My guess is there are still things he can teach you, if you're open to learn.

Maybe, we shall see.

P.S. If you are still trying to call me a homosexual you are so far in the wrong it is astounding. I have not attacked you once, yet you continue to attack me.

Re: Peaceful Debate

So you are calling me a gay pedophile simply because I am Catholic? And you all claim to have no racism or prejudice on this site? Let me clarify my statement seeing as you have an obvious hatred for me for no reason and wish to misconstrue my statements for your attacks.

When I say I believe in the basics of Catholicism I mean I believe in the Holy Trinity and some of what is said in the Bible.

So what parts of The Bible do you pick and choose to follow? Is this some type of Christian cafeteria plan where one simply ignores the difficult parts of The Bible?

I am not a creationist, I believe in evolution, but I do believe God indirectly created the Earth. I believe in science up until the big bang, because there is no explanation for how and why the big bang occurred. I believe that God was actually the one who made the big bang occur. The laws of science state that matter and energy can neither be created nor destroyed so in order for the big bang to occur someone/thing had to create both energy and matter. The only explanation that makes sense to me is the higher power of God who is not governed by the laws of science.

At some point in the future when science is able to offer an explanation for the "big bang" will you reduce God's reign over creation even more? As science makes more and more headway into "understanding" the creation of the universe and abiogenesis, at what point will you simply disregard God altogether? You don't call yourself an atheist but you have started on that path by worshiping a "god of the gaps." Why should we even pay heed to posts made by an atheist on a Christian forum? I think you are here just to mock us.

yeah. Any attack is all in your mind.

Anyway, what's the Catholic church's position on saddlebacking? Does anyone you know do it?

My beliefs are set as there are. If a scientific breakthrough comes through that can explain the big bang my beliefs will stay the same. Though the chances of such a breakthrough are virtually nonexistent. To find something that can explain the big bang would be to break all the existing laws of science. The best science could ever possibly offer is the possibility of our universe being begun from another universe, but the existence of the other universe would have to be proven and then the question of how the other universe began would have to be answered.....it would lead to a never ending loop.

Any form of sex is the act itself therefore it is forbidden. As far as people I know doing it, no. I'm sure people I know engage in anal sex, but they do not do it to keep their virginity, they have lost their virginity before.

People can have sex in the butt? That's disgusting, I never knew.

And the God you worship is one that isn't there friend, unlike the God we TRUE Christians love and worship. Your' God only exists in ignorance and is easily dispelled by the feeblest of an hypotheses from a scientists. Unlike us TRUE Christians you can not point to a single event and say for sure God did it.

You Catholics should dress a chimpanzee statue up in robes and light candles to it and the not the Virgin Mary you are so in bed with the Darwnists.

My beliefs do not represent those of all Catholics. My beliefs represent my own personal beliefs, no one elses. And I would like to point out that I already have pointed to a specific event and said God did it, the big bang. You may not agree with me and I certainly don't agree with you, but I did not come here to dispute your beliefs, I came here to point out some misconceptions I saw in your posts and to correct them. I have not once attacked your beliefs, I have only said that I respectfully disagree. You all are the ones who are attacking someone who first, did not attack you, and second, asked for a PEACEFUL debate.

Re: Peaceful Debate

Does anyone here not realize that Catholicism IS Christianity? Christianity is the belief that Jesus Christ died for our sins. Something that Catholics also believe. I myself am Baptist and not Catholic and am saying this because it is simply the truth.

And so far, young furry one, you have only succeeded in spouting gibberish and making yourself look foolish.

Please understand that we do not have any misconceptions. In fact, since we rely wholly and unalterably on the AV1611 King James Bible(TM), which has been preserved without error by God Himself, one could hardly claim we even make errors of doctrine. We believe every word of it, you see. If one of us misunderstands a passage, we have pastors and deacons (dozens of them) to help set us right.

If you think we are incorrect in a point of doctrine, even though this is not a debate site, I'd be glad to point out your error.

In Christ,
Warren

Thank you Brother V. After all the blood I have spilt for Jesus it is really too much to have this young little snot nosed, video game playing punks harass me. However Jesus guides me to forgive them. GLORY!

Re: Peaceful Debate

Now for my first argument:
You all claim that had John Kerry won the Presidential Election in 2004 he would have banned the bible. You also used an image showing a leaflet mailed out by the Republican Party themselves "warning" the people of Arkansas that this may happen(image link: http://www.theocracywatch.org/arkansas_flyer.jpg ) and then proceeded to say

What in the world are you yammering about?

Does anyone here not realize that Catholicism IS Christianity? Christianity is the belief that Jesus Christ died for our sins. Something that Catholics also believe. I myself am Baptist and not Catholic and am saying this because it is simply the truth.

But it is a lie. Catholicism is not Christianity.

Catholics worship Mary, and scores of "saints" who are just renamings of pre-existing pagan demons. They also pray to crackers, and imagine themselves to be cannibals. They think their priests have the power to force Jesus to come from Heaven and enter a "death cookie", so they can eat Him!

Despite future evidence to the contrary, you will remain set in your beliefs? But here you are, picking fights with us because of our unwavering beliefs. I guess you are unwilling to provide the same consideration that you provide yourself - a typical atheistic mannerism.

Though the chances of such a breakthrough are virtually nonexistent. To find something that can explain the big bang would be to break all the existing laws of science.

Obviously you are unaware of the ekpyrotic scenerio, which can be explained through quantum mechanics (science). For an atheist, you sure are ignorant of your own belief system.
