    Should the pope step down

    No pope is infallible nor is the office infallible the only thing that is infallible that is within the scope of a pope's exercise of his office is an ex cathedra statement. Such statements are rarely made, with the possible exception of the canonisation of a saint. It is a mistake to treat...

    Should abortion be illegal?

    I've been asking that for a while, thanks for asking too. If a law makes it illegal then what happens to those who break the law and if it is murder what ought to happen to them, both the doctor and the mother whenever the mother procures the abortion willingly and freely herself. It's one thing...

    Is your creed catholic, Catholic, or Christian?

    In the mass we usually say the Nicene Creed. But sometimes we say the Apostle's creed and the wording that we use is this: I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, At the words that follow, up to and including ‘the Virgin...

    Ten Commandments.

    Interesting thoughts. How do we break down the ten commandments as given in Exodus 34? Exodus 34:10-28 10 And he said, Behold, I am making a covenant. Before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been created in all the earth or in any nation. And all the people among whom you are...

    Should abortion be illegal?

    If abortion is made illegal what ought to be the penalty for the doctor and for the mother - if it is murder to abort what ought to happen to the murderers?

    Was Luther Insane?

    It doesn't really matter if Martin Luther was insane. His theology is kind of crazy. :smirk:

    A word that can save.

    In John 15 the detachment and eventual incineration is caused by not bearing fruit.

    Salvation

    "Narrow" is an odd word to apply to God's gift of himself. The idea that justification has absolutely nothing to do with the person who is justified is false as false as the phrase "voodoo justification" is. "Narrow justification" is a fantasy like Harry Potter's world of magic wands and...

    Doing good for bad reasons.

    I think of traditions as coming in more than one kind; there is the kind handed down from the apostles, there is the kind that arise as prudent measures for the safety of the church and Christians, and there is the kind that arise as ad hoc measures and later become laws which can hinder the...

    Abundant Life

    Many Catholic Christians have believed that suffering is both part of a holy life and a blessing by which a Christian participates in the work of Christ saving the world from sins. Is that what you are thinking about too?

    Holy is his name.

    Since God's name is holy does that mean it is a name that is separated from common names - names like Fred and John - And Mary said: “My soul magnifies the Lord. And my spirit leaps for joy in God my Saviour. For he has looked with favour on the humility of his handmaid. For behold, from...

    Innocence.

    Fair enough. Meeting Jesus did sometimes provoke faith and sometimes it provoked resentment but most of the time it had only a short term effect and then people forgot about him.

    Ten Commandments.

    Saint Paul wrote something like that, I think, or was it saint James? For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become accountable for all of it. For he who said, Do not commit adultery, also said, Do not murder. If you do not commit adultery but do murder, you have become a...

    An old road to life.

    Do you think that Jesus fulfilling the law means that you do not need to keep the moral commandments and if you do can you say why?

    Was Luther Insane?

    I am careful about external links because they can be to long articles and because I figure that the thread poster can give whatever salient points are in the article in their post and if they don't then that is a discouragement for me to go and read the article.
