Re: "Good Friday" and Matthew 12:40

Ok, but remember the part about humility.

A couple of internet dudes are right and all the Orthodox Church fathers, and Aquinas, etc. are wrong?

Re: Questions about Communion / Lord's Supper

In response to questions from the last two posts (and I would think this is boring to most folks but I have nothing to hide)… My point about lines is many Catholics were quite concerned if they were worthy to take communion (long confession lines and short communion lines ) where as today many hardl...

Re: "Good Friday" and Matthew 12:40

You are all kidding right?

Friday = day 1
Saturday = day 2
Sunday = day 3

This is complex?

Since 325AD They have been saying this in the Nicene Creded, but a couple of dudes on an internet site have more insight?

Re: Questions about Communion / Lord's Supper

Max is the last person, ok, make that the se one to last person I want to debate anything with. Just think, how exactly can Communion be “required” every week? One nice thing about being Catholic is the anonymity. You can go to ANY parish church in the world to meet your Sunday obligation. How do th...

Re: Questions about Communion / Lord's Supper

My God, just when I thought JudMac could not possibly lose more credibility he quotes Jack Chick. I do not understand the confusion of the other posts. Maybe I am missing something. Catholics are required to attend Mass on Sunday (or the Sat night vigil mass) and holy days of obligation which vary f...

Re: Catholic to Anabaptist

I th8nk you are missing my po8nt. I am making no judgments about anyone converting from or to any group. My point simply is drawing conclusions about “Catholics who converted” is simply doubly inaccurate. NOT using the definition any Catholic that converts isn’t really Catholic. Rather, recognize a ...

Re: Catholic to Anabaptist

I think those of you who have never been Catholic fail the understand the difference in how both American society and individuals use the qualifier Catholic different from most other religions. Most of the former Catholics I met in Anabaptist circles were not Catholic in the same way I was, They wer...

Re: Catholic-Anabaptist ecumenical dialogue

This is another completely silly thread. What possible dialogue could there be? First, unlike the RCC talking to the Russian Orthodox or Coptic church there is simply no one (because that is everyone) in the Anabaptist world to talk to there is no one to talk to. And about what? As others have said,...

Re: Lent and Ash Wednesday

I am truly shocked.

You do not consider their verbal admission they wished to shock and challenge their neighbors by working on Good Friday as wrong?
So, you agree that putting up signs such as “baby killer” at an abortion clinic is a good move? Sheesh
