John Cornelius, who is married, will be ordained this weekend -- and sex-free life begins
John Cornelius will be ordained a Roman Catholic priest this weekend — and with the blessing of his wife they're giving up their sex life. Cornelius, a father of three, will become the first married Roman Catholic priest in New York — and Sharyl, his wife of 33-years, has agreed to the whole celibacy thing.
“We have decided to do that voluntarily,” Cornelius told WGRZ-TV. “I have always had friends that are Roman Catholic priests and I appreciate what they've given up to serve God and the priesthood.”
Cornelius, 64, is a former Episcopalian priest who converted three years ago to Catholicism. He said his old church had gotten too liberal for him.
by the way, it is Catholics, not Protestants, that came up with something called an ANNULMENT to get out of a marriage.
HaVE YOU MODIFIED YOUR HOMEPAGE YET?
Iscool I’m a Catholic but I’m leaving to join a Baptist church...
If one day claim to be Pentecostal, the next day Messianic Jewish, the next day Mormon, the next day Modalist and continuously practice taqqiyah, then...
by the way, it is Catholics, not Protestants, that came up with something called an ANNULMENT to get out of a marriage a divorce without calling it a divorce and admitting to sinning.
Is it any wonder why the practice is called "Catholic Divorce"? Apparently, the "pretty involved procedure" is not so much if you have enough money and/or influence.
Disingenuous? It’s downright disgusting the ways they find to finesse God’s clear commandments.
And then they get on their moral high horse about birth control.
Of course, considering the lack of large Catholic families any more, we can see that how THAT is going, too.
Gentlemen, we must stay prepared.

Don't forget to load, first. Use a funnel if you have to, but by all means stay on "ready". BRASS...breathe, relax, aquire (get a sight picture), steady, squeeze.
Subject will be sleepy after two cereal boxes. That is the "time".

Be careful. Possibly practice on the dog, or your mother-in-law (if she is willing). Whether she's willing or not, take the precaution of providing safety glasses. You could shoot somebodies eye out with that thing.
what was the name of the Catholic curch that Joseph and mary were married in.......oh wait
there were VERY FEW books or documents to be had by the general public...there was really no need to learn to read because there was nothing to read. As education advanced in the years following Christs establishment of the Catholic church, monastaries were founded throughout the world, and through them, education and thus literacy spread widely. The Catholic church is largely responsible for the spread of knowledge and literacy from the time of Christ to the present.
yes, I mean could have.....Christ was his son......do you think that Christ, knowing that baptism was absolutely necessary for salvation would not have either baptized him or merely willed him baptized.you seem to have little confidence in what Christ did and what He could do. You also did not finish my statement as mI stated that if he were not baptized, he would be judged as were all Jews at he time....I'm still right.
BINGO.....in your world yes.....in the Catholic Church..NO
think before you leap......this was a society two thousand years ago.....do you seriously think that the Bereans checked existing scripture.....and if so, ....how did they possibly do thsat.....sheesh
“knowing that baptism was absolutely necessary for salvation”
And of course, water baptism is not necessary for salvation.
"Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so."
Do you seriously think Luke lied or God lied when He inspired this account?????

“there were VERY FEW books or documents to be had by the general public...there was really no need to learn to read because there was nothing to read.”
I just posted a list of 27 1st century authors, whose works still survive. Sorry the links don’t work, but you could look them up on Wikipedia.
There was a language called Greek that was widespread at the time. It was only one of many languages that were written down at the time.
no one ever said that they would not be able to get the old testament scriptures. Studying Scripture, not handing down fairy tales by word of mouth.
you do realize, I assume, is that is exactly where scripture came from..... if you feard the word of God, at that time, you did not record the words on your cell phone, you didn't even write it down (you couldn't write), but you remembered what had been said and PASSED IT ALONG, by word, to others in your family or circle of friends......that is tradition which became scripture....just think about it for a moment
