We are the Body of Jesus Christ.That's a statement that I haven't read before. Could you expound on it a little? It is a concept which is certainly foreign to Protestant theology.

One great piece of advice I was given lately was not to engage in conversation with demons.I assume that means you do not like what I am saying.
Truth is often difficult, especially if it means we have to reconsider what we have been taught to believe.

Protestants believe that the church, made up of the elect is the body of Christ.

... at Mt. Athos right now there are several spiritual fathers, elders, who are known to bilocate.Kewl.
The newsletter from our curriculum provider had a piece about a teenage boy, one of the students, who was observed to bilocate. He was seen at his church at the same time as he was being killed by a car on his street. Or something like that. They said he was a very holy young man.

**Italy’s Padre Pio ‘faked his stigmata with acid’ **
What a lunatic article.
The book I finished reading about Padre Pio by Ruffin speaks of observation of him on long intervals. I don’t remember the exact hours right now.
Sometimes people were with him constantly.
Another thing...........as he got closer and closer to death, the stigmata disappeared slowly. When he did die, he had no traces of any stigmata, any scars — nothing was there.
Acid would have left indications of burning.
Like I said above, what a lunatic story.

The new allegations were greeted with an instant dismissal from his supporters. The Catholic Anti-Defamation League said Mr Luzzatto was a liar and was "spreading anti-Catholic libels"..."We would like to suggest to Mr Luzzatto that he dedicates his energies to studying religion properly." Typical response.

Dear Tiki, I will pray for your mother.
May angels lead her into Paradise;
may the martyrs receive her at her coming
and lead her to the holy city of Jerusalem.
May a choir of angels receive her,
and with Lazarus,
who once was poor,
may she have eternal rest.
Amen.
To: Quix
Reason and historical facts dont seem to have any impact. This perplexes me. Are you not aware that Bible-believing Christians have asked the saints and angels to pray with and for them since at least a millennium before the Protestant era? On what authority do you say that your personal opinion trumps all the centuries of Christian belief and practice?

Catholics pray to saints in the same manner I am posting to you or I talk to my neighbor. In essence, praying and talking are essentially the same. When we ask for something, we do it in Jesus' name or God's name. That saint or even someone else that has died and is in heaven can ask God for a favor for you.

You Catholics are saying that praying to Jesus is to no effect. I'm surprised at you, Tolkein.
This is untrue, and a slander against Catholics. It is contradicted by every possible source of Catholic teaching: the Bible, the Fathers, the Councils, the encyclicals, the catechisms, the daily practiuce of Catholics --- everything.
And it is against God's commandment for you to bear this false witness against your Catholic neighbor.

And may Our Lady bless you with her maternal love |
In the name of the Father, and of the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen

The clarity of Scriptures regarding the utter Supremacy of Christ is more than sufficient for me
to trump anything else mortal man might concoct.
