rey, why start another one? The first one was very good, lots of hits, lots of comments, lots of good discussion. Why not continue here?
Morning. Reply...
Thank you  I was wondering how many times and ways I could say the same thing. Have a great day! Reply...
I follow you now....it all makes sense. Reply...
Apparently I'm not conveying my thoughts very clearly.... I don't find it odd that there are catholic churches on Indian reservations, nor do I think its odd that Native Americans are catholic. I think its wonderful for any people to have a belief system no matter what it may be. I'm just saying that I don't think uniformity is necessary ( you asked this question in the beginning of your forum). I think there are differences in the catholic church because different cultures bring different ideas and traditions into the catholic church, thus the "Mary thing" is more prevalent in Mexico, because the people there must believe and know something we here do not. More then likely its their culture. There is nothing wrong with that. Reply...
Dragonfly,
I know there are Native Americans that are not Catholic they worship the culture....and there are some that are Catholic.
I do not see what is odd about having a church on a Indian Reservation.
Jesus discriminate by race. Reply...
Oh no, I am not suprised that Native American Indians are Catholic......Its great to believe in something, whether its your own people's beliefs or you conform to another, or incorporate different religious practices.I was just simply answering your question in the beginning of your talk forum, should we have uniformity? Reply...
The Catholic Religion is nothing more than modern day Babylonian full of the same pagan practices involving witchcraft and idolatry. Any open mind approach into Catholism and you will find out it is a wicked religion.
Love Catholics, hate Catholism (used to be one) Reply...
Why does it seem to surprise you if there is a Catholic Church in a Native American community?
Not sure how to read your post wondering if you can explain in more detail with the above comment.
Thanks Reply...
My thought about the variety of worship in any religion is a result of the different cultures in the world. For example, within this state the Native American Indian (the largest minnority group) who adopted or conformed to the catholic church brought with them their cultural traditions and incorporated those practices and beliefs. Its is very interesting to see a catholic church in a Native American community. Just like the Mexican who are Spanish and Indian brought their traditions. Why the Mary thing is prevalent, I'm not sure. I don't think we need to have uniformity. We are all so different, yet the same. We need to share and learn the differences, that makes us unique from every corner of the earth. Reply...
Our hearts can get hard. Tiller killed so many innocents I do believe he forgot what he was doing. It can happen. It can become so routine. Reply...
Jesus loves the little children and for someone to take them from this world they have every right to live just as much as anyone of us do.
The abortionist whom his life was ended in a violent way.....this is just my feeling and thoughts on what has happened.
I have talked about purgatory.....I do not believe this man is in purgatory right now I believe he is in some place very uncomfortable.
The reason that I state this is because of his line of profession....he did not feel remorseful for what he did for a living....one of the most important things to Jesus is the little children.
Reply...
Thanks Sneakycat,
I am doing fine for the moment....they had to move the services to Thur/Fri spent sometime with some family I needed to come from and get some odd and ends done until then. Reply...
Glad to see you back Rey! How are you doing? I hope things are going well for you. Sneakycat Reply...
One of my uncles that's a Vietnam Vet also has Agent Orange and he no color pigmentation left to him I would not say albino but he is very very very light face, hands etc. Reply...
Because of Agent Orange my friend has cancer in his mouth. Reply...
Thanks Sneaky Cat....and Fossil Reply...
Prayers to the "Soldiers"..............Vietnam was hell there and hell when they came home-God Bless them and your family.................. Reply...
I'm sorry to hear about your Uncle, Rey. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Hang in there. Reply...
