That is one incredible book. Opened my eyes and my heart.
LOL -- Now that's funny!!!
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of interest.
Don't pray for me to your gods and mary and your pope or your dead saints! In my opinion, the catholic church is of Satan and the pope is the antichrist. Tell you what, while you're at it, why not sprinkle some water on me. I sure that will do as much good as praying for me to the dead gods and people that you are praying to.Pray for Wiley!
In the fox hole I want to know “Is he a good shot?” “Does he keep his head under fire?”
It's a reasonable question, and you've got some answers now :-). The spiritual life is a mystery in many ways, but we all have explanations that work for us, intellectually.
Have you ever attended a Mass?
“Contrast this to certain persons of the Protestant fundamentalist persuasion who have previously announced on this board that Mary was not really Jesus’ mother. It is a tiny little step from there to a complete denial of the Incarnation.”
Whoa...........! I’d like to see that with my own eyes.
(Don’t got to any trouble.)
“They were praying for me too, Wiley. Now they just send me hate-mail.”
We still pray for you too Alex. Your bigotry sometimes causes some folks to lose their cool, but that happens when folks spew bigotry and hatred. We are supposed to turn the other cheek, but the fallen nature of man sometimes wins out.
I will note that dragging your complaints from thread to thread is a violation of the TOS for this site. You might not be aware of that, but it is a fact.
I think another “dissenter” on this thread needs to be made aware of that. I’ve been asked to refrain from communicating with him, so someone else has to do it.

You are so welcome. I save them and post the links just so that they are available for someone to read. Others who aren’t interested, usually go their own way. LOL!
They were praying for me too, Wiley. Now they just send me hate-mail.
Actually, Alex, is wasn't all that long ago that I posted: I like Alex. He posts the good, the bad, and the ugly. Ilike it because he doesn't simply post the ugly. That's a good thing.
And I still hold true to that opinion.
So please don't generalize...
Agree with your last sentence here. I still maintain that prayers are needed.

You jumped on this wagon. Next time, don't!
You and your kind are not cordial to me now, why should this change anything?
Acts 18:9 Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:
10 For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city.
In Christ...Alone!
Excellent question. I wonder how people felt in the same foxhole with John F. Kennedy and numberous other Catholics.
It certainly is not from some guy in a funny looking hat!
In Christ...Alone!
