    Poor Theology - God Told Me / You're Arguing With God

    There's a confusing mixture of ideas expressed in your post. So let's deal with the ideas separately and one at a time. The Catholic Church is about 2,000 years old but certainly not more than 2,000. Your post jumps to the 17th century which is commonly called the age of enlightenment or just...

    Wednesday, 5th August 2015 MORNING Walk in newness of life. Rom. 6:4 As ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. Rom. 6:19 I beseech you.... brethren, by the mercies of God...

    Poor Theology - God Told Me / You're Arguing With God

    You wrote The short answer is "yes" the long answer is that like any living thing the Catholic Church ages and grows so in its infancy it was not exactly like it is in its maturity.

    Poor Theology - God Told Me / You're Arguing With God

    You wrote I think that the purpose of what Cardinal Gibbons said is this: The need for an infallible interpreter of holy scripture is self evident when we look at what has happened among our separated brethren who reject the need; they have divided into many denominations each teaching what it...

    Poor Theology - God Told Me / You're Arguing With God

    You ask about being self referential (basically, that infallibility is a circular argument because the very Church which lays claim to it uses it as proof of her infallibility) and I will answer this way. The church is infallible as I explained in my previous post but not as some (who are...

    Poor Theology - God Told Me / You're Arguing With God

    Your post is long so I shall reply in parts as time permits and I hope that some points raised in the earlier parts may be answered and thus make unnecessary giving answers to some later parts because the matter is already cleared away in the earlier answers. Apostles are not and were not...

    Poor Theology - God Told Me / You're Arguing With God

    I think Josiah was intending to say something about infallibility. I'll find the relevant material and post it in here.

    Copper kettle tea room & coffee bar

    I had fish & chips for dinner and it was very yummy. I made a dressing for the fish - mustard, sour cream, and some vegetable stock powder. The fish was not battered.

    Poor Theology - God Told Me / You're Arguing With God

    I've exchanged posts with Josiah in ChristianForums and I prefer not to repeat the process. Suffice it to say that Catholic Dogma is available online and explanations of it can be obtained from online sources such as the Catechism of the Catholic Church and other reputable catechisms. I posted...

    USA Gun Control

    So too a nuclear weapon is an inanimate object that is nether good nor bad in itself so let's allow the Iranians to have as many as they want. And why not let Cuba have as many as Russia wants to give to them. Its a "free world!" ... The line of argument in your post makes not real sense.

    The nature of Mary

    The 'brethren' of our Lord are very likely relatives but not siblings born of Mary and that is what the perpetual virginity says about them. As for the reason, Mary is God's spouse for the purposes of bringing God into the world. That relationship never changes hence the theology is far deeper...

    Poor Theology - God Told Me / You're Arguing With God

    My "Good" applied only the the acknowledgement that Martin Luther was not and is not infallible. The rest of the comments in your earlier post were gratuitous insults hurled at the Catholic Church and I offer no approval and no commendation for that. It's bad taste and inaccurate commentary of...

    Windows 10?

    I installed windows 10 in a virtual machine on my pc to test it out. I didn't want to lose Windows Media Centre because I use it for watching live TV with a Videomate U80 USB TV tuner stick and one can't do that under Windows 10. My overall impression is that it is good. It is similar to...

    USA Gun Control

    Have less of them in the hands of people who do not own a farm or go hunting or use them for rifle ranges where they can shoot for sport at targets. Require them to be kept in locked gun safes. Keep ammunition in a separate locked safe. But in the end gun laws and restrictions on ownership...

    The Ever Virginity of Mary

    I think that regardless of the way a reader takes 'brothers' in the passage (Matt 13:53-57 KJV) Blessed Mary is not said to be the mother of the 'brothers'.

    Need Prayers

    You are in my prayer. I had my gallbladder removed several years ago, it went smoothly, no bad after effects and no pain since. May God guide the hands of those who have charge over you during the operation and for your stay in hospital.
