And the rest of the saying is AFSD***
Nope, your acronym is meaningless for internet shortcut use.
Everybody knows what GMTA means. Same as GMLC Grate Minds Love Cheeze.
I did google afsd though for images and got a naked picture.
I haven't finished schooling you yet.
As I have said, I will reveal them when I have sufficiently posted the truth about the origins/beginnings of Catholicism.
Here is something for you:
the year 381 — First Council of Constantinople. This council amended and ratified the Nicene Creed, resulting in the version used by Christian churches around the world.Here's some sites you can look at on your own for homework.
www.adherents.com, www.bbc.co.uk/religion, The Oxford Handbook of Global Religions (2006), The Encyclopedia of Religion (2005), the Religious Movements Page at the University of Virginia, The Cambridge Illustrated History of Religions (2002), and the Encyclopedia of World Religions (1999)
You need to teach them to cut and paste!!
Of course not, but with their HAND copied books, libraries throughout the world, Monasteries,parishes, schools...they certainly advanced it.....the problem was not the inability to read, it was the fact that reading materials were not readily available. One reason that you need not spend too much time studying how to read Swahili is that there isn't a lot of Swahili material to be read. Libraries at that time were in major cities, full of HAND WRITTEN manuscripts, unavailable to only a few. They were extremely important because they did keep the written word alive, but until the average person could avail themselves (after the printing press)they were not of great day to day benefit to the public.
THEY WERE GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Two different commands....#1. You shall not make, #2. you shall not worship.....Moses made, but did not worship....Catholics make, but do not worship.
Hey you folks have to own ole Lloyd. He left the Catholic Church long before the snake handling. This one is on the Anabaptists.
Probably....never knew one of them.....and they certainly can't be my sins.
I won’t bother reading anything from you that doesn’t have the citation prominently located. If they are legitimate there is no reason to hide them.
Music....dress....OSAS....if they basically agree on everything (and they probably do on most) why don't they join hands, become a powerful and influential group, and stop opposing each other???
Others may be interested in what you expressed you wanted to know, but now don't.
I sent you the citations if you didn't see them no problem.
I told you I would post the information but would not go by your “rules”
History is history.
The body of Christ is not about being powerful and influential. It’s about being a part of the Kingdom of God
There is no opposition within but a lot of power.
The influence is from God and is passed around among other believers. You mentioned 3 things out of 30,000. That’s not too bad considering. Mostly not affecting spiritual beliefs so good try but no cigar.
Christians hand out in that giant car mentioned in the NT.
Regardless of what the motivation is, I have to admit that the comment raised questions in my mind, so it motivated me to do a little research on the issue.
Beyond what is in the Catechism, Humanae vitae seems to answer the questions raised.
Here is a link to a summary of the Encyclical:

I found reading them to be both interesting and informative.
Peace,

Disagree. I’ve had catholic posters want some of my threads pulled just because they didn’t like the content.
Um, Jesus gave a little prophecy that Paul fulfilled when he was shipwrecked and the asp came from the logs on the fire and bit him ... I don’t think Jesus was telling His disciples to handle snakes as a ritual and drink poisonous liquids as a proof source.
King James Bible
And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.--John 1:5
“Christians hand out in that giant car mentioned in the NT.”
Should have been Christians HANG out...
1 artificially blocks a natural bodily function, 1 is used when that function probably won't take place...HUGE difference.
Just stop for a minute and think about it for a second....if there was nothing in your town for the average person to read.....why and how would you learn to read??????sheesh
