False Teaching Cults
|
| |
Let me paraphrase what you are saying to see if I understand you.
You don't yet grasp that Orthodox and Catholicism are two different churches, but I am dumb.
Do I have you right? ---Cluny on 5/19/13
No. You don't have that right. That's not at all what I said or implied. If you can't figure it out, it seems you're even dumber than I originally assumed. |

False Teaching Cults
|
| |
\\Catholicism is a false religion. ---Jed on 5/17/13\\
So is Protestantism in any of its forms. That's why I'm Orthodox. ---Cluny on 5/17/13
Nope. Your Orthodox because your too dumb to know you're a Catholic. |

Can We Trust The Bible
|
| |
I must say I have learned alot about Catholicism on these blogs over the past few weeks and I can say that I am even more grateful NOT to be a Catholic. Here are some Catholic beliefs I have learned about on these blogs:
1) That Mary remained a virgin her entire life.
2) That Mary never sinned.
3) They deny the ultimate authority of the Bible.
4) The Bible is not inerrant.
5) That the teachings and traditions of their denomination hold more authority (or at least equal authority) than the Bible.
6) That only Catholics are truly believers.
7) That when the Bible talks about the church, it is actually referring to THEIR church, the Roman Catholic Church. (LOL. That is the funniest one). |

Did God Design Sexuality
|
| |
Marital Sexuality is a beautiful and SACRED thing designed by God. Enjoying relations with your spouse is not a dirty or unholy thing. Far from it. Actually, NOT having relations with your spouse IS A SIN. "Relations" are designed for two purposes: a) procreation, and b) mutual gratification. God designed spouses to be sexually gratifying to each other. Some so-called Christians want to make sexual gratification a dirty thing. It is actually a very beautiful and ESSENTIAL part of a healthy and Godly marriage. It is a sin to withhold physical gratification from your spouse. |

Is Peter The Rock Or Church
|
| |
Yeshua (Jesus) is the Rock. He was referring to Himself when he said "upon this rock". He was not referring to Peter. He was talking to Peter. |

Is Peter The Rock Or Church
|

There are only 2 Churches. The RCC and Orthodox which used to be One Church. John chapter 17
(Protestants came out of the Catholic Church. They are called Protestant for a reason. They were protesting the Catholic Church.)
You have to have a VALID Priesthood to be a Church. ---Nikki on 5/14/13
You have GOT to be kidding! You actually believe that your denomination is the total embodiment of the true Church (the collective body of believers)? Wow! What on earth makes you think your priests are "valid" priests and other pastors and ministers are not? Your arrogance is what blinds you to the truth and will be your ultimate downfall. |

Attend A Home Church
|
| |
Yes, I have seen & attended these types of "home churches" before. A major problem with these churches is that there is no oversight of the church leaders, which can also be a problem with small non-denominational churches where one person is in charge. |

Dating A Christian Witch
|
| |
First, there is no such thing as a Christian witch. They are polar oposites. Christian = follower of Christ, witch = follower of Satan. Secondly, I doubt you are ready to find a spouse at the age of 13, since you haven't even reached high school age. It is not a good idea to date just for the purpose of dating. Dating should be done with the intention of finding a spouse. |
|
Where Is The First Church
|
| |
Jerusalem. Acts 2.
This is the beginning of the Orthodox Church. ---Cluny on 5/3/13
According to you. Most people consider the Eastern Orthodox Church to be a split from the Roman Catholic Church. Most people consider the Catholic Church to be the oldest church, not the inappropriately named Orthodox church. |

Scripture For A Papacy
|
| |
Francis, that's where you're wrong. I don't believe that people who are in heaven can see and hear us, or our prayers. I already clarified, they are not omnipresent. They cannot be both in heaven and on earth at the same time. Not even Angels, demons, or Satan is omnipresent. Only God is omnipresent. That is why he can hear everyone's prayers and thoughts. |

