If your answer is God loves angels, why did He throw Satan to hell.
Satan is a fallen angel.

+ Does God love angels? +
Yes.
God created both humans and angels with free will. Some angels and many humans have freely decided to break off our relationship with the God who is Love.
God, out of respect for our free will and probably with a broken heart (anthropomorphism intended), allows fallen angels and men to separate themselves from Him in hell.
+ What is papal infallability? +
The Catholic Church teaches that the Pope is infallible at closely defined times.
The Pope is only infallible when he, in union with the body of bishops, solemnly teaches that a doctrine as true.
This comes from the words of Jesus to Peter (the first Pope) and the Apostles (the first bishops), "Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven" (Matthew 18:18) and "He who hears you hears me" (Luke 10:16).
At all other times the Pope can be just as wrong or sinful as you and me and be in need of forgiveness.

+ Why do we need to pray the "Glory Be" when it is a fact that the world will end? +
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
This is a basic Catholic prayer.
"World without end" is an idiom that means "forever" and is not meant to be taken literally.
In Latin, the phrase "saecula saeculorum" means "ages of ages" (forever).
Sometimes this is translated into English as "and will be for ages unending."
+ Who is the longest serving pope? +
Some say the papacy began in 30 A.D. upon the declaration by Jesus Christ that Simon Bar-Jona would be called Peter (rock) upon which the Catholic Church was to be built. He went on to serve for 37 years.
Some say Peter became pope in 32 AD and was pope for 35 years.
Documentation of such things were not considered important at the time. Either way Peter served longest.
Second longest is Pope Pius IX was pope for 31 years, 7 months, and 23 days (11,560 days) from 1846-1878
Pope John Paul II is third longest with 26 years, 5 months, and 18 days (9,666 days) from 1978 to 2005.
+ What is the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart? +
The Sacred Heart is the heart of Jesus and represents divine love for humanity. It also stresses the central Christian concept of loving and adoring Jesus.
The Immaculate Heart is the heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus as a symbol of Mary's joys and sorrows, her virginal love for her God, her maternal love for her Son, Jesus, and her motherly and compassionate love for all people.
+ How will you prove me that the Assumption and the Coronation is true? +
I have no need to prove anything to you. I will lay the truth as I know it before you and let God do the rest.
With love in Christ.

1. Yes, God loves angels.
2. Papal infallibility is where the Holy Spirit keeps the Pope from erring when he is speaking dogmatically on faith and morals.
3. The World with out end is the supernatural world of God.
4. St. Peter - 35 yrs Pope Pius IX - 32 years. I'm not sure what you mean by "why?" They were no longer Pope when they died.
5. Sacred Heart of Jesus is a devotion that represents divine love for humanity and the Christian concept of loving and adoring Jesus. It originated with a french nun who learned of this devotion in visions of Jesus.
The Immaculate Heart of Mary refers to the physical heart of Mary, as a symbol of Mary's interior life, her joys and sorrows, her virtues and hidden perfections, and, above all, her virginal love for her God, her maternal love for her Son, Jesus, and her motherly and compassionate love for all people. The origin isn't specific...it arose from particular Bible passages mentioning the heart of Mary. Also, from what we know of Mary. The faithful began to practice a devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and it became accepted and eventually part of the devotions of the Church.
6. It would take too long to answer your question on this but I can give you links to prove these beliefs.

I will answer only one question and that is Papal infallibility. Jesus said "Thou art Peter (Rock) and upon this Rock I shall build my Church, AND THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST HER" In order for this to happen he needed to have someone in charge (his steward like Moses, Joshua, David etc.)to lead his Church, making sure there were no errors in teachings. This is what the infallibility does. It prevents the Pope from making an error in declaring doctrine. Personally the Pope can sin just like anyone else. If you have noticed, just about all other denominations have caved in to popular opinion in the way of Women Preachers, Homosexuality, Gay Marriage, Abortion, Euthanasia. The Catholic Church has stood pat against these atrocities, thanks to the guidance of the Popes. The Lord would take the life of a Pope before he would let them declare as dogma something that would lead to the demise of souls.

!. God loves everybody, so yes.
2. It means the pope is supreme and whatever he says is true, i think it means its God's word too.
3.I dont get what your saying, Is it the Lords Prayer?
4.I dont know nor is it important. I dont think its peter since he was crucified.
5.The sacred heart was a symbol of some kind of Catholic order. I think they guarded Christians persecuted by the Romans.
6.I forgot what those are, so i guess that means they arent importan either.
Im not catholic anymore because i think the Pope is just an old guy who a bunch of other old guys think is a good public figure. I and currently going to a Baptist church and hate it. I am going to convert to Islam
