  • In response to sizesmall1756 I have only this to say. Do your homework fuckin ill educated bigot if you want to diss the Protestant faith. It doesnt matter if a person in Protestant or Catholic it is still the same Jesus and as long as you love him what does it matter which denomination of Christianity you choose to follow? It is down to personal choice and nothing else. You want to stop being a Catholic and start being a Christian. You'll find yourself much closer to Christ if you do

  • My Uncle who in 1923 became a saint had this.

  • @xXstocksy100Xx Then why do you bear the mark of the beast?

  • @xXstocksy100Xx The letter 'X' = 6, and you have four. So the mark of the beast can be technically found in your username here. Be careful what you chose. Supposedly "innocent" sayings, ways and hand gestures are all evil traps that the devil sets for man.

  • @tieppol There is no such thing as numerical superstitious "mark of the beast"

    

  • @xXstocksy100Xx

    Who was your uncle, and do you have any interesting stories on him? Maybe a pm question?

  • FAKE (But the host is hawt, Jesus Christ!!!)

  • Comment removed

  • creepy

  • ., i mean what this really mean??

  • ., can i ask??i noticed this phenomenon to me!!what this really men??

  • @luerte23 Assuming you're serious, then if I were you I'd want to seek council with a priest, and take as much evidence as possible.

  • Another reason why religion and medical science should never mix.

  • Yes. Prayer is powerful and is a golden chain from our lips to God.

  • its just level of BULL SHIT,BULL SHIT,BULLSHIIIT!!!

  • @MsCapricorna Maybe bullshit,But the only thing i want to nail is the host of this show.

  • Fucking Bullshit!

  • Come on guys, people can believe whatever they want. Just have faith in something, that is what is important. Jesus taught compassion for everyone, even if they didn't agree with his teachings.

  • @Hakumei2226 What's so wrong with believing in someone who taught as such? :) science may explain how it happens but that's factual and of human understanding. God is beyond our total understanding.

  • Holy cow!

  • @TheTampleSmoke I am Roman Catholic and a Secualr Franciscan. I received the pains from an image of the Divine Mercy. Revelations are private. I am 47, I go to confession every 3-4 weeks. I have mentioned my condition to my parish priest but what I go through is private, it's not visable anyways. I suffer them for those in purgatory and take Communion to those in hopspitals.

  • @rbosque and @TheTampleSmoke - Jesus has already died, died to take your sin and pain and wounds and those of the whole world. They are not yours to bear but yours to cast onto Him Who cares for you. Be delivered and made whole and well. He loves you and gave Himself for you. If you read the Gospels, that is the message of healing and forgiveness Jesus brought. Please check out these scriptures and see for yourself: Isaiah 53:5, John 5:5-8, John 10:10-11, Galatians 2:20, Romans 8:11, 1Peter5:7.

  • @sizesmall1756 Read the Bible yourself. Jesus founded a Church and promised that the gates of hell would never prevail against her. I follow the one true Church and the Magisterial teachings of the Church that have been handed down to the Apostles. I do not follow a heretical fractured Protestant faith where there is no order and no Sacraments. Jesus shares his wounds with whom He wishes unworthy though I am. And please don't throw Scripture at me since it is a Catholic book.

  • There is also a hidden stigmata where the pains are there and there are no visible wounds. I suffer those. I have had them for about 12 years and I use them to pray for those in Purgatory.

  • @rbosque I do too. I've had them since the visitations started when I was thirteen. I pray for those who still live and suffer.

  • Carolyn is gorgeous.

  • @dikajenny and by the way, your numbers quote doesn't prove anything. It's taken from the old testament which was written before the time of christ, so obviously they didn't think that God was a man. Duh.

  • @dikajenny he said the lord our god because he was quoting someone else...

    The trinity is real. How you say? How can there be three different persons yet the same god? Answer me this, ice, water vapor, and water. They are all h20 yet in 3 different forms. Can God not behave in a similar fashion?

