Nice avatar!

Just got back from New York it was awsome we stood right on the steps of St. Patrick's. I can't believe how lucky we were. The tickets we got were given to us by the legionary philosophers so they were really good. My one friend that went with our group got within 10 feet of the Pope. It was so amazing. By the way I love your new pics. Have you checked out my video yet. I plan on uploading a buch more lotr and maybe some tinwhistle ones I just have to find the time.

Thank you so much for the wonderful compliment, Joshua. I think the only way into the group is to receive an invite from the group creator. I'll send him an email and let him know you are interested. God bless! :)

True and False Conversion added: 27 days ago
I can't help but feel sad for the people in this video. Their "logic" shows how confused they are. I'm not saying that I am wise or knowledgeable, but praise be to God for putting in my heart an unquenchable desire to know Him and seek Him. I believe that all people have the necessary faith, but of those who seek, most run the sprint, not the marathon. 2 TIM 4:7-8

Interview with a Pro-Choice... added: 35 days ago
I hope this "student" stays in school. At 1:35 she says "you can't legislate ethics" But isn't that exactly what society does when we declare we cannot murder eachother, steal from eachother, or generally harm eachother in any way? If a bank robber doesn't see anything wrong with stealing, can we as a society impose our values on that bank robber and convict him and lock him up? We can, and we do. That may seem more black and white to someone like this "student" but apparently some people are more confused than I am. Our society would be chaotic if we did not impose our beliefs on others. Imposing beliefs on others STOPPED SLAVERY! Slave owners were also saying similar things, "If you don't like slavery, don't own slaves" And ya' know what else, my body is my body too, just like everyone else, but I still have to wear a seatbelt when I'm in a car or on a plane. What if I just want my body to go through the windshield? It's my body right? But, like everyone else I'd get a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt (or helmet on a bike). And finally. I can't go down to the river, climb a tree, and hammer some bald eagle eggs. They're protected, and I would be fined and thrown in jail. So to some people, a bald eagle embryo is the same as a bald eagle, while a human embryo is not the same as a human. I pray that Jesus comes this very minute. May God reveal himself in powerful ways to those who do not know Him! PBWY.

What The Eucharist Really I... added: 35 days ago
AWESOME video..........remember people.... Your pastor, your elders, your parents, your youth group or bible study group and your church are probably well meaning, smart people. However, do not hold their teaching above Jesus's. HE said, (unambiguously, adamently, and over and over) "this is my body" Trust Jesus, believe Jesus, and listen to Jesus over the others. Others with much more education than I, have told me it is not actually His body, but a representation. I read the scriptures myself and have made up my own mind. If I trust Jesus and am faithful to what He says, even though it is difficult (JOHN 6:60), then if I am wrong at least I can say that I trusted Him. If I believe anyone else and am wrong, then I am at fault for trusting another over Him, and also at fault for partaking in the Eucharist without knowing what it is. PBWY

