1Ti 4:3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats,

Catholics eat meat....we lve it, pork included (remember that the bible mentions not eating pork)....so when the church asks us to refrain from eating meat on ne day, it becomes a little penance that we endure to honor God by giving up something we like.....We forbid no one to marry except those of the same sex, and those who are already married....

And what's the point of *penance*? How does giving up something you like honor God?

We forbid no one to marry except those of the same sex, and those who are already married....

And priests and nuns.

Now why would you say that??? We all know it's not true...That's like when some of you say Catholics don't pray to Mary...We've provided evidence to that lie more times than I can count...