  • @joskam092 that made me think of the movie " reluctant saint" where saint Joseph of Cupertino explained the trinity by: 3 folds in a blanket! I thought it was a clever answer! :) Gods amazing!

  • i only wish to ask one thing how did God come upon the world to create us?

  • Believe in Jesus and repent of all sin...1 John 5:13 -I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.

  • What's the problem with these beliefs? Ask the millions who died in the Crusades, and since, and even today, ugly hearted people act on such beliefs to the detriment of others. That's the problem with BS. Because one thing happens today (stigmata), does not prove someone lived and died that way 2000 years ago, nor does it prove anything else. Pull your head out before you suffocate, the fresh air should help you think.

  • God is real... understand this truth.

  • There are two other young teens who cry blood (experience stigmata) look it up on here?

  • The only stigmata ever recognized by the Vatican as authentic was that of St Francis of Assisi.

  • @JustForKhadijah no, there are 8 I think...one of them possibly Saint Paul when he says, "I have the wounds of Christ"

  • I wish my cable provider had this show. It has such useful info.

  • Its called Στίγματα not Στιγμάτα

  • People who ignore the truth of Christ, fear having to account for their sins.

  • i have stigmata, for those of you who do not believe its possible. Its also absolutely not a psychological thing in my case ( I am an atheist). So go figure.

  • @elmodov wow you should make a video

  • Stigmata are fake !

    there was a NatGeo docummentraire that demonstrated it ! =D

  • @PeperoBoy YO MAN CHOOSE EITHER "SCIENCE OR GOD", GOD CAN CHANGE SCIENCE BUT SCIENCE CANT CHANGE GOD!!!!!!!! & DONT SAY ITS FAKE CUZ U DONT BELIEVE IT !!!

  • Why must religion cause so many problems? How very unchristian. Just watch the damn video and shut the hell up you nitwits!

  • JESUS CHRIST IS LORD!!<3

  • just stupid.. it says the bible John 5:37 "you will never heard his voice nor seen his form".. gift my ass?? no ones wanna get hurt, its EVIL and the EVIL say to you "I am your God, and you have to believe me" thats what evil do.. just nonsense, ridiculous and stupid..

  • @dikajenny The actual quote is " You have never heard his voice nor seen his form" (wrong tense.) Here, Jesus is talking to the corrupt Pharisees. But he said to his apostles in John14:9 "Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father". Even his name, "Immanuel", means "God among us".

  • @Gypsee1000 that's a fool quotation ever! that verse means "I am the way to the God" (at that moment).. here another quotation that JESUS is DIFFERENT with GOD.. i can send you another verse 14:28 the FATHER IS GREATER than all.. is that clear for you sir? another one, mark 15:34.. ELOI ELOI lema sabachtani (MY GOD MY GOD WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?).. are you really that fool??? even jesus needs god to HELP HIM!! enough said

  • @dikajenny "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God...And the Word became flesh 9 and made his dwelling among us, and we saw his glory, the glory as of the Father's only Son, full of grace and truth." - John 1:1,14

    "he eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had ordered them. When they saw him, they worshiped, but they doubted.

    -Matthew 28:16-17

  • @dikajenny Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you for so long a time and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on my own. The Father who dwells in me is doing his works. Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else, believe because of the works themselves.

    - John 14:9-11

  • @dikajenny "Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel," which means "God is with us." - Matthew 1:23

    Jesus is the Son of God and God himself, this is the mystery of the Trinity, the mystery of the Incarnation, God made Flesh.

    This has been taught and believed by the Christian community since the time of Jesus and the Apostles. Jesus if fully human and fully divine, this would explain passages regarding his humanity as well as divinity

  • @dikajenny Christianity is full of mystery because you are dealing with a Super Natural God, There is the mystery of the Incarnation, the Trinity, etc. Just because this is a mystery doesnt mean it is false. We have many mysteries in the physical word that cannot be explained yet they are true.

