  • Re: See no evil, through a veil

    Ms Schmidt, you propose a false dichotomy with biased terminology intended to elevate your moral and intellectual position. 'Free vs oppressive system' is such an example. As I have mentioned elsewhere here on the Fray, true ''freedom'' is beyond human reach- it is a utopic ideal. It would arguably be more accurate to call the matter of wearing ...

  • Re: LDS Texas Children

    i'm not mormon. not even close but i hope everyone who values their freedom to worship will take a look around in their own lives and how their own beliefs have been scrutinized and tested. how far off do you all think we are from facing the same fate. this nation is moving from “a land under God” to one that puts believer’s out on the ...

  • Too Bad

    ''And what makes me heartsick is that's the kind of thing you say so you don't have to say the real reason is you won't vote for a black guy.'' Exactly.

  • Take a Lawyer to Church?

    How could such a ridiculous and all-encompassing contract be legally enforcible, when at the point of signing, people don't know what they're agreeing to, and are asked to sign away their rights to pursue recourse ever, in perpetuity, of anything the church does, even if the church itself is in breach of ''ordinary care''. There is no contract in ...

  • Popery

    One of my 1st memories, after the attack on Pearl Harbor, was a parish priest preaching a sermon on the Vatican's treaty with Italy's Fasciasts & how it helped the RC' minister to a war torn world. The church was in the Arcdioces of Cincinasty. The Archbishop was an avid analiguist for & to Pius 12. He even named a high school for ...

  • It's easier to judge than accept/ Truth doesn't need proof

    I am reposting this as I feel quite passionately about this. I hope you see the truth of my words and know they come from a good place. Thanks for reading and everyone that responded. ''I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community.'' -Barack Obama This statement really resonated with me as an ...

  • Mike's Buyers Guide to God - Part III

    Hard Copy Whatever it is you want in a God, you probably want it in writing. In the form of stone tablets, sheets or scrolls of papyrus, illuminated vellum manuscripts, gold plates or cheap paperbacks, most religions can provide you with their histories and beliefs, their do's and don'ts. If this were a buyers guide to cars or ...

  • Mike's Buyers Guide to God - Part II

    Unless you follow St. Augustine of Hippo or John Calvin, who, by the way, never even made Saint, let alone Patron Saint of Brewers as Augustine did, you have something called free will and, yes, that's an enormous burden as well as an empowering freedom. And, for God's sake, if you're firmly in that predestination camp, pass this on at ...

  • Mike's Buyers Guide to God - Part I

    Find the religion that's right for you by answering these two questions: What do I want from God? and What does God want from me? Whether you're a first time shopper or just no longer satisfied with your current spiritual affiliation, you need help. If you were looking for a new house or car your local bookstore's shelves would be ...

  • How would St. Matthew vote?

    There is one factor in this cogent analysis that might be factored into the equation. Of the casualties in Iraq, what percentage are from Catholic families as compared to the nation as a whole. I would expect that Catholics and Evangelicals are probably over represented. I have a niece whose son is serving his second tour in Iraq. But ...
