That's a tough row to hoe. I don't recommend it, and neither does the Catholic Church so far as I can tell from the authorized Catholic teachings found in the 'Catechism of the Catholic Church.' Agreed. That's all right. I recommend though following Catholic advice on this matter, which is...

:D "Rats" nominated for 'Best Rock Song' Grammy, and Prequelle for 'Best Rock Album.' ;)

you had me at "acw's unhappy"

Melania's Catholic. The Apostles' Creed is a prayer in the rosary, and is recited at Mass during Lent (the Nicene Creed the rest of the time). She didn't need to read it off a piece of paper.

Haven't evangelicals taught that there is temptation, which does not make us guilty of any sin, and indulging temptation, that does? There's the thought, and then there's the choice to embrace the thought; that last part's the sin, isn't it? How can we any of us control what thoughts pop into...

What are Jesus' clear teachings on homosexual, Meshak?

He does? Really? Where is that verse?

Meshak, what did Jesus teach us about homosexual?

I am aware that "homosexual acts [are] acts of grave depravity," "are intrinsically disordered," "are contrary to the natural law," "close the sexual act to the gift of life," "do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity," and, "Under no circumstances can they be...

Still waiting on what confusion.

What confusion.

Regardless, the right of LGBT people to keep and bear arms ought not be infringed in any way. LGBT people possess the inalienable right to self defense, and that with the most superlative weapons that are produced today. It was a joke. We already have that in the Bill of Rights. 'Problem is...

They the victims should have been armed. They are an endangered population. We ought to amend the Constitution to prohibit lawmakers from making laws that in any way infringes the right of LGBT people from keeping and bearing arms, but that's just pie-in-the-sky thinking, I know.

Everybody who believes in the right of the people to keep and bear arms is my ally. How is Bumatay's record on gun rights? If it stinks, then I'm against Bumatay, but if the NRA gives an 'A' grade, then I'm for Bumatay; my ally. LGBT people ought to be the strongest advocates for gun rights...

How is Bumatay on gun rights? As an endangered group, it'd make sense to me if LGBTs were uniformly strong supporters of gun rights, but it doesn't appear to be the case for some reason. But President Trump has so far done OK with nominating OK judges wrt gun rights, I'm just wondering if he's...

Text 11, 'Catechism of the Catholic Church' ('CCC') This catechism aims at presenting an organic synthesis of the essential and fundamental contents of Catholic doctrine, as regards both faith and morals, in the light of the Second Vatican Council and the whole of the Church's Tradition. Text...

I'm pulling a concurrent conversation into a new thread. More sophisticated deceptive tropes than these, appear in the game of poker also. There are two types of deception in poker. One is when you figure that your hand is weaker, and one is when you figure that your hand is stronger. A basic...

I'm pulling an off-topic conversation into a new thread. That's because your line in the sand is that we each only have the right to be Davy Crockett. They still very much do. The NRA remains the standard bearer for gun safety. They also naturally have an interest in gun law. A cynical view...

What are some 'pro life tips' that you've learned? Share them here. I posted in 'Religion' because there's no limit to the scope of the 'pro life tip.' ('Pro' modifies 'life tips.' I don't mean anti-abortion by 'pro life tips.' That would be 'pro-life tips.' That's not what I mean.) The...