    Dont try to strip the Supernatural of its splendor and fullness of truth because you want a to have a full understanding of something that cannot be fully understood until your face to face with God.

  • @dikajenny Your ignorance of biblical theology is only superseded by your childish arrogance. It is obvious from your rancor and crude communication that you are walking in spiritual darkness. "You shall know them by their fruits".Mat 7:16

    Even for a 20 year old you lack the necessary humility and communication skill befitting your age. You don't belong in an adult discussion. You are spoiled, vapid and inexperienced. Now go play with your silly PC games and leave the adults alone.

  • @dikajenny In the meantime, go reflect on these passages that reveal the nature of Christ.

    Isaiah 7:14, Mat 1:23, John 1:1-14, John 10:30, John 5:18, John 5:23, John 20:28, John 8:58, John 14:9, Colossians 2:19, Colossians 1:13-19, II Corinthians 4:4-6, Hebrews 1:1-3, Hebrews 1:8, 10, 1 Timothy 3:16, Revelation 1:17, Acts 4:12, Peter 1:1, Isaias 9:6, Revelation 1.

    And there are hundreds more.

  • @Gypsee1000 and i have tons of verse that mention JESUS IS CLEARLY not god..

    NUMBERS 23:19

    GOD IS NOT A MAN, that he should lie, NOR SON OF MAN that he should change his mind..

    and there's a verse about adultery which is not good if you let your kid read it.. lol,

    Most christian dont read the bible so thats why when their pop explain about trinity they will say "UNDERSTOOD", the contradiction is too much.. and because of that bible is not perfect means FAKE

  • @dikajenny You came here to create discord, to attack the Catholic Church, to create doubt and to attack the Divinity of Christ. Every Christian reading your posts knows which spirit you belong to, for the same Bible from which you quote, also condemns you.

  • @dikajenny I suggest that you meditate on the following passages

    1 John 4:3

    and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world.

    1 John 2:22

    Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.

  • @Gypsee1000 @Gypsee1000 mark 15:34 in the ninth of the night Jesus crying and screaming "ELOI ELOI lama sabakhtani ( MY GOD MY GOD why have you forsaken me?) that is clear for people who has brain that JESUS is afraid and Asking GOD TO HELP HIM.. or you doubt your own bible like you doubting John 5:37 the lord thou who sent me HAS TESTIFIED and concerned it to me that you WILL NEVER heard his voice NOR SEEN his form, -CONTINUE

  • @Gypsee1000 and I do believe most of christian in this world is clearly dont understand with their own bible. e.g Swine/Pork is UNCLEAN for them according to Leveticus 11:7. Meditate for what? like stigmata will make me better? haha,

    you should learn more about your bible.. think about every thing in it.. Especially the Contradiction.. they are TOO much.. trinity is a kind of Joke.. Jesus Clearly says with his Mouth "The father is GREATER than I" so where's the Equal? you do speak english right?

  • @dikajenny Go take your Moslem beliefs elsewhere. This is a Catholic video, what are you doing here? No one wants to hear your lies. I was studying the bible (the document that the Catholic Church compiled by the way) twenty years before you were born. Like I said, your ignorance is only superseded by your arrogance. It is obvious who you worship and where you are headed.

  • @Gypsee1000 arrogance of what? i was an atheist, i studied every holly book in this world.. Born-Religion People are naive, they dont see the truth even tho he actually know it.. like every pope in this world say "Just have faith with it, dont ask to much". unfortunately I am not that stupid.

  • @dikajenny Oh you are thick aren't you?You talk pish! You clearly do NOT understand that piece of scripture do you.Your one of those idiots who take a piece of scripture and interpret it ( twist it) to your anti christian view. You are wrong.There is nothing in that part or any other part of the bible that indicates that Jesus was not the son of God! Jesus WAS the son of God whether you want to admit it or not and the bible is not fake!It is the living word of God so is therefore is infalllible

  • @trek2space dont talk too much about God's word.. see every version in the Bible is different, in Indonesia they called the father as "ALLAH" wtf? the NIV (new international version) has a lot missing verse in it.. how could be??

