Are you too cowardly to state your faith? Guess you're about as Catholic as Luther.

Actually I've stated my faith many times on this board.

I believe all the fundamental tenants of Biblical Christianity, which makes me a fundamentalist Christian..though I probably don't fit the stereo-type.

I am non-demonational and have attended all kind of churches including Pentecostal, Baptist and Catholic.

I don't agree with some things taught by certain churches including some Catholic teachings.
Does that make me anti-Catholic?
I don't think so.

I've also opposed Catholic bashers who reject their faith. In my opinion Catholics believe the fundamentals of Christianity and are genuine Christains.

Never the less I disagree with the decision of this Catholic school to deny this little girl entry.

....your wrong Jorge. This is a Pandora's Box that should be kept locked, lest our Catholic School's become as gruesome as the public schools!

Soon , in the name of diversity they would have to change religion classes to Mary was a lebo and Jesus a transvestite!(sp). Think about it!!!

Why don't you take your curiosity and actually study what Catholicism teaches. You cannot be kind and practice Charity without practicing justice. You cannot live and practice a cafeteria of theological beliefs and personal convictions with a wash of cultural nuances thrown in and believe you understand the position of the Catholic church. The Church's stand is Scriptural. It is not cultural and it isn't a personal view. It is highly unpopular because it will not change. Homosexual sex, Cloning, abortion, infanticide, euthanasia, contraception, stem-cell research from a fetus will never be approved. In the face of all of it, and in the face of some laity and priestly disobedience, the Church will not change.

Tolerance is not the benchmark. The Crucifix is tolerence and forgiveness for every insult in the history of humanity. That tolerance does not extend to continued sin. How can anyone continue to sin and live in sin knowing that this sin they personally commit is in God's Eternal Now ripping the beard off Christ's face, scourging His back to shreds and nailing His hands to that cross?
