Rest in Power, Good Sir.

May he rest in peace.

I don’t see any good reason why rainbows can’t be used in an entirely different way too, as an ancient symbol from the Book of Genesis. The Christian use of the symbol is far older than the modern appropriation, after all. Just a thought.

But that is what you believe. DaddyGirl wouldn’t use the same terms you do when she doesn’t believe as you do.

As Catholic Christians, we KNOW what the Eucharist is…what I question is the 63% figure…it certainly doesn’t coincide with my experience…the Catholics I know recognize same-sex marriage as the abomination it is…

You only “know” because of your faith and belief though.

The scientific evidence shows it’s not a good thing at all.

Why you responded about scientific evidence to my post is beyond me. I was responding about “knowing” about the Eucharist.

Never read any myself, but spent way too much time in front of the old TV shows of Thor, Captain America and co. Good times.

There is no such scientific evidence.

The LORD detests lying lips, but he delights in people who are trustworthy.

Am I the only one who thinks it is odd that they used as their symbol what God used after he destroyed the world for their sinfulness?

I don’t. Rainbows and other arrangements showing a spectrum of colors have been integrated into the iconography of many organizations and groups for some time. Being an optical and meteororiginal phenomenon people from all over the world have seen them. The gay flag is said to have been inspired by another rainbow flag that was made to represent diversity. Also I understood that the story of the world flood is one that isn’t declared as necessarily literal in Catholicism.