  • @dikajenny I'll talk as much as I like about the Bible being the living word of God! Do you know why? Cause it IS so. I read the bible as translated into MY language ( English), so I don't really give a fk what you have to say about other versions! The bible is the word of God ,totally and utterly.

  • @trek2space gods word? let me tell you something,

    mark 15:34

    in the ninth of the night Jesus cried and said Eloi, Eloi lama sabakhtani (my god my god why have you forsaken me?)

    are u out of ur mind when u clearly know that what you called "GOD" was crying and afraid?? asking another god to help him?? asking "why" but god is used to know everything in this world..

    u wanna say Trinity?

    john 14:28

    My Father is GREATER than I.. so where is the equal??

  • @dikajenny its funny how you ignored all the verses that i posted where Jesus equates himself with the Father. you pick and choose the verses to support your belief system while ignore the ones that proves your arianistic beliefs false.

    Also answer me this: why did all the disciples of the Apostles living in the 1st and 2nd century who were taught directly from the apostles believe Jesus was God?

  • @dikajenny Answer the question......Why did the Christians living in the 1st and 2nd centuries believe Jesus is God? Do you dare to say that you know Christian truth better then the the people who lived with the Apostles and died for Christ?

  • @carthage397 it's all have been setup by the scholars of Christian.. they always know when they have to change their law.. like using name "Allah" in Indonesia because they realize 90% here are moslem, and then they use so many Translation of the Bible.. some people Say that KJV version is the most accurate 1.. so how bout others?? as u can see in the NIV many verses missing but no one realize until u search it by yourself..

  • @dikajenny you didnt answer my question about Jesus being God......your talking about a totally different topic now to avoid the question.

    Answer the question......Why did the Christians living in the 1st and 2nd centuries believe Jesus is God? Do you dare to say that you know Christian truth better then the the people who lived with the Apostles and died for Christ?

  • @carthage397 it has been changed by the scholars with so many translation, you are the one that avoiding my statement.. now tell me, can you memorize the bible?? NO ONE! even paus cant!! if all bible has eaten by goat, you're nothing but a naive liar

  • @dikajenny secondly, the dead sea scrolls destroy your argument. The dead sea scrolls which were discovered in the 1940's proves that the Old Testament hasnt been change over the centuries.

    but back to the main point, you cannot answer my question about the early Christians so you are getting mad and are now calling me names ("naive lair"),.....seems like you have lose this argument, you are cornered and you dont have the humility to admit you might be wrong so you are taking the immature route

  • @carthage397 lose with this argument? i dont think so.. you deny all the statement i have said, and you deny the fact about the verses i mentioned before.

  • @dikajenny You're avoiding the question again.. Lol.

  • @Bazzyodartertjuh i never avoiding a question. he's the one that always avoiding my statement

  • @dikajenny You most certainly have.

    I have read the discussion from the beginning and okay, he is avoiding your statement too, but you're definitely avoiding his question: "Why did the Christians living in the 1st and 2nd centuries believe Jesus is God?

    Do you dare to say that you know Christian truth better then the people who lived with the Apostles and died for Christ?"

    Now stop avoiding the question and just answer it.

  • @Bazzyodartertjuh Jesus never said to worship him, he said:

    John 4:23

    Worship the Father in spirit

    trinity does not exist because Jesus and God are not Equal

    John 14:28

    For The Father is Greater than I

    Mark 10:18

    Why do you call me good? No one is good, save one. that is God

    Please tell me what makes Jesus GOD???

  • @dikajenny Stop fucking avoiding the question.

    When you question a question, it's called avoiding.

    I'm not going to answer your question since I can't answer them, I'm new in religion, so I simply can't answer them bcuz I don't know them.

    I was just letting u know, u're avoiding someone's question by askin him another 1.

