You don't have to be mentally ill to be a Democrat ... but it would certainly help.

Thank you Dredge for the references but they do not address my questions. For the sake of argument I am accepting the fact of Satan and demons. It is the actual mechanism by which Satan tempts or controls I want to know, and how he seems to be everywhere at once.
I would like to know such things too, but such knowledge is beyond human capacity.
It's like trying to understand how God performs miracles or hears our prayers ... no human can possibly know or understand such things.

I would like to believe that is just a nasty rumour ... but if it's true, it's demonic.

Re: Topic Synopsis
candle2 writes:
Cardinal Gibbons, in Faith of Our Father's, 92nd ed., p.89
freely admits:
"You may read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and
you will not find a single line authorizing the sanctification
of Sunday."
"The scriptures enforce the religious observance of
Saturday, a day which we (the Catholic Church) never
sanctify."
You'd do well to take heed of what else Cardinal Gibbons wrote in that chapter:
"the Scriptures alone do not contain all the truths which a Christian is bound to believe, nor do they explicitly enjoin all the duties which he is obliged to practice. Not to mention other examples, is not every Christian obliged to sanctify Sunday and to abstain on that day from unnecessary servile work? Is not the observance of this law among the most prominent of our sacred duties? But you may read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and you will not find a single line authorizing the sanctification of Sunday. The scriptures enforce the religious observance of
Saturday, a day which we never sanctify.
The Catholic Church correctly teaches that our Lord and his Apostles inculcated certain important duties of religion which are not recorded by the inspired writers ...
We must, therefore, conclude that the Scriptures alone cannot be a sufficient guide and rule of faith because they cannot, at any time, be within the reach of every inquiries, because they are not of themselves clear and intelligent even in matters of the highest importance, and because they do not contain all the truths necessary for salvation."

Re: Religion & Politics
Taq writes:
We atheists will point out that our universe is indistinguishable from one where there is no God.
Fascinating logic.
What makes you qualified to know what a godless universe looks like?
Please explain how a godless universe differs from a universe that includes God.
If there was an all powerful God who claimed to love us then this is not the universe we would expect to see. That's the point.
The point is, you atheists ignore what the Bible says about Original Sin destroying the world that the first humans (Adam and Eve) experienced.
You atheists also ignore the promise God makes in the Bible to provide a Paradise that his children will enjoy forever.
Atheists like you simply don't want God to exist, so why bother inventing fake excuses to reject belief in him?

God doesn't ask you to understand it, but to believe it. Faith is not a science project ... and neither is the supernatural.

Re: Trin Trinity Trin Trinity Trin Trin Teree ©
You can't "science" the two miracles that I experienced ... mainly coz science is way too puny to explain the supernatural. Grow up and stop talking ignorant nonsense.

Re: Trin Trinity Trin Trinity Trin Trin Teree ©
The shallow little mind of the atheist can't rise above the physical plane (science) to the much higher plane of the supernatural (God). In that sense, atheists can be regarded - and indeed, pitied - as intellectually retarded.

Theodoric, you do believe in magic.

You believe in the magic of chemicals creating life.

You believe in fairy tales.

Your fairy tale begins by "long ago and far away."

OR,

"Did you hear about the frog who turned into a prince."
Well said, candle2! Atheists like Theodorkic believe in magic and superstition ... but call it "science". Most of the scientific community believe the same fairy tale - that mud magically turned into human beings - and then teach it to little children. It'll be funny if it wasn't so pathetically stupid and shameful.
