As a Protestant, I'd like to know upon what scriptural basis the doctrine of Immaculate Conception was formed. Also, what scriptural basis is there for the Assumption of Mary and her coronation as the Queen of Heaven?

The Bible states that a fool says in his heart there is no God. I believe we are in the end times.

History shows that during Biblical times wives were subservient to their husbands and women who refused to consumate their marriage were abandoned. Bible references in your answer would be appreciated.

Who can say it out loud? Even if you don't mean it. Do you dare?

Benedict IX Rumored to have been 12 at the time he became pope, Benedict IX was probably in his late 20's when his family's position and money put him on the papal throne in 1032. Born Theophylactus, the pope led a dissolute life, and the Roman people drove him from the city in 1044 and elected Sylvester II pope or anti-pope. Benedict regained the papacy in the following year and sold it a month later to John Gratian, who became Gregory VI. Holy Roman Emperor Henry III convoked a synod at Sutri, which deposed all three claimants and elected Clement II, who died in 1047. Benedict held Rome at the time and retained rule until July 1048, when he was ousted in favor of Damasus II. Benedict retired to a family estate and refused to appear before a synod when charged with simony in 1049. He was excommunicated; Leo IX may have lifted the ban before Benedict's death in 1055/56.

Do you feel that the events surrounding Benedicts Papacy call into question the "line of succession" among popes?

For anything.

Anger is a valid emotion - that is common knowledge... yet do we have a "right" to embrace it?
Do you feel that it is valid to act on your anger?

I can prove God to be real thru science, medical, archilogical finds, prophecy, etc, if the God of the Bible is real then He can be proved and all u have to do is study for yourself, I dont rely on just the Bible to prove it, I use the finds of man to prove it..As for all of you that think that He cant be proved that just shows me that u havent studied all there is to study, i have studied this subject for 10 years and I still find evidence to back its legality up....