    &just 1 more thing, I believe what carthage397 says,bcuz u are the only 1 backing up ur interpretation, while more people are backing up carthage's

    Now, have a nice life.

    Bye.

  • @Bazzyodartertjuh I DID not avoiding the Question.

    John 5:37

    Jesus : "The Lord Thou who sent me has testified and concerned it to me that you WILL NEVER HEARD his voice NOR SEEN his form"

    Numbers 23:19

    GOD is not A MAN that he should Lie nor SON OF MAN that he should change his mind

    thats the answer, Jesus never said to worship him as God. he said Worship the Father, he worship 1 god according to Matthew and His name is ELLOI

    how could u come up with that Idea, worshiping a creation??

  • @dikajenny Did I come up with that idea? No.

    Did I say you we're wrong or right? No.

    I WAS JUST SAYING YOU WE'RE AVOIDING THE QUESTION, THAT'S ALL!

    O my god, I feel sorry for the people who care about you.

    Have a nice life, goodbye.

  • @Bazzyodartertjuh ;) I feel sorry that I know better about your Bible rather than you do. Following something that you dont even know what it is, its just stupid

  • @dikajenny That just made me laugh. lol

    You can't blame me, I'm new in religion.

    And the reason I 'follow something that I don't even about' is because more people are backing up carthage's interpretation.

    You are the only one backing up your interpretation.

    This is the last comment you will get from me.

    People who think they know everything better annoy me fast.

    So, last time I'm saying this, I hope you have a nice life.

    Goodbye.

  • @Bazzyodartertjuh Deuteronomy 18:18

    I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers; I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him.

    PROPHET NOT GOD!

    Mark 12:29

    "The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.

    NOTICE how Jesus say "OUR GOD" in that verse

    My back up is your own Bible. face the truth

  • @dikajenny You're just a little kid who thinks he's right all the time, face the truth.

  • @dikajenny Well now, that is your perspective! However, I am aware that God was fully God and fully man in equal measure! The human part of him naturally felt a brief moment of fear as is expected but the divine plan came to fruition as Jesus died on the cross and was raised up again, as foretold by the prophets of God in the old testament. The mystery of the holy trinity is just that.. a mystery.So, none of us ,with our limited human minds will figure that out while on earth! R u outta ur mind?

  • @dikajenny You would be better off speaking of things that you actually know, like computer games and the such. Otherwise, you are only making a fool of yourself

  • believer or not , you cannot deny physical proof, and opinions from both religious and scientific scholars.. let's leave it as a mystery... because trust me, this world needs hope and faith !

  • I don't think religious people are ignorant. I think the more conservative ones can be arrogant. But a the same time I can understand the need to be reserved in this world if you want to be safe as thier conservative attitude is born of fear which equates to righteousness. I for one do not look at labels but I do trust my sixth sense and sometimes liberal can get you out of sticky situations.

  • ll

    llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­lllllll

  • Thank you dear Jesus for your angels on Earth.

  • Atheists keep saying Christians are bigoted, but atheists always show themselves as incredibly intolerant. What does it matter if we're all doomed to die with no afterlife, anyway?

  • religious people are funny, just because they are ignorant. let them life for if not, life wouldnt be as fun.

  • Simply amazing how angry atheists become when they watch something religious. We have no anger towards them so why such venom?

  • i do not believe in anything to do with religion, Its all bullshit. If one religion believes in many gods and another believes in one god only... then someone has to be wrong or both have to be wrong... They cant both be right.

  • @OMFGitzDannyP you just said either polytheism or monotheism has to be right, so how would you conclude from that ALL religion is bullshit? Your first statement kinda contradicts your second statement.

    Also what is your justification for saying that all religion is bullshit?

  • @carthage397 He thinks that both are wrong. Read his comment again again.

  • AAAARRRGGHHH!!!!!! she put her back to the tabernacle!!! :( :(

  • @dcrippen2000 Where in the Bible does it say one can't physically turn their back to the Tabernacle in a church.  I can understand it is disrespectul.

