DesiringMore Posted December 16, 2003 Posted December 16, 2003 unfortunately you have ANTI-everythings in all walks of life....but you have to remember just as i have with the Catholic church, not everyone is hypocritical, slandering, and just like the next anti-Catholic person!!!! I am sorry that you have experienced this...but i too have experienced anti-protestants....its not fun...that's one reason why i will NOT participate in such....
Lil Red Posted December 16, 2003 Posted December 16, 2003 Why do you all think that so many other denominations are against Catholicism? Why isn't it just recognized as another Christian denomination, rather than a cult that sends people to hell? P.Patty, this is just what I think, but I think it's because the Church has taught the same thing for 2000 years, and we won't back down on something just because "society" tells us it's okay. Things like with abortion, contraception, pre-marital sex, divorce, etc. People hate the Church because She won't let people do what they want. She holds people to a higher moral standard.
MrsFrozen Posted December 16, 2003 Posted December 16, 2003 So, the difference between the crucifixion and the cross is that the crucifix has Jesus hanging on the cross?? please tell me if i'm wrong Yes, that's right..
Peppermint Patty Posted December 16, 2003 Posted December 16, 2003 I think that's one of the biggest problems with Christianity, is that people take their own views about things, and then try to find some Scripture that fits into their ideal. On Christianity.com, I have seen soooo many people who claim to be Christians decide to take their lives in their own hands and do whatever they want. They will date and marry unbelievers, watch and read horrible things, go out drinking in bars, have premarital sex, etc. These are things that should not only be really obviously against God, but whatever happened to allowing the Holy Spirit to work in your life? I mean, seriously, just because certain words can not be found in the Bible does not mean that the principle isn't there. Sorry, this is my gripe. I want to see some Christians who actually have a desire and drive to do as Christ wants them to!!! EEEEEKKKKK I just saw today that earthless was made moderator. I really dislike that site, I don't want to go there anymore. Another Christian was actually arguing with me that babies can't sin. I said that babies are born with original sin, or a sinful nature, but that does not mean they are capable of willfully sinning. The guy demands for me to show him in the Bible where it says that. I thought it was just obvious. (I don't know how Catholics believe about that exactly, so I'm sorry if that last comment was against what you all believe.)
MrsFrozen Posted December 16, 2003 Posted December 16, 2003 And this site is called Christianity.com? Yes.. For reasons of which I'm unsure... <_<

We do believe that there is original sin, and it is in Romans 5:12-19. I think you'll enjoy hanging with us, despite some of my rants and recipes for muffins made from dog food :rolleyes:
