I have stated several times, in previous threads, that I am under no delusions that we will turn back the tide on social programs (at least in my lifetime) – there are too many people who believe that they are owed a living (or health care or a comfortable retirement or...) at the expense of others for that to ever happen. Too many people who fail to realize that if you deny the other, you deny yourself.

That's not a point I'm confused on. It means "universal".. specifically, the universal church, as in the unified church. The idea of protestant religion is directly in contradiction to the idea of being "C/catholic" (Yes, that's right. I managed to fit T/them-type grammar into religion. :P) There's also the "forgiveness of sins" (repentance) and "communion of saints". I may be mistaken, but don't most protestant denominations not believe in repentance or sainthood?

your Saints are not our saints once again, dictionary or just belive me it means a soul that is right with god, truely sorrowful and repentant. Yes, they believe in repentance. The protestation was against the fact that you could not walk up and get it from Jesus directly, as they saw the bible but had to go thru the veil of the priests, and then the idea that jesus removed the veil as direct interdiction on behalf of mankind and could see the father directly meant that there was no need for another layer like priests, Aaronic priesthood was bye bye according to the new testament. But this sort of shit makes me puke. Ron

It is the "Nicean Creed. After My Chatholic upbringing, I can still recite it by heart. The Lutherans ripped it off! Jeff

It seems that the prayer, down to even what the words mean, has been changed to suit a particular religion. Freaking religions.

mnottertail -> RE: What are some of your most controversial opinions? (2/15/2008 9:31:37 AM)
Martin Luther was a Catholic priest. It ain't like we are mohammed or jesus style issues. Ron

I still don't get what's so great about seventy-two virgins in Heaven if they're all supposed to remain virgins. What sort of man dies for the ideal of having an eternity of abstanance?

Leo changed the day of worship (subscribed to by Jesus) from saturday to sunday.... In the bible, there is an admonition against the anti-christ---He will think to change the time and the seasons........yadda yadda yadda..... Ipso Facto Ralph Cramden. Marraige was described in the bible as you and the woman walk in the church together and show yourself before god, no more needed you got the old ball and chain. Practiced by the Apostles and early christians as well. Then about the 4th century AD or so the Papacy needed a way to get more money (kinda like our governments) so they got in the middle of it and took a cut. more and more and more.