  • How come he got the wounds through his hands rather than the wrists??

  • @VIP7ANGEL because Jesus also got the nail trough his hand...

  • @kalllesvensson Actually, the nails/spikes would be driven through the wrists... contrary to popular belief, nails driven through a person's hands would under NO circumstances support their full weight... so instead, the Romans drove the nails/spikes between two bones in the wrist, and behind two more: that would support the full weight of the person... and destroy major nerve tissue, but leave all major veins intact...

  • This ladie scares me... shes so sierous O.o

  • If my Christians brothers and sisters would like to or want to even show how they are peaceful loving and kind spirits , then why not show it to your non-christian neighbours , for Christ himself said - I came for the Sinners not for the Believers because the Sinners needs more care and attention to.

    Why all the hatred and war of words if you want non-christians to understand Christianity.

    Did Christ not tell his 12 Disciples go to all NATIONS and make discples in his name?

  • interesting video,hope will be more documentarys from church to know more things

  • This is a really interesting video.

    To carthage397: you're quite zealous. Don't get yourself too worked up; stress is unhealthy. :)

  • at least you admit your an idiot

  • have you ever heard about irony?

  • i pity you

  • Whether you believe in Christ or not, if the belief gives people hope and helps get them through the day, then what's the problem. I personally am a firm believer in GOD and Jesus. He has worked in my life and he continues to do so. Just because you have different views doesn't give anyone the right to insult someone for their beliefs

  • @inloveanddeath321

    Religion is for those who cant life without a help of a some mind made god. How people even can worship that kind of mass-murderer. In His name has been killed the most amount of people. Those 'witches' were burned alive and others who didnt believe were forced to believe or killed. Religions are here only for wars. without religions here wouldnt be that much of wars, so bury religions and try to manage without mind made 'saviours'.

  • @Perkeletium You have not read or studied very much history . or experienced God.I ,approximately 15 to 16 months ago would have said almost the same thing..I did have an experience that not only change me but several around me..search and you will find out God does exist.Yes the fairy tale,as you might say, is actually a reality.You are as blind as a bat untill you understand and experience God.There is so much proof..and yes, You will go to hell for making the wrong choice.God save your soul

  • @inloveanddeath321 Is it insulting to sincerely enquire why you choose to conduct your life according to rules laid down by 'someone' whose very existance can be proved only to the same extent as Santa Claus, Fairies and Goblins?

  • @inloveanddeath321 I'm an atheist but I do believe faith can make people stronger. Keep on believing. :)

  • @inloveanddeath321 the problem is believing in something and spending money on something with zero evidence or rationality.THe money should be spent on helping the disadvantaged,not supporting idiots in the clergy.

  • @inloveanddeath321

    the problem is that most Christians are not content in being happy within themselves but instead seem to feel the need to CONVERT others to their cause. Leave me alone to my Sunday lye in for Christ's sake.

  • @asaluci It reminds me of former alcoholics who get clean and attend AA. All of a sudden they are preaching about the dangers of alcoholism and pointing fingers at others they suspect as having a problem. It's all well and good in my opinion. At least they preach using their words as opposed to swords.

  • sorry its a control institution keep following

  • thats not a valid response. You made a statement and i rebutted it with 4 paragraphs of facts based in history. Writing "sorry its a control institution keep following" is just a uninformed statement with no justification, rooted in nothing. Please try again :)

  • i think the catholic church is one huge cult

  • Now your statement that the Catholic Church is a cult. Some marks of the cult include: 1. not being able to leave the group (thousands of uninformed Catholics leave the Church every year), 2. Dehumanization of people outside the cults (The Catholic Church promotes the diginity and protection of all human life transcending cultures and religion, the Church is the largest provider of social services in the world)

