I do hope you are including some Catholic FReepers in your sick and hateful hearts category. Unfortunately, they aren’t hard to spot.

Will you let us know what they are when the book is finished?

I reject the heresy, as every true Christian should.

I wonder why I ever expected you to read what the fathers said. After all are blind.

OK, I saw it. But I’m sure I’ll forget it, so please remind us all again when it’s out. Blessings.

Thank you for your kind thoughts...my one consolation, in this life, is that I know for sure, I will be with my son again....

His concern was only for his family, after he died....he worried that we would spend our lives grieving for him, and that was something he did not want....he told us, when he died, he would be safe in the Lord’s good and kind care, of that he had no doubt...and that we should take our comfort from that knowledge, and that soon enough, we would be together again...

Sometimes these very ill and dying children have the greatest sense of peace and comfort, and it is they, who support their families, not us that support them....if you ask any mother or father, who has watched their child struggle and die from a horrid disease, and they will tell you the same thing...the child becomes the example, we should follow...

Again, thanks...

From what I can tell by their posts, Catholics on these threads believe what the Church professes, and therefore are not practicing heresy the way those outside the Church are, so my comments could not include them.

Again, personal attacks just demonstrate that you have nothing to offer of substance. Move along.

It really matters what you bring into your house. There can be demons and curses put on them. That includes statues, paintings, icons, figurines, jewelry, etc.

But there can be evil spirits behind those statues. That’s the real danger. Bringing them into one’s home can put curses on the people there without their knowing it.

Interesting that you believe objects can be cursed and do harm but, if you concur with most protestants, objects can not be blessed and provide blessings (eg. holy water, scapulars, statues).

This is part of the old Iconoclast heresy. That would indicate a belief that Satan has greater power than God.

I am very curious about this notion....

I once heard Benny Hinn say that when he was on a plane ride back from some overseas trip, that everyone on board that plane aside from himself, and his crew, was actually a demon inhabiting a human body....I found that kind of charge incredible, but he insisted upon this....if, and that is one great big if, his assertion was true, then demons are all around us at all times....I mean one could then assert, that every single thing that they brought into their house, regardless of what it might be, may be ‘cursed’, and that every single person they met, might be a ‘demon’....

Mary and the saints reside in heaven.

You agree with the Catholic Church.

They do not hear our prayers.

False.

"Beloved, flee from idolatry."

Done and done. Did you mean to falsely insinuate I was engaging in idolatry?

Right.

However, in this time/space dimension . . . Their bodies are counting the spots on the ceilings of their caskets . . . .

century after century.

Oh you poor baby. You must be tired and cranky from reading the testimony of the Fathers I posted.

That would explain why you didn't have the energy to refute what they said.

You and I both know I expected you to add your snide 2¢

Interesting to hear you say the WCF indictment of the Pope as the antichrist is snide, and worth but two cents.

You're really coming around.

But you have free will being the agent which facilitates this damnation.

No. The choices (misuses) of free will facilitate this damnation.

God wants us to choose Him.
