That verse fits!

Get a load of this nonsense from Aquinas College:

“...all men and women are created in God’s image and likeness and are made with a capacity to love and be loved. The college supports the Catholic Church’s teachings which are open to the diverse needs and desires of all, which must be considered in light of eternal truths.”

If you want to know how the Anti-Christ will fool people, there it is! Yeah, everyone has the capacity to love, even unrepentant sinners, but so what? The FIRST commandment is to love God with all your heart, mind, and soul, and Christ’s second commandment was to love your neighbor as yourself. You don’t encourage someone you love to sin by violating the first commandment.

Then they bring up the diversity crap. Diversity is potentially harmful for the church. It’s only OK when diversity applies to non-salvation related issues like what foods to eat. It’s simply evil to say diversity is permitted (for Christians) about salvation related issues, like whether homosexuality is or is not sinful. Scripture is clear. Homosexuality is sinful.

Of course, Aquinas College throws in the point at the end that all of this love and diversity stuff must be “considered” in light of eternal truths? Wow. What a ringing endorsement of those eternal truths upon which peoples eternal souls are on the line!

As far as wanting to promote unity, that’s another lie that’s totally destroyed some churches. Yes, we’re supposed to work together as Christians and not quibble over doctrinal issues. I’m a Protestant, for example, but I know I have many Catholic brothers and sisters. We have differences of course, but we all follow Christ. That’s the unity the Bible talks about, not unity with unrepentant sinners or those who preach heresy!

I also had 8 years of Jesuits (high school and college) and find them far removed from Catholicism these days. Catholic schools today are, in my opinion, just expensive private schools with a Crucifix out front. I did find the Dominicans who ran my son’s grade school to have been far, far better than others, though. Most of the schools are controlled by lay teachers exclusively.

When I read posts like this about homosexuality and how ‘cool’ it’s supposed to be in society, I wonder where our country is going (to hell?). All a person has to do is do a Google Search on your computer about all the places in the Bible that God condemns homosexuality. The good Sister was doing the right thing, if only pastors in our churches would speak like her instead of overlook the things God condemns in the Bible, -they are afraid they might offend someone in the congregation like this Sister did.

The anti-mozilla - that’s the problem. Which browser?

I've been in this forum for over a decade and I can confidently tell you from direct observation that the Catholics who say "all is well in the Catholic Church" are few to none.

The problem always comes down to soi-disant Catholics not being Catholic enough. If we all followed the whole treasure of Faith and Morals of the Catholic Church it would be a better society. A better nation. And a better world.

Google doesnt make any money for the use of Chrome.

not that I know of.. and anything they could discover would be greatly overshadowed by what Ive posted on Free Republic.

now Google Adsense...on the other hand...[ no direct relationship to Chrome] takes note of your browsing history and the search terms youve used....... to display ads for items that you have done searches on!

ive been getting ads for Sigma camera lens for months now..displayed on places like the Drudge report

those ad placements are determined by the individuals..search history.

I routinely disable javascript. Unless a site does not render or it is required to do business, no javascript. I also delete session cookies once leaving a site, and all others periodically. I avoid google and use ixquick or startpage instead.

So that’s the long way to say I’d like to avoid chrome. It’s a good browser but I’m pretty sure they track activity. I’ll look into that to be certain one way or the other.

There are quite a number of situations in which chrome sends data to google: https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/privacy/

Some features can be disabled: http://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/privacy/whitepaper.html

Unless I’m at a google website there should be no data going to google.
