    What church?

    This time I will write meh. Saint Chrysostom maintained in one of his sermons that "this rock" was saint Peter's confession but his argument was not based on grammar but on reasoning about what must have been the intended meaning of the Lord's words. He had to play fast and loose with the...

    Things that make you go hmm

    Perpetual motion machines and free energy from some simple discovery are silly ideas but seeing them described at length on YouTube and watching people express their credulity by affirming that energy is being created from nothing makes me go hmm. :smirk:

    The singular, unique, one Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church.

    I recall writing Some folk complain that the Catholic Church is singular and unique as if those attributes were negative. I guess their complaint really amounts to a complaint that exactly one Church should exist rather than many denominations, meetings, groups, and churches all participating in...

    What sin did Mary do?

    Perfect doesn't mean sinless? Why do you say that? What is sinless in your vocabulary? I ought to remind you I didn't say anybody was sinless except for the Lord Jesus Christ. But that fact may have been missed by you.

    A thought (or two) on unity.

    Josiah, after reading your post I am inclined to say meh. It is easy to lose patience with a post that so obviously misses that meaning of the words to which it is an attempted reply. Unity does not mean sameness. It does not mean everybody agrees about everything. It does not exclude petty...

    What sin did Mary do?

    What do you make of these statements - they are not about Blessed Mary. There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil. And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none...

    Josiah, this thread is not the thread about Unity. :)

    A thought (or two) on unity.

    Unity existed in the years 30 to 33 AD when Jesus was with the apostles despite their differences, petty ambitions, external pressures (from friends, family, and enemies), and every other thing that this world and Satan brought against them. Unity continued to exist in the apostolic Church...

    What sin did Mary do?

    Blessed Mary is and always was without the disfiguring mark of sin. That is an affirmation of holy scripture and no denial. Perhaps for you it seems like a denial because for you Blessed Mary is just a woman of no special significance - except that she happened to be the mother of the Lord. For...

    How does our fasting provide the healing?

    "Temptation should not take hold of you, except what is human. For God is faithful, and he will not permit you to be tempted beyond your ability. Instead, he will effect his Providence, even during temptation, so that you may be able to bear it." I think it encourages us to struggle against the...

    What church?

    I've heard that theory about what Jesus meant too but he didn't say "on this revelation I will build my church ..." he said "on this rock I will build my church ..." But saint Peter's confession was the immediate reason for the Lord's statement to Peter nevertheless the Lord chose to speak to...

    Has Science Gone Too Far ?

    Some animals are very similar to human beings though they do not have exactly the same capabilities. Chimpanzees, Bonobos, even gorillas share a great deal of the same genes in the same places as human beings. But I agree that one ought to have moral misgivings about the wisdom and rightness of...

    What church?

    I responded to the first part of your post to make sure that nobody would walk away from this thread thinking that I (or Catholics in general) think that "Church" means a building. I read the rest of your reply with delight. I did not comment on it because it was comment enough in its own words...

    A thought (or two) on unity.

    Yet Jesus prayed And now I am no more in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name, which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we are one. While I was with them, I kept them in thy name, which thou hast given me; I have guarded...
