Is this an 'atta boy' or a 'shame on you'? http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11968426 A priest refused to give a Lesbian communion at her mother's funeral. Is this an 'atta boy' or a 'shame on you'?<br /><br />The priest deserves an attack boy for showing great love at a great price. People like to paint God's love as a sunshiny frolic through a field of wildflowers, and it would be, if humans didn't want to rip out all the flowers and shove them down each others throats.

You might find why I don't believe in yours.<br /><br />Fun, I don't believe in other gods because if one defines the singular term god as Jew, Christian, or Muslim does, it is a logical fallacy that there could possibly be more than one. This is the reason that I am not a polytheist. Monotheism is philosophically coherent. Monotheism has also been... Sun, 04 Mar 2012 22:15:26 -0800 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11932474 Answer to No Republican is brave enough to take on Rushbaugh and slap his wrist. Why? Is he their Fierce Leader?

Why? http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11911715 How many folks with college degrees will vote for Santorum? Why?<br /><br />Perhaps only those with college degrees should be allowed to vote.

Since when do men get pregnant?<br /><br />Rosie, This question is completely ridiculous. You have put forward a false premise in order to stir people up. The Congressional Committee, if you read its stated purpose, was to discuss whether or not the government mandates in the healthcare law are a violation of the conscience clause and...

Conservatism in action?<br /><br />What a joke! Parent involvement, personal motivation, and a secure home life, are the leading indicators in a child's educational achievement.

Most Christians recognize that the bible is neither a science text nor history text. While it does lay out that God is God over science, and it does relay historical events, the... Sat, 19 Nov 2011 08:58:02 -0800 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11491668 Answer to Should animals have the same right as humans to live? http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11487982 Should animals have the same right as humans to live?<br /><br />People are philosophically off base here. Animals and the environment are under the care of humans. Laws to protect them are not laws to make sure that their rights are not being violated. Such laws, looked at from the proper perspective, are laws to make sure that humans live up to their...

How should the Catholic church begin to make this right?<br /><br />My favorite part of this article is the section about the nuns pressuring unwed mothers to give up their children. Did you know that there was a priest who stole from the church, attempted to stir bloody riots in a major city, and then eventually killed himself after willfully participating in...

The really sad part is that when faced with a church teaching that seems unreasonable to them, they do not investigate the reasons for these teachings, they merely disregard them. They mistakenly assume that an infinite God and... Sat, 15 Oct 2011 21:02:22 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11351754 Answer to A Christian woman told me "the Bible contains ALL the answers". How is this possible? http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11333812 A Christian woman told me "the Bible contains ALL the answers". How is this possible?<br /><br />If she meant the answer philosophically, then she was following a long tradition including some of the greatest minds in history. Jesus Christ is the answer to all of the questions of humanity. These questions aren't questions that can be contained by a specific place and time. They are... Tue, 11 Oct 2011 10:09:21 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11333812 Answer to What are your objections to capital punishment? http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11251435 What are your objections to capital punishment?<br /><br />I object to capital punishment on the grounds that no person or government has the right to take the life of a human person innocent or guilty. (This assumes that the taking of the life is the goal of the aggressor.) This would go for any war where the primary intent was to take the lives of the... Wed, 21 Sep 2011 23:43:11 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11251435 Answer to No physical evidence/7 eyewitnesses recanted/yet the Troy Davis execution in Georgia is moving forward. Is Georgia even worse than Texas? http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11251407 No physical evidence/7 eyewitnesses recanted/yet the Troy Davis execution in Georgia is moving forward. Is Georgia even worse than Texas?<br /><br />Let me start by saying that I am fundamentally opposed to capital punishment in a society that can safely and effectively house criminals for life. That being said, from what I have read there is compelling evidence that this man is guilty of killing a police officer. According to the reports I...

My 4 year old niece really wanted me to tell her a secret. After she begged for about 5 minutes I agreed, but told her she could not tell anyone else. I whispered that into her ear. She covered her nose and ran off.

How does one know that they feel like a man or a woman? What does this even mean? Most people would tell you that as their hormones have fluctuated during their life the way that they feel and respond to... Tue, 20 Sep 2011 09:51:22 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11245707 Answer to Ok I was just wondering. In the bible it says your supposed to love everyone, even your enemy.

So does it mean you have to love the devil?<br /><br />This question highlights an important and common misunderstanding of how to read and interpret the Bible. The biblical concept of love is not closely linked with the idea of love today. The biblical principle of love is to desire and act toward the good of another. It includes encouraging them...

How is this not cannibalism? http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/11082228 To Catholics: You believe that the Eucharist is the body and blood of your God. How is this not cannibalism?<br /><br />Since you are familiar with the doctrine I will be brief. Cannibalism has to do with accidents not substance or essence.

This is juvenile. It is an insane way of thinking. Let me illustrate with an equally ridiculous question. Do you want...

Remember children, atheism isn't a religion. http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/10358874 Which religion has killed the most people? Remember children, atheism isn't a religion.<br /><br />The religion of relativism practiced by such people as the asker of this question has clearly killed more people than any other. A worship of science has also been responsible for the killing of millions of people. If you make Hitler and the Japanese empire responsible for all the deaths that...

The LDS view of the early christian church is highly inaccurate. I have also read works by Mormon theologians and apologists who claim that the early Church was corrupted by the Greek philosophies. This is often cited...

Hold their hand. And politely tell them that you are not going to risk the fires of hell for some heathen who is so obviously headed in that direction.

However, the people that put the teachings into action are fallible sinners. Fri, 04 Feb 2011 09:59:36 -0800 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/10273649 Answer to When does life begin? At conception?

At 40?<br /><br />As an orthodox member of the Catholic Church, I find it offensive that Mr. O'Brien so publicly supports something that the Catholic Church adamantly opposes. Mr. O'Brien acts as though the Church's teaching on abortion is subject to change. He cites St. Augustine as an authority on the subject....

(not mine, but my neighbors' dog) http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/10210486 Is it animal cruelty to keep a dog outside in freezing weather with only a chain, dirt yard, and a non-insulated dog house? (not mine, but my neighbors' dog)<br /><br />As far as I am concerned, the chain is the only thing preventing the dog from living as animals have for thousands of years. Unchain the dog and it would probably be perfectly fit to survive a normal dog life.
