    Holiday Happenings?

    It's cool today, but they predict 36c for Friday. I unboxed the new ac and have it in the room it is intended for, I'll set it up and test it later today. :)

    Ice

    It is also possible that the Spirit of God moved (hovered?) over the waters without reference to the state of the waters or the source of heat that kept the waters warm (or cool).

    What does scripture say is scripture?

    Pedrito, when Jesus spoke with the Sadducees and referred to the scriptures he used only the books of Moses. When Jesus spoke to the Pharisees he used only the Psalms, Moses, and the Prophets. The example of Christ appears to be "use what your hearer accepts as holy scripture". Paul used the LXX...

    Why People Believe Conspiracy Theories

    The bible remains unchanged. It's truth appears to change from generation to generation. Not many generations ago some Christians argued in favour of Slavery from their reading of the bible - consider Robert Lewis Dabney (a USA Southern Presbyterian). If one argues for unchanging truth then R L...

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    Take a jet trip at night when the moon is full and bright and see how ubiquitous the moonlight on the clouds really is.

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    Clouds in front of the moon? Do you mean clouds in earth's atmosphere that are between the moon and the earth? Why would they be illuminated when the earth and its atmosphere are in night?

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    That's a diagram of the earth and the moon. The Sun is not included. Have you ever been to a planetarium?

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    The sun is always in space and since space might be seen as "sky" the answer to your question is yes, the sun is always in the sky above one side of the earth and hidden from the other by the bulk of the earth itself. Since the moon too is always in the sky in the same sense in which the sun is...

    What does scripture say is scripture?

    Pedrito, what the Jews of Jesus time recognised as holy scripture differed between the sects of Judaism then in existence. Pharisees may have accepted 22 or 24 books as holy, or they may have been debating the matter at the time of Christ. Sadducees accepted only the books attributed to Moses...

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    A full moon need not be directly in the shadow cast by the earth. But sometimes it is and then we see a lunar eclipse in which the moon goes dark-red as the earth's shadow passes over it. Surely, Stravinsk, you are playing troll now. Surely you believe that the clouds are closer to the Earth...

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    The Earth lies below the clouds in the earth atmosphere and the moon far beyond the atmosphere and above the clouds. The light on the moon did not pass through the earth before reaching the moon. Here is an image of the moonlight illuminating the clouds from above. It shows that the moon is far...

    The light is reflected from the moon's surface, some of it shines on the earth.

    Reconciliation

    In Catholic teaching the sin of calumny is accounted very serious because of the harm it does to the one about whom the untruths are told. A reputation once lost is permanently damaged. That is not to say that calumny cannot be forgiven but its harm may never be expiated even with the passage of...

    Have we lost the faith of our fathers?

    It looks like clouds and the moon in the night sky but if it is really such a photo I cannot tell from the poor quality resolution and the scant information provided by you in your post. This image, shown below, is more easily identified as the moon in the night sky with clouds.

    Confession

    One's sins cannot be retained when one comes in genuine contrition and asks forgiveness of God. No pastor or elder can retain what is truly repented and in their hearts the ministers know this and act upon it.

    Confession

    The absolution is always from God the power to dispense it is given by Christ to the faithful who minister to God's people. That is the purpose of the Lord's words in Matthew 16:19; 18:18; John 20:19-23.
