There is no one on this planet who loves to label people and pigeon hole them than a Catholic.
I guess it’s the only way that they can pass judgment on others and feel completely justified in it. It does nothing but create an attitude of smug superiority in those doing the labeling and judging.
It’s all about control.
Their words are meaningless noise.
Like a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
The Word of God stands forever and states that you are His. Don’t let the meaningless noise of unbelievers rattle you.

You could at least come up with something new instead of the worn out posts seen time and again...same old pot..same old graphics.....there truly is nothing new under the sun....the persecution simply never ends when you guys get your dander up on the high horse you ride...and you can’t see what you are revealing about yourselves.....and it isn’t a reflection of our Lord and Savior.
“Any other questions?”
Yeah, why the fear? What harm, other than having to defend your own faith, is there in identifying what congregational or denominational tag fits your beliefs? Is your belief system so weak that it cannot stand scrutiny?
But you should know as the Lord is very clear about it.
Do you also include pedahilia and beastiality in the mix as comparable to alcoholism...where is the line drawn in your opinion?
When we as Christians stop calling sinful actions against God "behavior" or "diseases"...then we just might one day lead those who practice these sins to repent and find In Christ the forgiveness they need. As long as we excuse the actions for something other than what they are in God's eyes.. these people will have no hope....and most will die in their sin.
Don’t take the bait PNSN.....we’ve all seen it before along with the snarky comments. It’s getting pretty deep in here....ya know.
Sorry, didn’t realize it was past your bedtime.
There's no fear.

Total and unmitigated cluelessness abounds in Catholicism.
Likely not for the last time, our identity is NOT in a denomination or congregation or group of men. Our identity is IN CHRIST. We are in HIM, not in a church.
Labels mean nothing. They are man-made constructs that mean nothing to God and nothing to us.
Your attempts at wit are as boring as your attempts at sarcasm.
One cannot do to their bodies what homosexuals do, which is far more than most have a clue about...without it affecting the mind. We do become the choices we make...Homosexuals change in their appearances as well over time...there's a real putrid look that eventually shows in their skin. Some will resort to body building etc. to offset the body changes.
Is that what it is?
I thought it was the boredom everyone feels when they see the same tired old posts over and over again.
Something about Catholicism must stifle creativity. It must be that not being allowed to think for themselves part.
Catholics do not worship Mary.
We worship Christ in the Mass.
We love Mary because she is His Mom!!
“...our identity is NOT in a denomination or congregation or group of men.”
Then why the fear in identifying them? Christians should have neither fear nor duplicity and yet the anti-Catholic crowd here includes those who refuse to identify what congregations or denominations they feel leads them (and presumably others) to Christ.
Catholics have neither of those issues, we proudly proclaim our membership in the Mystical Body of Christ and His One True, Holy and Apostolic Church.
Why the fear? Is the light of day so hateful?
That's likely because there's a closer connection between the soul and body than we realize.
I would figure that the practiced behavior causes the chemical changes rather than the chemical changes causing the behavior.
Science and scientists are not known for getting the order of things right and often put the cart before the horse.
“It must be that not being allowed to think for themselves part.”
How Christlike. Tell me again what odd sect teaches people to hide their faith and engage in bigotry against the Catholic Church?
Thank you - Our Lady of La Salette!
