After Jesus was filled with the Spirit he went to the desert to be tempted. One temptation was to be given power over all the kingdoms of the world if he would worship the devil. He refused. Did Bush?

Assume that you are forced under duress to join a religion you don't really believe in, and then you die. After death, you find out that the religion you were forced to join was actually correct, and only those who are members of it may enter paradise. As a member of the religion, would you be let in, or would you be rejected because you were not an honest convert?

Learning everything about evolution is like getting a Phd. Creationism can be taught in one hour. I would say creationism takes more faith because there is less evidence for it.

I seem to remember a NT passage in which Jesus stated that there is no need to swear an oath, because a person should be true to their word at all times. Doesn't that make the practice of swearing on a Bible for court or government appointment kind of silly?

This disturbs me so much! Its no wonder skeptics will look at us and brush us off. We act as hypocrites. Jesus said to "love your enemies", and what does the "christian" nation of america do (which has a "christian" president)? Bomb countries. Who are we to take the life of others?

And all this propaganda of pro-israel garbage. The whole idea that we must support Israel no matter what it does because they are God's people. When Israel was destroying lebanon, did God approve? I don't think so, and if you do, then you worship a god of war, not love! Come on christians, its time to change our actions and attitudes.....WE are the ones that make the skeptics all the more skeptical.

Since fundamentalists accuse Catholics of worshiping our popes, why hasn't the Catholic Church *canonized all of our popes?

*To canonize means when the Church uses the keys to formally declare a person to be a saint.

19: I [Jesus] will give you [Peter] the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven."
-Matthew 16

18: Truly, I [Jesus] say to you [the Apostles and their successors in the Church], whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
--Matthew 18

John Paul II would have been officially declared to be a saint on the day of his death if we worshipped our popes, but his case is still in the process.

There were times in my life that I was so driven toward edge, all I could think about was suicide. Fortunately I am still alive but it has been painful experiences.
I often wonder why life has to be so hard like this. If I could just lead ordinary, happy life like normal people, I would be content without rich and fame.
But there are so many things going wrong in my life such as severe depression and lust problem. They hampered my life so much despite my efforts.
I know everyone has problems. But I only wish my problems were manageable and not so debilitating. I also wonder why God even put me in this world to go through terrible pains like this in the first place.
I hope somehow God talks to me to put an end to this painful suffering called "life."
Everyday is too painful to get by when you even get verbally abused by ur own parents.
Why did God put me in this world in the first place if life is to be this unbearable? I am lost at understanding God's intentions for me.

God is offering you everything, and forever to do it. Some say they would become bored living forever, but I for one can't understand this way of thinking. We will have a perfect body, and a perfect mind. Can you imagine what awaits you?, Will we be able to travel the universe? Think for a moment, if you live to be 150 years old, what is that compared to Billions upon Billions of years?

In the Bible, the book of James says in 4:14 "Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow, For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away"

I am not asking you to join a church, or give anything. I just want you to think about your future, where will you spend it? This is one of the most important questions you will ever have to ask yourself, so I wouldn't take it lightly. How much time have you spent reading the Bible? Are you 100% sure you have all the answers? Will you be a follower, or make up your own mind?

I look at it this way. If December 25 was known as a pagan holiday, in ancient times, then so be it. Later on in history, the Pope, and other Christian leaders, decided to celebrate Jesus' birthday on that day. If they had picked a different day, no doubt the crybabies out there would be saying that day was a pagan holiday, too
.
Over 1 billion people celebrate Christmas around the world on Dec. 25th as it being Christ's birthday. We don't celebrate it as a pagan holiday. We gather with family, and reflect on what The Savior's birth means to us. Also, we reflect on what his death meant, too. It means for our salvation, he was born, and he died! Our eternal lives depended on him, and he paid our debt, IN FULL!

So to all my Christian brothers and sisters, remember that! Christ = Savior, and Mass = lots of family and friends gathering around, celebrating our Christmas gifts that God gave us! The gifts of love, hope, peace and eternal life

If he'd said something like "better than" Jesus", I would understand somewhat, but since when did "popularity" translate to one's value as a human being? Was Jesus really that concerned with where he stands in the hierarchy, like some kind of stereotypical high school jock? That incident make even less sense to me than the whole "Muhammad cartoon" thing, which at least has some basis in tradition and scripture...
