[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And to your second point: Please point to something in the Catechism that says you can access Heaven even if you do not accept Jesus during your lifetime (and you have had the opportunity to do so, through being exposed to the Gospel).

I really think we need to root this conversation in official Church doctrine. [/quote]

Catechism paragraph 841 The Church's relationship with the Muslims. "The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day."

Yeah, they’re sort of grandfathered in because they also adhere to an Abrahamic religion. But what does it say about those who are atheists, Buddhists, Hindu, etc.? [/quote]

Look.  You asked me to point out something in the Catechism that says that people who are not baptized Catholic can still enter Heaven.  This is what came to mind.  I don’t have the Catechism memorized.  I’m just a mom driving kids around after school.  I have to make dinner now, and I have to do some work tonight after the kids go to bed, so I won’t be back.  
I hope that you find some of the answers that you are looking for.  And I do recommend CS Lewis “The Great Divorce” if you are looking for some thoughts on Heaven and Hell.  
I will keep you in my prayers today.

I hope that you consider that the Church isn’t [/quote]

Why are you praying for me? [/quote]

I don’t know.  I wish you well, peace, and a lightening of your burdens.  
It wasn’t a long prayer.  That was pretty much it.  [/quote]

Thanks, I guess? I just don’t know why you felt that I specifically needed to be prayed for. [/quote]

Do you know anyone who doesn’t?  I think you are being a little paranoid.  
[/quote]

DP here.  I do not need to be prayed for.  [/quote]

Well then, I hope that you have a time in your life that you deal with sickness, sadness, and problems so that you can better empathize with those that do not share in your good fortune.  [/quote]

I’m not PP, but you don’t get it — we don’t want your prayers, especially when we don’t ask for them. They reek of arrogance.[/quote]

Exactly.[/quote]
