Hi Tom, I hope you realised this is interview thread for a particular person. Its not about you, or how you felt. For now, i wait for reply to my question, however they might appear or misunderstood. Im new around here and finding ways.
i fully understand your comment. My questions willl lead to informations that i been asking muslims in another forum. I thought i might find it here.
Before i posted, i checked the classification of the forum, kitchen sink.
Also, i am representing myself, not the ignosticdom. I apologize...
Wow, findings in science has proven that some teachings of the clergies are simply wrong.
Another question: Why dont we find the whole priestdome and nuns to be diabetic and cancer stricken? Are these simply unreported?
Lets put numbers into the equation.
What are the advises sought from the priests and bishops by those about to be married?
Spiritual?
Personal human relationship?
Sexual?
Family planning?
Child raising?
If its true that its a sin and we will go to hell for doing it, then what is your worry? We will all be there! Mom, Dad, brothers, sisters....everyone. Yes, including those who lied to you that they dont do it.
Not always true. Until now, i could not contain the bigbang theory thus i refuse to hold it. I dont believe in many concepts of god, but i am here. Its all that matter for now.
In Manila, even to these days, seeking the blessing (approvals) by parents and relatives is seen as virtueous. Seeking the advises of celibate priests and bishops on marriage and family concerns are encouraged.
