Ellen DeGeneres is featured in ads for Cover Girl makeup. For years, she’s done her best to dress like a man and they put her in ads for make up!
I'm working my way through it. Here's my first favorite quote:
"Opponents of interracial marriage typically did not deny that marriage (understood as a union consummated by conjugal acts) between a black and a white was possible any more than proponents of segregated public facilities argued that some feature of the whites‐only water fountains made it impossible for blacks to drink from them. The whole point of antimiscegenation laws in the United States was to prevent the genuine possibility of interracial marriage from being realized or recognized, in order to maintain the gravely unjust system of white supremacy."
and my second:
"Real marriages are moral realities that create moral privileges and obligations between people, independently of legal enforcement. "
Not valid. What do you think the whole purpose of wxcommunication is all about? It was not just proests expelling heretics. It was also about shunning even of of priests ftom the congregation,s that profaned Gods will.
Is it s pdf document? I’m scared to click it if it, I’ve been having comp. problems and for some reason trying to open a pdf often causes a crash.
Defending the church against heresy is a completely different matter from avoiding sinners in general. Scripture is quite clear on the matter. If a brother, in other words a fellow believer, sins, we are supposed to help them repent and rejoin the fellowship. Correction should be done out of love, not anger, and the goal is to restore the brother. Unbelievers, on the other hand, haven’t repented and aren’t members of Christ’s church. The goal there isn’t to restore a believer so much as to make a sinner aware of their sinful nature and the salvation and forgiveness offered by Christ. Christ visited sinners and sat down to eat with them. If we don’t do the same, then sinners will never hear the word.
**I would love a Perry/Santorum ticket.**
So would I.
“Piers, I dont think the truth changes. I dont think right and wrong change based on different eras of time, Santorum responded.”
I heard this discussed on EWTN shortwave Catholic radio, and Santorum gave the perfect answer.
“The questions are always framed around those points: if you are against homos then you are for discrimination.”
We need some clever media types to point out the discrimination against folks with religious and secular morals.
Please add me to your Catholic list. Thank you.