Jesus in New York added: 37 days ago
I pray that what I say will bring peace to those who do not understand the Catholic/Biblical view of the Eucharist. In EXOD 25:8 God tells Moses, "Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will DWELL among them"...then God describes the ark to be built. NOTE, the Ark is beautiful and made with pure gold and other beautiful materials. 2 SAM 6:16 says that David leaped and danced before the Lord as the ark of the Lord was entering the City of David. Next, LUKE 1:43-44 "But why am I so favored that the mother of my Lord should come to me? As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy" Just like David leaped for joy before the ark, now so does John the Baptist (Elizabeths baby) Why? Because Mary has become the new arc, carrying Jesus. Now, Hebrews is a great resource to read about the word becoming flesh...but the short version is John 1:14 "The Word became flesh and made his DWELLING among us" Clearly John is speaking of Jesus. Jesus is the new covenant. Why? 2 CORINTH 3:6 "He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant-not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life." BTW if you haven't figured, I am Catholic and I believe in Scripture and tradition. IF there is ever a contradiction, I would choose Scripture. over tradition, but I have never found a contradiction. However, for non-Catholics who believe Sola Scriptura, explain how you can call the Eucharist anything but the body and blood of Jesus Christ, when He is ADAMENT that it is His body and blood, over and over in scripture. John 6:51 "The bread is my flesh..." 6:56 "Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him." I cannot explain how bread and wine become his body, but I also cannot explain how He turned water into wine at Cana. Or how He walked on water or a number of other things. But why can we believe those things, but cannot believe Him when He says his body becomes bread and wine? Was the wine they drank at the wedding in Cana not really wine? Was it water that tasted like wine? By faith I believe it was wine! Was Lazarus not really dead? Do we question all the miracles, or just the ones we don't understand? Those who question the body and blood of Jesus in the Eucharist remind me of those who didn't believe Jesus when He said His flesh and blood should be eaten in John 6:60 "On hearing it, many of his disciples said, "This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?" and then in 6:66 "From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him." I know it is difficult, but so are all the miracles, if you lack faith. Your church may teach that it is not his body or blood, but instead some spiritual representation. But if you believe that then you hold your church (or pastors) teaching over Jesus's. Jesus said we should eat His flesh and drink His blood. If it was his body and blood back then, it is the same now. If it a "cracker" now, then it was a cracker then. But that would go against what Jesus taught. Saying it is not his body and blood makes Him ambiguous when in the Bible he seems adament. Paul agrees, I believe, in 1 Corinth 10:16. The verses are overwhelming for the argument that it is His body and blood. Lastly, the Monstrace (sun looking thing with a window in the middle) holds the Lords body, or cracker, if you are not Catholic. As God instructed Moses to build a beautiful ark where he could dwell, the Monstrance holds the body of Christ, the bread, in which Jesus dwells and through which He dwells among us today 1 John 14. Having a Monstrance is not satan worshipping as some have commented. If it is, then Moses and the Isrealites were satan worshippers for building the ark they built. David too would be a satan worshipper for leaping and dancing before the ark which was the presence of the Lord according to 2 SAM 6:16 I do not condemn those who do not believe the bread and wine are actually Jesus's flesh and blood. I only believe that it is no more, or no less, the body and blood of Jesus Christ today as it was the night He gave it to His disciples. Those who do not believe it is His actual body could say the exact same thing, saying "It is bread and wine now, it was bread and wine then." I used a minimal amount of scripture for an argument which I believe has overwhelming scriptural support. I would like to see an overwhelming SCRIPTURAL argument for the opposite view. OVERWHELMING not VAGUE. But if one cannot be presented, then at least try and accept that Catholics believe the host is Jesus's body and the wine is Jesus's blood, and know that we honor His presence where ever He is. For David He was in an ark. It wasn't the actual ark David was excited about, there could have been 10 arks made, but it was the presence of the Lord (where God said He would dwell in EXOD 25:8) that David was excited over. And when John the Baptist leaped in the womb it was not for the worship of Mary, it was for Jesus. For Moses God spoke through a bush. Did God command Moses to take off his sandals? Yes. Was that ground holy on it's own, or because God was there? God's presence is Holy, and the honor the Catholic church gives the host is entirely appropriate. I hope I have spoken accurately. If I have made errors in anyway, please forgive me first, pray for me second, and finally respond to me as though I were your own brother. PEACE

Additionally, em3rica89....Even IF the Pope was appointed by men, as you say....who appointed the pastor of your church?

Ave Maria added: 39 days ago
PROTESTANT: "As a Catholic, have you asked Jesus to be your personal Lord and Savior?"
CATHOLIC: "Yes, I certainly have. And have you asked Mary to be your Holy Mother?" We have a veterens day to honor veterens, a presidents day to honor presidents, and a secretarys day to honor secretaries.......We honor so many people in history, but yet, some Christians fail to honor Mary, the Saints or the martyrs. We honor people who died for our country, but fail to give honor for people who lived or died for our Christian faith, in fear that God may not approve. He himself sent His Son to be born from her body to be raised by her and her husband Joseph. MARY WAS NOT A DAYCARE PROVIDER who should simply be left in the shadows of our Christian faith.

The thing with most secular music is that most of the lyrics glorify something. Like lost love, @@@ual intimacy, boyfriend/girlfriend type of relationships, or lust. A lot of music promotes drug use, violence or power (in the form of money). Heaven minded people should not be interested in worldly persuits or self gratification. I like secular music; 8 Ball and MJG and I think The Family Guy is funny. But I do not listen to that kind of music, or watch that kind of TV. What I see and what I hear influences me, so I am careful not to expose myself to harmful influences even if they seem innocent/harmless. "For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life." (1 THES 4:7)

Everybody on Earth dies and goes to Heaven. God comes and says, "I want the men to make two lines. One line for the men that dominated their women on Earth and the other line for the men that were dominated by their women. Also, I want all the women to go with St. Peter."

Said and done, the next time God looked, the women are gone and there are two lines. The line of the men that were dominated by their women was 1000 miles long, and in the line of men that dominated their women, there was only one man.

God got mad and said, "You men should be ashamed of yourselves. I created you in my image and you were all whipped by your mates. Look at the only one of my sons tht stood up and made me proud. Learn from him! Tell them My son, how did you manage to be the only one in this line?"

And the man replied, "I don't know. My wife told me to stand here."