\\Shira, that is why Cluny has no friends in real life,\\
I have 90+ votes on here from people who find my posts helpful. StrongAxe, whom you've also fired upon, has over a thousand. How many do YOU have? ---Cluny on 5/8/13
Again, I was talking about REAL LIFE. If you consider the people on these blogs who vote for your posts to be your real life friends then you are more pathetic than I thought.
Furthermore, there's a difference between Protestantism and Anti-Catholicism. YOU are simply showing the latter.
Oh really? Please do explain! "Protestant" literally means "a protester of Catholic practices or doctrines". Note the root word "PROTEST". Sheesh, what a moron. |

Scripture For A Papacy
|

Jed, one human can, should and MUST interceed for another in prayer:
1 Timothy 2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men, ---francis on 5/8/13
I agree with that and I'm not arguing with live human beings interceding and praying (to God) for each other. We're talking about dead people (now spirits) interceding for the living. That can't happen. My living brother can pray for me. My dead grandmother can not. We are not to try to communicate with the dead. They would not be able to hear us anyways since they are not omnipresent. Only God can hear our prayers (unless there are other people in the room and we are praying out loud). |

Shira, that is why Cluny has no friends in real life, except for perhaps his cat who he's named after. No job, no friends. What a miserable existence. |

Does not matter. If I ask you to pray for me, am i also praying to you?
If you truely have faith, that those who have died are in heaven with Jesus, then who better to pray for you than those physically closer to Jesus? ---francis on 5/8/13
First, speaking face to face to a live human being is not the same as speaking with dead people or with spirits. Communication with spirits is called praying. We are not to try to communicate with the dead, or with any spirit other than God's spirit. Secondly, Jesus is our intercessor to God, not Mary. Thirdly, Mary is not Holy. Only God is holy. Mary was a regular human being with human flaws and human sins. |

Monkbrendon, perhaps you missed my explanation to Nikki. I know full well that my comment about 99% of pedophiles being Catholic is inaccurate. I was making a point to Cluny. I was showing how STUPID Cluny sounds when he just makes up totally bogus statistics like "Most pedophiles are married". That is not even a real statistic. He just made that up. When asked what his sources are he can't name any, and then the number suddenly changes to ALMOST 50% and then to 4%. I was just showing that anyone can post any bogus statistic. If you don't know what you are talking about you should just avoid the conversation. ---Jed on 5/8/13 |

Disciples Of Jesus
|
| |
Dead people who are now spirits are not omnipresent. They cannot hear your prayers because they cannot be every where at one time. Only God can do that. If someone has died and gone to be with Jesus, then that's where they are. They are not floating around the earth listening to people's prayers. They cannot be both here listening to your prayers and in heaven at the same time, neither can they read your mind to hear your silent prayers. Only God can do that. Pray to Mary all you want, she can't hear you. I'll pray to a real God who can hear my prayers, Jesus. |

One thing I still don't understand. Even if Mary was sinless as you claim, why would that mean she had to remain a virgin after she had Jesus? Marital relations is not a sin and it is not impure. Actually NOT having relations with your spouse IS a sin. ---Jed on 5/7/13
Mary's virginity helps the rest of us in believing Jesus is God and not a creatures. ---Nikki on 5/8/13
That makes answer makes no sense at all. Maintaining her virginity after Jesus was born in no way proves nor disproves that Jesus was the Son of God and not from Joseph. Maintaining her virginity BEFORE Jesus' birth does that. There would have been no reason for her to maintain her virginity AFTER Jesus was born because that proves nothing. |

Once again, your misspelling shows your ignorance of the subject... Had you really been such a devotee, you would at least know the proper spelling.
You clearly have been converted to mere anti-Catholicism, not anything resembling Christ. ---Cluny on 5/8/13
And the fact you don't know the proper term in called PROTESTANTISM, not Anti-Catholicism, shows your ignorance on the subject. If you were such a devotee to Christianity you would at least know the proper terms. |

99% of pedophiles are Catholic/Eastern Orthodox. ---Jed on 5/7/13
I didn't know you were Catholic ---Nikki on 5/7/13

Kind of like how you and Cluny didn't even know birth control suppresses ovulation, and you thought you were experts. |