  • 3. the will of the group over the well being of the individual (the Catholic Church has always protected and recognized the priceless value of the individual person while acknowledging that the individual is part of a human family) 4. Manipulation through fear (the Church warns against the danger of hell but always promotes the work of God in the world today. When i go to Mass there isnt a Sunday where i dont hear about the love of God for us and the love we should have for each other)

  • there are many other marks of a cult and the Catholic Church doenst have any one of them. I admit there are bad Catholics just like there are bad protestants, jews, muslims, hindus, atheists, etc. but have bad people in a religion in no way prove or even hint that the organization as a whole is of a cultic nature. A good book i would recommend is "Combatting Cult Mind Control" by Steven Hassan. Mr. Hassan was involved in the Moonies and gives indepth information about cults and how they function

  • i hope you benefited from this information. i would be open to discuss this further with you in a respectful way. I always try to use 1 Peter 3:15-16 as a guideline for debate and dialog because screaming and name calling doesnt solve anything and is just a wast of time. Take Care

  • i also think this is a demonic phenomenon. thnk u i was looking for a comment with sumone who shared the same belief as me

  • mawu 99 to address your first comment about stigmata being a demonic phenomenon, what grounds do you base this assumption on. Only extremely holy Christian people in the Catholic and Orthodox Churches (the Church historically founded by Christ receive the stigmata). So i would respectfully like to hear your justification for your opinion.

  • not much of this probably happened the cathlolic and christian religeom was created to cotrol people thousands off years ago thousands it has gotten way out of control but thas what happens to masses of proplr when they are desperate for hope ....they rely one institutions such as religeon ...usualy controled by goverment

  • to lifewarrior, in regards to your comments that the Catholic Church was created to control people. History shows that the Catholic Church was founded by Jesus and the Apostles. Jesus taught self sacrifice, love, service of neighbor. The Catholic Church has taught his from the beginning and continues to do this to the present day. A good book to read is "how the catholic church built western civilization" by Thomas Woods.

  • Also the Catholic Church is responsible for the university system, many break throughs in medicine and science (scientific method, big bang theory, etc) Most of the great cities of Europe were originally intellectual hubs of education fostered by Catholic Monks. When a group tries to control people its usually through controlling information and keeping people uneducated (as seen in the Islamic world), the Church thoughout its history has done the exact opposite through promotion of education

  • You also said that desperate people flock to religion, history shows that many many brilliant people (not desperate in the least) have found a true hope in Jesus Christ in Christianity. I am involved in several Catholic Churches and Pro Life groups and i haven't yet met a desperate person. what i have met are loving, intelligent people looking to bring love and justice into the world. In regards to your statement about religion being controlled by the government.......

  • Catholicism transcends cultures, socioeconomic and political systems. you find the Church in extreme Capitalistic countries like the US, thought the theocracies of the Muslim world to extreme communist countries like China, North Korea and Vietnam. And throughout all these very different environments the Church teaches the same things, love of God and neighbor, justice, mercy, respect of life, service of others, etc. So by these facts i dont see the Church being under the control of a government

  • tell me which Church teachs love and respect to other religion not to your own religion must teach love to all mankind not to self and about bible does not saying that this book for humanity or for mankind...now read it by yoruslef what bible says about peace...2 SAMUAL CHAPTER 12 if you disrespect God he will have you wife rape and your childrens kill while you watch Do not think that I came to make peace on the Earht I did not come to bring peace but a sword Matthew 10:34

  • first of all you have to quote scripture in context not out of context. when Jesus said i didnt come to make peace on earth but bring the sword he was saying how there will be conflict because many wouldn't accept him and there would be disputes and even violence in response to his message and his followers. Also i check your site, im shocked to be hearing a Muslim complain about violent texts in the Bible. If i would try to quote the violent texts in the Quran i would run out of paper.

  • im not gonna argue with you when your taking biblical verses out of context. you have some nerve saying he bible is violent, islam is the most oppressive, violent cult on the face of the earth. Funny how you didnt response to my claims on how in muslim countries muslims are blowing up and killing people all the time. Lets do a little quoting from the quran.....

