Not everything in the Bible is true...

amusing that you consider this a "battle"...

[Psalm136:2]

Nice, so majority of catholics around the world kissing and worshiping cheap statues and crucifixes can have a party in hell as well...

This is just one of many forms of idolatry.

Oh yeah, doesn't matter if you commit genocide, just ask for forgiveness and all is well.

Provided you truly repent, yes, you'll be saved. But still, you have to pay for your crimes. Remember the 2 criminals at the right and left side of Christ? One asked for forgiveness, he was forgiven but he still payed for his crimes.

it's also enjoyable to read posts na puro baluktot ang katwiran

except pag sobrang labo na...then it's just a :headache:

[Psalm136:2]

Actually, that's the big thing with the Catholic Protestant split:

According to the Protestants, the Catholics will go to hell for worshipping their idols. Worship of Saints and the Mother Mary are actually against the original strictures of the Church, justified as "worship by proxy" - i.e.: You pray to the Saints to pray to God for you.

Of course, the more pragmatic reason for this are the pagan roots of most converted Catholics. Catholicism has a habit of incorporating Pagan rituals and traditions into itself, in order to make the transition to Catholicism easier.

One such incorporation was the Saints. We have a different patron saint for each occassion, profession and environment, just as the Pagans had a different God or patron spirit for every occassion.

Another is Easter, closely related to the equinox and pagan fertility rituals (did you never wonder what the bunny was for? ) I'm not sure about Christmas, but I think it also has some relation to early pagan rituals... I just have to dig it up.

Of course, the Protestants still celebrate Easter and Christmas, even though they don't condone statues and worship of Saints... so it's kind of hypocrital... but at least some of them allow women ministers (the tradition of not allowing women priests in the Catholic Church is just... ridiculous in this day and age).

According to the Catholics, the Protestants will go to hell for following a false God. Well, at least that's the gist of what I get every time I sit through a sermon in Church where the Priest is an old hardliner... I guess it all evens out.

Yeah, you got it right.

[Psalm136:2]

siguro naman there's nothing wrong with discussing this. I thought this is a forum, to share and to contest ideas and beliefs. personally, I am hoping na umabot sa page 50 ;)

besides, it's so enjoyable to battle it out with non-believers.

What makes you think they all go to heaven?

Because those atheists or unbelievers do good, do charity works, don't commit crimes, etc. should be good enough for entry to heaven.

You don't think so? Because that is not what the bible says?

[Zeus]

To me... bible, koran etc. are religious tools that guide people, restore order, decency,and to transform the attitudes of people to be good.

uyyy!!!! makaka-50 pages na......


:popcorn:

[niky]

50 pages? Is that a tsikot record? Give it a few more months, and it'll be as long as the Bible itself.

[theveed]

Bwehehehe... Newer Testament.

So... he turns in his former comrades to try to get pardoned? If he died saving the world while trying to save the world, maybe he's going to Catholic Limbo... or maybe an extended stay in Purgatory, say, about five thousand years.

If he died saving the world while trying to merely get himself out of jail or a death sentence? He's still going to hell. :lol:

Bailiff... next case.

but you cant deny that he saved the world, saved a lot of us. perhaps, he even did more than us do-gooders in a lifetime. and risked/sacrificed his life in the process.
