we call christians who branched out directly from the catholic church as protestants and we hold them dear to our hearts. we refer christians who do not branch out from the catholic chruch as ecclesial communities, whom also play an important role in salvation.

we give all of you good names, we refer all of you as in oneness with us in spreading the Word of God and this is how you guys treat us back.

Those that don't know the virtues:

There are three principles, Truth, Love and Courage.

Honesty is respect for Truth

Compassion is Love of others

Valor is Courage to stand up against risks

Justice is Truth, tempered by Love

Sacrifice is Courage to give oneself in name of Love

Honor is Courage to seek and uphold the Truth

Spirituality is to seek Truth, Love and Courage from one's own self and the world around

Humility is the opposite of Pride - the absence of Truth, Love or Courage

I keep getting the unshakeable feeling that something really big is going on in R&S, but I really can't place it.

I think there's a question already going that relates to it. Just see if I can get a link going...

that the CHRISTIANS are afraid there is no god, and their life is a lie...
and the ATHEISTS are secretly afraid there is a God, and theyre missing out on eternal life.

I would say that this is probably not a conscious fear in us, but everybody has doubts, even those who have blinded themselves so fiercely and won't even question their belief, do this to overcompensate for those doubts.

So looking objectively, do you think this could be true?

(and dont just say 'god exists/doesn't 100%' because you don't know and I know you are telling porkies)

why cant atheist's just live their Godless lives and leave the Christians to live their lives without slamming them for believing in God.

And if so, is it purely for health and wellbeing, or for political and social reasons as well? What made you decide to do so, if you did at all, and if you still eat meat, what informs that decision?

list a whole diatribe on the framing of a question. Was the question fragmented?, did he mispell? heaven forbid misspelling. It is almost as if people have the need to elevate themselves by putting others down. if this is true, then have fun

Sadly there's still a lot of ignorant prejudice and discrimination against the mentally ill in today's society.
My dad suffered from bipolar disorder, and because of that he faced a lot discrimination throughout his life due to the stigma of mental illness. I myself was diagnosed with PTSD when I was a kid, but because how mental illness is portrayed in the media, people still fear it.
The funny thing is, racist discrimination has been successfully fought against, the same with sexist, homophobic, classist, colorist, elitist etc... But what about psychophobia?

Why do so many people assume Muslim women are oppressed because they wear the Islamic Veil (Hijaab)?

If a Catholic Nun chooses to wear a habit, she is considered pious and devoting herself to God.... but a Muslim woman chooses to wear hijaab and she is considered oppressed.

Why?

The Virgin Mary wore a veil, reverred in both Christianity and Islam as a most pious woman, yet she was not oppressed. But if a Muslim woman chooses to wear hijaab, she is considered oppressed.

Why?

Serious answers only please.
