A Question of the Condom

[Abbadon]

Would the laws of leveticus count as the dogma of the church? Cus that stuff is (phrasing from Batman: The Dark Knight Returns) “balls nasty”

No i went to a public school since grade 9, been a while only revowed my self to find my faith again 1.5 years ago…

No the church really did have something to do with gallileos imprisoning let me check wikipedia (not that you should really trust it as a source but as a quick reference)

But with faith and morals like in Leveticus it has all these rules about slavery and how to conduct polygimy properly (do not take your wifes sister as a wife unless your wife is dead) and like (you may have a slave from a neighbouring nation) what is up with that…

Slavery has in most 1st world contries ceased leagally and most societies tend no longer to have polygamist relationships

give me some examples of the truths of the faith maybe that would help me understand…

Its an institution of god run by man, its not the god part i dont trust just the man part… Humans are such… well just not that great of a species… but “there is great potential” i must admit…

I was wondering Hasnt the position of the church on wheather animals have souls changed?

1ke i know the facts i study are right i have CSRIO giving us lectures about global climate change etc… i’m a design student and they are for some ridiculous reason making sustainability a major part of the course…

The world is not overpopulated. See: pop.org/ and reason.com/news/show/34848.html for good articles.

Much of the common misconception about the world population comes from a faulty, and completely unfounded, books by Malthus and Erlich.

No.

I suggest you buy a copy of the Catechism of the Catholic Church and a Catholic Study Bible and keep reading!

No the church really did have something to do with gallileos imprisoning l

Yes, of course they did. But not for the reason you cite.

et me check wikipedia (not that you should really trust it as a source but as a quick reference)

Wikipedia is not a valid source for any sort of discussion. I suggest you read this article from Catholic Answers.

But with faith and morals like in Leveticus it has all these rules about slavery and how to conduct polygimy properly (do not take your wifes sister as a wife unless your wife is dead) and like (you may have a slave from a neighbouring nation) what is up with that…

As I suggested, a Catholic study bible and Catechism should be procured.

give me some examples of the truths of the faith maybe that would help me understand…

Get a Catechism, all the doctrines are in there.

Its an institution of god run by man, its not the god part i dont trust just the man part… Humans are such… well just not that great of a species… but “there is great potential” i must admit…

God has promised that the Church would not error. The Pope and Bishops are preserved from error when teaching on faith and morals through the Magesterium.

I was wondering Hasnt the position of the church on wheather animals have souls changed?

No, it hasn’t.

Its overpopulated in a sense of equality not reality…

Psalm 93:1, Psalm 96:10, and Chronicles 16:30 state that “the world is firmly established, it cannot be moved.” Psalm 104:5 says, “[the LORD] set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved.” Ecclesiastes 1:5 states that “the sun rises and the sun sets, and hurries back to where it rises.”

Galileo defended heliocentrism, and claimed it was not contrary to those Scripture passages. He took Augustine’s position on Scripture: not to take every passage literally,…

With the loss of many of his defenders in Rome because of Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems, Galileo was ordered to stand trial on suspicion of heresy in 1633. The sentence of the Inquisition was in three essential parts:

I really hate the inqusition… lets call intelligent men/women witches and give them rridiculous unprovable allegations so we can scapgegoat and stop any rise of women/men against us…

What is the position of the church on animals souls you know i think i will get a cathachisum book you speak of honestly i;ve never heard of it…

No

Please see my post on Galileo. I never said he wasn’t arrested.

Dogma

There is only one God in three persons
Jesus is both man and God
Jesus is present in Communion Body, soul and Divinity.
Jesus rose from the dead.
As it has already been suggested, read the Catechism

Hmmm i should probably borrow a catholic bible, the bible i use is this anglican parish one we have lying around the house…
Tell me does the catholic bible have those kinds of things i spoke of earlier in leveticus?

Yes. Go ahead and read your Anglican Bible unti you can get a Catholic one. Does it have a section called “Apocrypha”? Those books are what we call “Deuterocanonical” – and consider to be integral parts of the inspired text, while the Anglicans believe them to be “useful” although not inspired.

But you should get a good Catholic Bible as soon as you can. The Revised Standard Version – Catholic Edition is the best in terms of being closest to the original texts.

Any resource book you will get has a bias.

Any resource has bias in it, I tend to read both sides and make my own conclusion on what makes the most since. History is written by the victor.

Leviticus is Old Testament and were the laws that the Jews lived under. They are not dogma.

What is the position of the church on animals souls you know i think i will get a cathachisum book you speak of honestly i;ve never heard of it…

Animals possess material souls-- the principle that animates them while alive. Plants also have a material soul.

In addition to a material soul, *people *also have spiritual souls, infused by God at conception. The two principle actions of a spiritual soul are intellect and will. It is the spiritual soul that makes us in the image of God.

Yes, the Catholic Bible contains the book of Leviticus.

Perhaps in addition to getting a bible and Catechism you should look into religious education classes for adults at your local Catholic parish.

You really need to start with the basics and become educated in a systematic way rather than jumping all around with random questions.

No, that is not what Galileo claimed, nor why he was arrested.

I really hate the inqusition…

You do not know anything about the Inquisition.

lets call intelligent men/women witches and give them rridiculous unprovable allegations so we can scapgegoat and stop any rise of women/men against us…

This statement is proof you do not know anything about the Inquisition.

The Inqusition was Queen Isabel’s attempt and acievement of religious unity. It had nothing to do with the Church directly. Rather, Queen Isabel forced Jews and Muslims from Spain. The inquision allowed for stabilty in Spain during the Protestant Reformation. Spain was not racked with the turmoil found in other western European countries when Luther, Calvin, and Henry broke from the Church.

Wikipedia is not a neutral source either. The authors there, as I’ve seen, tend to be biased against anything religious and believe in what some people call “The Gospel of Darwin” - science is their substitute for religion, and they believe in it as strongly as we do ours. Catholic Answers, in my impression, at least tries to present the other side fairly.

The earth being the center of the universe was never taught as infallible truth…

Whether or not the teaching was infallibly taught or not, I have an interesting thought for you…

Maybe the Church was right on this one. Maybe the Earth is the center of the universe!

If the universe goes infinitely in all directions, then no place is the center of the universe…and all places are the center of the universe – including the earth!
