@crazycupcake96 luther overlooked many scriptural texts on many different areas of theology. St paul clearly states that what timothy and others should hold fast to was tradition handed on to them in writing AND BY WORD OF MOUTH. no where in scripture though, do we see the idea that scripture is ...

@iIVIatrix funny how non-catholic christians claim to be so 'bible based,' yet conveniently gloss over scriptures that dont fit with their 'theology.' one such moment occured when Jesus told the apostles, Who's sins YOU forgive, they are forgiven them. if Jesus didnt intend for their to be a mini...

its a wild dog with mange....for those of you who think this is a different species.

the quran was a made up rip off from judeo/christian beliefs, but twisted to keep arabs/others sub-serviant to a cleric system.

the quantum level is still a measure of physical matter; albeit on the atomic level. the soul, by most people's belief, is not material at all, but spirit.so this premise seems awfully flawed.

having a personal relationship with Jesus on a regular basis, is in itself, a ritual of prayer...and then because of the word's definition, religion. so this kid, while rightly pointing out that hypocracy in religion is wrong, is wrong himself about the meaing of the word definition, and about wh...

@David82576 the truth of a religion isn't about personal feelings. christianity is based on historical events; these chain of events are called Salvation History. the Koran, for example, teaches things about Jesus, that aren't verified outside of the Koran.

clearly "jeff" when he did his video, didn't define the term religion for a reason. he would have to deal with the fact that Jesus Himself was a faithful, 'religious', Jew.

@YipManneke everyone once in a while, what is truly spectacular, IS real. in the martial arts world, this is the bujinkan, if taught rightly.

bottom line as i see it. each person's martial arts training is their own responsibility. if you don't agree with a particular art's philosophy, or movement, don't do it. However, that doesn't give one grounds to start trashing an art one doesn't understand. having studied in the bujinkan, i can ...

for those who tear down the Bujinkan, what exactly is it you think the bujinkan is lacking? it contains versions of kicks, punches, holds, and techniques that are used throughout other martial arts systems, although, as i said, as variations. there are some techniques unique to the bujinkan. Also...

@477lrn what is the reason you think greater complexity lends to chance? from a mathematical view, that is exactly opposite of what is logical. In other words, statistics show, and you actually argue for this point, that the greater complexity, the higher the 'being' of something, the less likely...

@bassclarinet2000 Because aristotle did not understand the periodic table of elements, does not mean that one can just throw out all philosophy. that's ridiculous. of course Aristotle did not get it all right. but there are somethings he did get right. are you willing to discard these things due ...

@nickma71 the idea that peter and paul represented two different churches is unbiblical, and unhistorical.

@michiman57 what does your statement 'does not go together' mean? are you suggesting they aren't the same thing? bravo. we all hold that to be true. faith and reason are two DIFFERENT wings of the same bird (truth.) not all truth can be known by the scientific process. only that which is sensed c...

@murdan13 two quick points. Since Jesus gave his authority to the apostles, and said He would send the holy spirit upon them, How can it be said that the voice of the Apostles and their successors on faith and morals is not that of the Holy Spirit? to say otherwise is ridiculous. the other point ...

@Mcstroke57 Christmas came from the words for celebrating "the Mass" on the day the church celebrated Christ's birth. Christ-Mass is hardly a pagan holiday. what you are probably trying to say is that since the church placed it so close to the winter solstice, it must be connected. Well, that's t...

second, with regard to sexuality, the catholic church does not aim to 'repress' human sexuality, but to point out that like every created thing, human sexuality has a purpose and proper place in the cosmos. Therefore, speaking about the proper ordering of human sexuality is not a repression, but ...

@jaumesisa100 the error i see in your comment is that of applying human decisions, such as a bishop's support of a political figure, as somehow representing the 'faith and teachings' of the church. all churches, all people in general, fall short of living a perfect moral life. so the comment that...
