in the Lord than to put trust in man"(depending on what version you read it will be something to this effect)
Isn't it nice how this worked out that God is in the center of it all?
Got a min to spare? Say a prayer for the person who typed all this up.

We all believe different things. Brought up in different societies with different views of the World. Not everyone is going to think or believe in the same thing. Does that mean that Christians, Pagans, Catholics, Islmams, Hebrews, Buddists, Wiccans or any other religious group be persucuted? Bashed? Hurt? From birth, no matter the religion we are brought up to believe we are taught to love everyone, and I do. I hate no one. There's really no point in that, it wont get you anywhere.
