[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it were as easy as switching churches, yes. [/quote] It's not just church, it is family and communities and schools and traditions. I have changed churches when I don't like the priests, yea that was easy, there are about 5 <15 minutes from my house.[/quote] leaving all of the above is not uncommon when its a way to avoid association with child sexual abuse and strictures against abortion and birth control. You can find the good things in lots of places -- but for the bad things, you need the Catholic church. [/quote] Actually you can find bad things everywhere. Child sex abuse is in the public schools. I see more good being done by the Catholic Church than any other single organization. What other organization has as many free private schools in DC? You can't have all the good without the bad in any single organization. Sorry you hate the Catholics. [/quote] yes - bad things are everywhere, and bad things are systemic and covered up in the catholic church. [/quote] As a catholic , always remember the words of Christ . " if the world hates you , always remember it hated me first." We all know in that Christ is opposed to abortion. For Pete's sake, when you die your soul will be as helpless as that of a fetus, completely dependent on the mercy of God... How would you like scissors to the brain or worse? The more the world attacks you for belief in life and mercy you can be sure you are a Christian . Being a true Christian will bring suffering. Jesus said his return will be to judge and separate , it will be difficult to argue the merits of fetal holocaust.[/quote] Speaking of fetal holocausts, what about the majority of all conceptions that don't make it to birth for natural reasons -- a big chunk of them in the extremely early stage when a woman doesn't even know she's pregnant? That's a pretty grim rate, not sure why any god would have made human reproduction so inefficient if he felt every zygote is sacred. If the studies that have shown this are correct (this one suggests 30% rate loss before an ovum implants in the womb, then a 30% loss once the fertilized egg has implanted: http://humupd.oxfordjournals.org/content/8/4/333.full.pdf ) then that would suggest that the majority of souls in heaven belong to fertilized eggs, blastocycsts, zygotes, embryos, and fetuses that never made it past the 12th week of pregnancy. If you believe in souls and heaven, don't you think that's a bit odd? Really, mother nature (or god if you will) is by far the biggest abortifacient. [/quote]
