    What Exactly Defines: "born-again"?

    I think the thirst was more Spiritual. I had always gone to Catholic mass before...done the routine. I was indifferent towards religion. Didn't really care too much if there was a God or not. I was always told there was a God by teachers, priests, friends, parents, etc. But it just wasn't the...

    What Exactly Defines: "born-again"?

    It's extremely hard to explain. I had a Baptist friend talk to me about this strange 'born again' concept. I never really understood what in the name of the Lord she was talking about until I had experienced myself. On paper, I had always been a Roman Catholic, but as a young lad of 14-15...

    Do you hate God?

    I'd have to disagree there. You'll find that many moderate religious adherents support homosexuals and do not discriminate based on their beliefs...me being one of them. Rather, it is the extreme religions (or more often people who take religion to the extreme) that cause the problems. People...

    Image of Muhammad (pbuh)

    Personally, I'm Roman Catholic and in this respect, Roman Catholicism is the polar opposite of Islam. Roman Catholicism is all about images and symbols. Growing up in this faith, I can see where it's coming from - the reason behind all of it. However, I can also see the Muslim viewpoint. I grew...

    What does the Bible say about conversion?

    Thank you for all your answers. This is very much appreciated! :)

    Why is homosexuality a sin

    Sorry, but reading through all 63 pages is quite time consuming. If it has already been debated, than disregard my post.

    What does the Bible say about conversion?

    If she wanted me to pray for him to lead a better life, being more Christ-like (though not necessarily a Christian...non-Christians can be Christ-like, too) - I'd do it in a flash. But she told me to pray that he "finds Christianity". That, in my opinion, means praying for his conversion. I...

    Why is homosexuality a sin

    My apologies if this has already been posted, but in Leviticus 20:13 it says "If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them." The Bible explicitly calls for the slaying of all...

    What does the Bible say about conversion?

    My friend spoke to me just yesterday. She couldn't stop crying, so I asked her what was wrong. She said that her boyfriend doesn't know God. Apparently this fellow isn't a Christian and this is really upsetting her. She asked me to pray to God that he 'finds God and becomes a Christian'. I...

    Why certain religions should be discontinued.

    A damn good point, I must say. Every side has committed atrocities. Yes, there are Islamic terrorists...but for the sake of a few, that is no reason to discontinue an entire religion. I mean the vast majority of Muslims are not terrorists. Nobody has a right to dictate what others believe in. No...

    Just as I am.. Oh Lamb of God I come

    Wow, *Paul*...that is certainly one way of looking at it. I agree 100% with that (granted, I only had time to scan it it through, though). It's definitely a good interpretation.

    Why should i be Catholic?

    I understand what Baptism does...but I just feel a child should be able to choose what church he/she is part of at the right moment in their life. I grew up and am always around hardcore Catholics who kind of, in a sense, forced Catholicism on me. When I was younger, I didn't particularly...

    Why should i be Catholic?

    Well, you see...there is more to it than these 6 questions. These are just some of the main points. I have a couple questions about the solas...but I'll save those for another time.

    Why should i be Catholic?

    :) You are clearing things up. So, we've established the Rosary, Mary, and saints are not essential to the Catholic faith, although they should certainly be respected. I anticipate a similar answer for the Holy Spirit Cushion question. But...God answers all prayers, regardless of whether we pray...

    Why should i be Catholic?

    Thank you for your patience in dealing with my questions lol. Point taken. I can ignore the Rosary completely.