  • Qur'an (2:191-193) - "And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution [of Muslims] is worse than slaughter [of non-believers]...and fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for Allah." Qur'an (2:216) - "Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not."

  • Qur'an (3:151) - "Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers, for that they joined companions with Allah, for which He had sent no authority". Qur'an (4:89) - "They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing (as they): But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah (From what is forbidden). But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them

  • if i went on i would be quoting for ever. just look at the fruits of the cult of islam.... violence, injuistice, persecution, terrorism. Islam is rotten to the core. Once the middle eastern theocracies collapse islam will fall becuase there will be no one to FORCE PEOPLE to be part of it. Also the quran is a false book, stories taken from the torah and bible and told wrong. If muhammed is the final prophet then why would he repeat the same stories that were already told in the torah and bible?

  • what about the satanic verses in the quaran. telling the people to worship other gods. then muslims take those chapters out of the quran hundreds of years later. Thats admitting there are mistakes in the quran, doesnt sound like a holy inspired book to me. Also the quaran fails to explain the christian belief of the trinity. Allah doesnt understand what christians believe? sounds more like a book written by some war lord in the desert then by God.

  • Very true. Truth was never meant to unite but to divide

  • @carthage397 "sounds more like a book written by some war lord in the desert then by God. " Kinda like the bible?

  • a book written by a war lord? what in particular gives you this impression. Also if you read the bible especially the New Testament its all about love and service to your fellow man. The old testament recounts many historical events which, yes included wars amongst other things but there Bible in now way sounds like it was written by a war lord. If you want a book written by a war lord pick up a copy of the koran.

  • Read The Chapter on Matthew and Mark.

    For He ( Jesus ) brought a sword and not peace , for there will be amongst you , brother sister , mother father , who will kill you for your belief.

  • The Quran is constantly talking about slaying the unbeliever. Catholicism teaches the peace and love of Jesus Christ. The Church teaches that other religions have some truth in them but the Catholic Church teaches the fullness of the truth. Islam teaches peace and love towards muslim but this isnt the case when it comes to members of other religious groups. Islam is the most intolerant religion in the world and if you dont believe me look at the facts

  • read history, since the beginning of Islam in the 7th century where ever muslims went there was violence, the crusades were a response to muslim invasion only a couple of decades after its conception. if you go to bbc or any other website when ever you go to middle east section or read about a country which is 5% muslim or more, things are always exploding. You can know a man according to his fruits, not what he says, and the fruits of islam since the beginning has been violence & destruction

  • whenever anyone criticizes Islam they get a death threat or a bunch of muslims start blowing up stuff in response! that shows that the islamic mentality isn't peace and dialogue, its "if you say something I dont like im just gonna kill you" when a belief system can argue its point in peace and dialogue thats when it is justified not when you say " Islam is false " and then a bunch of muslims start killing innocent people in response. your justifying your enemies accusations.

  • its funny how writers who have left islam have to use false names for fear of being attacked and killed by muslims. talk about intolerance. the only reason the middle east and other countries are muslim is because they have a theocracy that will kill you if you leave islam....some freedom. Once the theocracies of the middle east loose their strangle hold on their respected countries you will see a huge muslim exodus to Christianity because they are no longer FORCED to be muslim.

  • also when you misquoted Samuel 2 saying God had the wives raped? they weren't raped. David sinned against God and had Uriah killed so he can take his wife Bethsheba. he was being punished for this crime. you have to read things in context, not just quote a verse out of context in order to make it sound worse then it is. One shouldn't mis-quote the bible to make it sound harsh when the quran is full of violence, rape, war, theft and much more

  • i hope this information finds you well. take care

  • and also is not a gift you think that it dazen hurt to have it dont say that until you dont recibe it my whole life its been in pain you think that that is a gift well my brothers and sister i wish the same to you and when you recibe it you will say this is pain not a gift...God forvive them cause they dont know what they are saying,,amen
