41 year old father of 2 , married to my most beautiful woman in the world...Love history , Biblical History , Ancient Egyptian , Roman Greek , all of it ..can't get enough...I have always been catholic ,but until now never knew the true meaning of who ,what ,where ,why ,& how....I have researched all of the Cliams most protestants make against the catholic Church & found them to be completly inacurate. I believe in the teaching of the Church ...Not in the People who attend the Church...the Priest tells me what the church teaches ...not what he thinks I should learn or how he see's it.. all other denominations are besed on the interpritations of individuals... It is all in the Catechism...So show me where it says I must Worship Statues , Saints , & Mary...We honor them with respect for they lead by example as Holy people.
This question is not Just for Catholics , But All Christians?
What will you do....

In a small border town in Texas, A Mexican immigrant worker was out checking the Ranch for the boss, he was driving down a road that cuts through the cow pasture and noticed a man in a suit on one knee using his hand to drink water from pasture stock pond. The migrant worker quickly stopped, rolled down the window and shouted:
Hola Amigo ! no tomes el agua , el estanque Caquita de la vaquita
Which means: " Hello, my friend ! Don't drink the water. The pond has cow **** in it.
The man shouted back : Yeah Yeah "I'm from New York , I'm just down here campaigning for Obama.
I can't understand you. Please speak in English."
The Mexican replied: "Use both hands."

According to The Daily Beast, writer Kevin Sessums interviewed Elisabeth Taylor for a cover story for POZ, an American magazine dedicated to AIDS activism. It was then the actress reportedly let him in on a secret about Dean, a close friend of hers.
"I loved Jimmy. I'm going to tell you something, but it's off the record until I die. OK? When Jimmy was 11 and his mother passed away, he began to be molested by his minister," she revealed to Sessums, who was sworn to secrecy.
The Religious Affiliation of
James Dean
great American actor
Dean was a Quaker (Religious Society of Friends). Dean went a few times to worship services of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with actress Terry Moore while he casually dated her.
From: Ellis Auburn, The Most Beautiful Woman in the World: The Obsessions, Passions, and Courage of Elizabeth Taylor, Harper Collins Publishers: New York, NY (2000), page 74:
On October 8 in Fairmount, three thousand mourners jammed the Black Creek Friends Church [a Quaker church] for Jimmy's [James Dean's] funeral, the largest in the town's history
6 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoGreat question about abortion . can you answer?
We are told the fetus is not a person so it's not murder if you have an abortion, By Law though, It clearly states that, if you kill a pregnant women and the "Fetus" dies they will charge you with 2 counts of murder!! .....Which is it !!?? Explain !
Oh, that's right, I forgot that the democrat/liberals like to make laws on what’s convenient for them!
28 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoPosted this a few Months ago.....when you read the bible do you realize?
Over 4500 thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel , "Pickup your shovels, mount your asses and your camels, and I will lead you to the Promised Land."
Nearly 75 years ago, In America, President Roosevelt's welfare program was, "Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, and light up a Camel, this is the Promised Land."
Today, the Government has no shovels, has taxed all our asses, raised the price of camels and mortgaged the Promised Land!

11 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoToday's Words of Wisdom?
An old man, a boy & a donkey were going to town.
The boy rode on the donkey & the old man walked.
As they went along they passed some people
who remarked it was a shame the old man
was walking and the boy was riding.
The man and boy thought maybe the critics were right,
so they changed positions.
Then, later, they passed some people who remarked,
'What a shame, he makes that little boy walk.'
So they then decided they'd both walk!
Soon they passed some more people who thought
they were stupid to walk when they had a
decent donkey to ride.
So, they both rode the donkey.
Finally, they passed some people
who shamed them by saying how awful to
put such a load on a poor donkey.
The boy and man figured they were probably right,
so they decide to carry the donkey.
As they crossed the bridge into town,
they lost their grip on the animal
and he fell into the river and drowned.
The moral of the story?
If you try to please everyone,
It could cost you yo-*** !

5 AnswersOther - Politics & Government1 decade agoChristians Have you read this before....Do you agree?
God Loves us so much that he Sent his Only son to Save us from eternal death. He endured pain and suffering as an outward sign so we would know that God loves us unconditionally, Infinitely. Jesus carried the cross as a sign to us that He will carry the burden of our pain and suffering,
Simon of Cyrene was asked to help Jesus carry the Cross when he fell. This was not random, God prepared a sign to us in that we must not expect Jesus will do it Alone. We must love him back. We must be strong, our trust must be strong, Our faith should strengthen us. Not to just throw our pain and suffering on Jesus shoulders and then leave it all up to him.
A strong person knows how to keep their life in order. Even with tears in their eyes, they still manage to say "I'm ok" with a smile. God is good. God knows our sadness, hard times will soon be over. If you truly believe and Love God , what more could any man or woman need.
