  • I will definitely watch this movie. It is brutally honest. Bush has done a lot more stupid and ignorant things not great things. I hate when people who oppose Bush are automatically called UnAmerican, whats unAmerican is blindly following this pre…
  • Augustine "It not infrequently happens that something about the earth, about the sky, about other elements of this world, about the motion and rotation or even the magnitude and distances of the stars, about definite eclipses of the sun and moon, …
  • Creation and Genesis Fundamentalists often make it a test of Christian orthodoxy to believe that the world was created in six 24-hour days and that no other interpretations of Genesis 1 are possible. They claim that until recently this view of Gen…
  • The most important general conclusions to be noted are as follows:– The origin of life is unknown to science. The origin of the main organic types and their principal subdivisions are likewise unknown to science. There is no evidence in favour of…
  • i don't think there is a perfect person. I think any 2 people who are willing to work on their relationship thru communnication and compromise, and of course prayer will be in a good relationship. God blesses those who seek His blessing. But it i…
  • even if you live in a monastery, not everything can be for glorifying God (it would be good if we could but we are human), sometimes you just want to eat a burger, cause you feel like a burger...
  • i think sometimes people suffer from starvation because of our selfishness. Look at the way God fed Ishmael in the desert, and the Israelites with manna... that was a pre-cursor to Christ feeding the world with His Body.

  • I think this verse is showing us the necessity of the Eucharist. It is food for our Soul. God feeds the material needs of animals, how much more our spiritual needs? How wonderfully God allows us to be filled with Himself.

  • The statistic is not incorrect because in the federal and states appeals system the convict is entitled to AUTOMATIC appeals because he is facing a death sentence. Your argument that they get crappy lawyers is a reason to bann it not support it. A…
  • Free will is what makes us human... God allows us to hear His opinion through others, but we can choose Good, or evil.
  • "The Purpose-Driven Life" is a good book, but remember it is written by a protestant pastor. I would also recommend Matthew Kelly, he has written many many books and lectures. Matthew writes mainly to Catholic audiences, but it is still great for O…

  • Well, the UN and the Vatican are trying to get him released as well as the Indian government. But the militants in Saudi are a powerful group, some with ties to the royal family. Laws are ignored... I will pray for all yor requests and all of you …
  • I am personally not a big supporter of "Focus on the Family" because the person in charge, Dr. James Dobson, is a fundamentalist evagelical protestant... He is openly a bush supporter. He is also privately anti-Catholic/Orthodox.
  • I believe that evolution theory is plausible, but that God ordered that process. Again it is a theory among many... but Creationism, like the fundamentalist protestants believe, in my opinion is unlikely...
  • i don't think we must take Genesis literally... we could, but I think we can reconcile our faith with science. Here is why: God created day and night, but not first. So... as the Bible says, A thousand years in our sight is like an evening for Go…
  • I think we are generalizing a little too much. I have very good Muslim friends who don't want to kill me. They are wonderful people, and they are Muslim. There are extremists in every religion, look at Christianity's version of crazy - David Kore…
  • I can think of some dances that Glorify God. Ballet, Wedding Dances, etc...
  • Its incorrect to say "if it wasn't for the Jews..." If it wasn't for OURSELVES... Christ didn't die because of the Jews alone, He died because of US. God is outside of time and space, therefore our fighting, cheating, sinning, if not in the past o…
  • Ali was a genius, he knew that to get $ he had to act out in front of the camera. Tyson on the other hand is nuts, he's not acting. They actually take him off medication when he's fighting so hes more fierce. Are you guys forgetting he almost ate…
  • There is also that thought that God blesses those who act. We shouldn't expect God to provide a perfect spouse if you refuse every offer that comes your way. I think within marriage, happiness isn't a freebie. You have to work on it, and pray tog…
  • Please... don't be the next Tyson, be the next Ali... Tyson's a lunatic...
  • I am not saying the death penalty cannot be used. All I am saying is since we have a viable alternative, life in prison, we should use that. The death penalty is acceptable in countries where there is no other method of punishment that could be pr…
  • i agree that both can be difficult, but what about competitive cheerleading, not the sports sideline stuff...? thats the same as bodybuilding...
  • personally, on this one, I would just let it die out. This may bring more publicity to the movie than needed. I really didn't want to watch the movie, but everyones comment is making me want to watch it to see what's wrong with it. Not that I wil…
  • How about NuminousCatholic
  • Thank you and God Bless all of you who are praying for my friend, I know God hears your faith because he is healing from his first operation well. Please continue your wonderful act of charity. I was reading some news online and I found this: SAUD…
  • The movie is sucking anyway as far as I can tell... I know 1 person that saw it... let it disappear What I want to see is M. Night Shamylan's The Village and Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11
  • All of us were sin-less for one moment... at our baptism ;D
  • Well, cheerleading takes a lot of athleticism... so it is equal to bodybuilding. Again, I don't want my daughter doing it... then again, I don't want my son doin the skimpy speedo bodybuilding thing either. They're the same. Don't have double sta…
