Answer 1

Prayer is offered to a person in two ways: first, as to be fulfilled by him, secondly, as to be obtained through him. On the first way we offer prayer to God alone, since all our prayers ought to be directed to the acquisition of grace and glory, which God alone gives, according to Psalm 83:12, "The Lord will give grace and glory." But in the second way we pray to the saints, whether angels or men, not that God may through them know our petitions, but that our prayers may be effective through their prayers and merits. Hence it is written (Apocalypse 8:4) that "the smoke of the incense," namely "the prayers of the saints ascended up before God." This is also clear from the very style employed by the Church in praying: since we beseech the Blessed Trinity "to have mercy on us," while we ask any of the saints "to pray for us."

The Holy Bible Douay-Rheims Version

With Challoner Revisions 1749-52
1899 Edition of the John Murphy Company

IMPRIMATUR:
James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore, September 1, 1899.

Pope Damasus assembled the first list of books of the Bible at the Roman Council in 382 A.D. He commissioned St. Jerome to translate the original Greek and Hebrew texts into Latin, which became known as the Latin Vulgate Bible and was declared by the Church to be the only authentic and official version, in 1546.

The DR New Testament was first published by the English College at Rheims in 1582 A.D. The DR Old Testament was first published by the English College at Douay in 1609 A.D. The first King James Version was not published until 1611. This online DRV contains all 73 books, including the seven Deutero-Canonical books (erroneously called Apocrypha by Protestants). These seven books were included in the 1611 KJV, but not in later KJV Bibles.

The whole Douay-Rheims Bible was revised and diligently compared with the Latin Vulgate by Bishop Richard Challoner in 1749-1752 A.D. The notes included in the text were written by Dr. Challoner.

The DR Bible was photographically reproduced from the 1899 edition of the John Murphy Company, Baltimore, Maryland, by Tan Books in 1971. Eventually, this edition was optically scanned to produce a large text file which this publisher used for creating this website, with the aid of text-processing software.

One important goal of this project was to preserve the original text "as is", without making any changes in the wording, because the original text had the Imprimatur of James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore, dated Sept 1st 1899.

The text file was checked quite thoroughly by software written by the publisher for punctuation errors and verses out of order. The index was humanly checked for misspelled words and the corrections were made to the text. However, some spelling errors may still be present in the text. Many verses were out of order in the original file. These have been corrected.

Every effort was made to ensure that this online version is an exact match to the original printed version. No words were added or ommitted from the text, except for correcting errors caused by the scanning process. No words were rearranged. No verse numbers were changed, except in the case of Psalm 9.

Psalm 9 originally contained 21 verses and there were 2 versions of Psalm 10, numbering 1-18 and 1-8. This obviously caused a conflict, so it was decided to make the first Psalm 10 as the last part of Psalm 9 and renumber the verses 22-39. This retains the same numbering as all the Douay Rheims. Note, in the Protestant Bibles the numbering of Psalms 10 through 146 differs by one.

Answer 2

Not believing in a god doesn't make you a bad person. Some people believe in a god, others don't... having religion doesn't necessarily mean you have morals, just as not being religious doesn't automatically mean you have no morals. It's about your ideas, beliefs and what you choose to be.

It's all personal choice. You can't force yourself to believe in something, it has to be natural. However, there is nothing wrong with not believing in a god. It does not make you a bad person, at all.

If you're happy with who you are and what you do/don't believe, you have no need to worry. Don't allow others to tell you what you should believe in, religion and spirituality is a personal choice and is completely yours.

Answer 3

nicely, to a pair of them that's. they merely pass approximately issues the incorrect way. Being propose or pushy would not win you acquaintances or adherents on your deity, no count what faith (or lack thereof) you may carry expensive and no count how precise you think of you would be - or fervently have faith you're. so a approaches as your 2nd question, nicely, you replied that your self. I enormously doubt every person might make the blanket generalization that Buddhists are inherently unethical by using fact Buddhism is an atheistic faith and has no deity/deities of its very own. unusually, those comparable who would not call a Buddhist unethical for merely being Buddhist seem to each so often (no longer consistently) have no subject leveling such an accusation against somebody who's additionally atheist, merely as ethical - yet lacks the secure practices internet of a spiritual call for themselves. there is something very, very impolite and primitive approximately such habit and it won't be achieved. It reflects badly on the completed team whilst adequate of them do it, whether they do no longer seem to be interior the final public with that detrimental habit.

Answer 4

You are not bad. But without God, one might question what is good and what is bad? Whose standard are we basically basing on when we consider what is good and bad on? Why we have guilt feeling when we do something bad (alarm clock from God)?

God wants people to live in peace but without God, our selfish desires over take us, hence where are the chances of us being at peace or be good?

Answer 5

You have to be proud of who you are and your accomplishments for yourself.

You can't go through life trying to get approval from others...if you know you're a good person that's all that matters.

Try to get a little more self-confidence and this will never be an issue for you ....this goes for any choices you make in your life.

Answer 7

Nope! Belief or nonbelief in God does not make you either good or bad. A belief in God only provides a rational basis for morality, whereas without belief in God one has to appeal to irrational basis for morality. In fact, atheists would borrow their ethics from the Judeo-Christian framework.

Answer 8

Morality is above religion.

Morality does not depend on religion...

If a belief in god is supposed to make you good, it obviously doesn't work...
