shut up...
exact words.
right back at ya
I am done with arguing with you.
You said I was quoted saying “Shut your mouth”. That is not true and you agreed with your last comment.
My comment was to shut the conversation and not the mouth.
-****
The Framers of the Constitution knew that free speech is the friend of change and revolution. But they also knew that it is always the deadliest enemy of tyranny.
RummyChick named herself correctly. So, it would be a GIANT waste of time to take what she says seriously.
Those miscreants will, someday, have to meet our Maker. Children are the MOST innocent and vulnerable. Child molesters existed, exist and will continue to exist until the end of time.
NO society is without them. NO profession is without them.
Our mass media has ALWAYS had it in for Catholic priests...mostly because priests CALL people out for their sins. Political correctness isn't part of their job.
Hey, holy person... actor. This site has rules, ping the person you are talking about.. stop this Kobe beef worship and there would be no push back. You want to bash someone use your private ping. This man was a serial adulterous player. His wife filed divorce papers once upon a time for his never ending adultery.
The path to sainthood is a long and tortuous one. Two miracles have to be verified...that one always interests me.
You can go to any Catholic website and ask that question.
There are FAR more saints than on a simple Catholic calendar. There are a MULTITUDE of saints for every day. The Catholic Church HAS been around a while.
Usually some country, area, parish or whatever has a favorite saint.
Mary is our lady of Guadalupe and is famous in Mexico because she appeared to that poor Indian peasant, Juan Diego.
Our Lady of Guadalupe, Spanish Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, also called the Virgin of Guadalupe, in Roman Catholicism, the Virgin Mary in her appearance before St. Juan Diego in a vision in 1531. The name also refers to the Marian apparition itself.
Me? Holy person...actor? What the heck are you babbling about?
For me Kobe Bryant was a pro basketball player. He died in a helicopter accident. His daughter was with him. He AND his daughter met our Maker that day.
It's a shame, that's all, especially for his daughter. HER life was over almost before it started.
Now, get off my back.
Paul penned that the saints (elect) were chosen by the Heavenly Father before the foundation of the world. Perhaps a word study as to what foundation of the world, really means, would set the time when and why some were chosen. Man has no collective or monetary say as to whom the saints are.. their tradition has no long term standing.
They might have been chosen but mere mortal Catholics got the sainthood on its path. Sainthood didn't grow out of the ground. Mere mortals had to propose it.
There USED to be a position in the Catholic Church called the "Devil's Advocate."
That position had the dubious position to point out whatever faults that the saint-to-be had. NO one was perfect and the Church had to decide if said saint-to-be would STILL be canonized.
Foundation of the world as we know it: I assume it meant the rise of homo sapiens.
If it weren't for the Church there would be no saints.
We are all saints and sinners...at one time or another.
I surely did not intend to confuse you..That is what that word babbling (Babel) and its various forms mean. Confusion... again rule of this site ... ping the person being talked about.
Shame? This thread is about 1 man and his church. Maybe make Kobe worship threads a caucus thread in the religion department.
You have precisely made my point.. mere mortals got it started.
Foundation of the world means casting down - overthrow. Refers to Genesis 1: 2. Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28 give the details.
The path to sainthood is a long and tortuous one.
Not in Scripture.
It doesn’t make it ok to do, but it does give you forgiveness from the Lord, just like the various sins you’ve committed. Surely you realize that repenting is one of the basic parts of Christian faith?
Whew! I was really worried about you confusing me. Not.
Shame? This thread is about 1 man and his church. Maybe make Kobe worship threads a caucus thread in the religion department.
Sounds like a good idea.
1. The altar could be a mini-sized basketball court, with all the lines a normal court would have.
2. The central figure on the altar could be Bryant making some cool three-pointer...in lieu of a cross.
3. His daughter could be off to the side as an "alternate" figure of worship, for teenagers.
4. The sound of bouncing basketballs could be the music for the service.
5. Those who help the service would be wearing basketball jerseys and shorts with HUGE tennis shoes.
6. Shaquille O'Neal's size 22 shoes could be a "side" altar.
7. The Harlem Globetrotters could be "guest" speakers.
I have a friend that was killed by a Mexican. Should a good Christian therefore have no love for Mexicans? Just asking!
Wow... holy, holy, holy...
actually it is. St Paul talked a lot about it being a ‘race’ and that to the best of his knowledge, he had nothing on his conscience, but he left it up to God. Isn’t that in scripture, or do you use some other bible?
"Scripture" did not pronounce sainthood...the Catholic Church did.
The Catholic Church put together Scripture, not the Protestants. There WERE no Protestants until CATHOLIC PRIEST FATHER MARTIN LUTHER broke from the Catholic Church in the 1540's--FIVE HUNDRED YEARS AGO.
The Catholic Church has been around since Jesus...2000 years ago.

How bout "aMorePerfectBrain"?
That would be relief after reading your befuddled statements.
