And be ready when Jesus comes back and takes me home?
Are you ready for when the King of Kings returns to take you home?

(A) all the ends of the earth!
For I am God, and there is no other.

very good reason why catholics were asked to eat fish on a friday. Food was in very short supply during both WW1 and WW2, so the Pope asked all catholics to eat fish on a friday. Thus leaving more meat for the men at the front, the meat was canned and called bully beef,do you agree it was a great idea.

Christians are right and tell only the truth! We go by God's word and live by His law's. We have nothing to loose. A person thats lost does there soul. Jesus is the Savior and soon comeing King! He is comeing back and people need to be ready at anytime! You never know when He will come back. Only God knows that. Have faith and believe. That's the proof and all living things God created is proof too. God is the reason we are even here. He created us. Jesus is the Almighty! Our Savior lives!! Praise Jesus for all His blessings! What a friend we have in Jesus. Jesus gives life! Holy Holy is the Lamb! Accept Jesus before it's too late for you! Jesus loves you! Praying for all the lost souls out there!

Thanks to horrible rantings including people saying my best friend will go to hell because he is loving and an Atheist. I'M LEAVING YOUR RELIGION. Yes, you have made me lose all my faith in your religion. You are so un-loving unlike your christ who forgived everyone.

Buddhism seems like such a kinder way to get to God.

This is just for baptists.
I was raised baptist, but I am not anymore.

I wanted to know...What is the point is baptising a newborn baby?

Being baptised is about showing to everyone your faith and trust in god, or whatever.
A baby has no clue whats going on.

Why do people waste their time with that???

Which verse in the Bible says that God created the world (or universe) out of nothing? (Hint: Genesis 1:1 doesn't do that, so don't even try).

John McCain recently said "the Constitution established the United States of America as a Christian nation."

Where would he get that nonsense from? There is absolutely nothing in the US Constitution that establishes the US as a Christian nation. Nothing. The writers were extremely careful about not mentioning religions or gods.

Is he just pandering for votes or could he honestly be that uneducated about the country he wants to lead?

Hello all! I am in swirls of confusion!
I was raised as a "nondenominational" Protestant. Over the years I have delved deeper into my faith and explored many of its wonderful aspects. As commonly done, Catholicism was always thought of as negative or only mentioned in obscure terms. As odd as it may seem, I have for some time felt drawn to monasticim. (I have more books on monasticism than the average Protestant would...) I believe I may even be called to a vocation as a sister. But, after studying Catholic doctrine I still diagree with many of its teachings. And then, I feel at odds with many Protestant and/or nondenominational churches whose teachings I find (not all, just the ones I attended) to be very much centered on self, financial rewards, and the well being of its members only. If I were to conceed in becoming a sister, I do not want to be cloistered- many female communities are. I would like to be in a community where diversity in both age and ethnicity are prevelant. Help!

All over this answers thing we have people who dont understand christianity bashing catholics based on things they think we believe. Why is that.

And when they say we know you believe it!, is it just to annoy me?

I go to a spirit filled Catholic church. I never hear Hail Marys, I never pray to saints, all I see is complete focus on Jesus and love for God.

I have found that everything that goes on in Church within the mass is found in the bible. You can interpret it that way.

Why do people disagree, is it because they dont have any Church history or writings to show them how to interpret the bible.

For years I thought that the bible was Gods infallible word and should be taken on its own.

Now I find in the bible that it says that you scripture isint for personal interpretation. But people have been doing that for 400 years, why is that and is that the reason there are 50,000 denominations all believing different things and thinking they are right.

i dont carethat much if they believe god talks to them or the holy spirit guides them or whatever but the cheesy way they have to express it,really annoys me...it is an irrational "hate" i cannot control when i hear all those "open your heart to the light and love of our father" (most of the words capitalised) or "bow before the lord your king because his salvation is nigh" really makes me feel like vomiting...can´t christians speak "normal"?...after all they are no Shakespeare or Whittman,so leave poetry to poets...

Christianity would be a very positive force for society if they cared about full grown human beings as much as they cared about zygotes and fetuses.

I'm in a Christian club at my high school and out of almost 30 people only 3 of us don't go to their main church, which isn't a big deal. The problem is that everyone assumes we go to another church, but I don't attend church at all because it's sort of controversial in my family; my mom is baptist and my dad is catholic. Is it still okay that I participate in this on campus ministry without actually attending a church? My other question is how can I tell my parents? I don't plan on telling them unless they mention it first, but how can I explain how much I like it there? I'm afraid that because of our background my parents will think that I shouldn't or they will think it's peer pressure. I'm just so confused! Especially when religions start to clash.
