After having been lullabied by the rosary, stations of hte cross, and daily Mass, we now bring you [b]The Ultimate Showdown of Professional Catholics[/b]. Rated PG-13.

I haven't memorized the documents, I have them all saved in my favorites because I use them alot.

She's pretty dang smart, even with a brain injury. in fact, i usually find her charitable posts very helpful and i learn a lot from her. edited for information, because it was bugging me. from the Q&A phorum: [quote]CatherineM also known as Catherine Mardon has a Bachelors of Science in Agriculture (Forestry) from [b][url="http://osu.okstate.edu/"]Oklahoma State University[/url][/b], a Juris Doctor from the [b][url="http://www.law.ou.edu/"]University of Oklahoma College of Law[/url][/b], and a Bachelors of Art in Pastoral Ministry from [b][url="http://www.newmanu.edu/"]Newman University[/url][/b] in Wichita, Kansas. She is currently working on a Masters in Theological Studies degree from [b][url="http://www.newman.edu/Index.aspx"]Newman Theological College[/url][/b] in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Her specialties are in the area of Moral Theology, Canon Law, and liturgical vestments. Her legal practice included tribunal work, mediation, death penalty appeals, and a variety of low income concerns. She worked extensively in a rural crisis ministry, with ecumenical organizations, the homeless, and as a speaker on social justice issues. After being forced into early retirement due to a disability, she raised foster children, and is currently married to Austin, an advocate for the mentally ill. When she isn’t sitting in classes with seminarians half her age, she enjoys sewing, singing, water aerobics, and disc golf. She teaches in the RCIA program, serves on a provincial Human Trafficking Commission, and recently had her first book published.[/quote] Edited June 28, 2011 by Lil Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were thinking a small room with 2 metal folding chairs and a single light bulb hanging down. It would've been hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fides' Jack Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Well, if you do make a new Cath vs Cath debate board for those entrusted with the title, Church Militant, then I'd like to request said honorary certificates. I'd also like to point out that a lot of times when the debates happen, users will end up calling names and pointing to character flaws, rather than argument flaws. Perhaps you could do #1 and #2 - try out the board for a while, and at the same time ensure that both sides of an argument are warned when uncharitable remarks are thrown around.

MithLuin Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I think you're right; it does present the opportunity for scandal. It also brings down the entire demeanor of the board. I'll try to be more careful to avoid this in the future. Unfortunately, it *will* keep coming up, because religion is one of those topics.....

And a reminder like that should have been done in a pm. And since you constantly make a big deal out of your degrees and travel and passports etc etc ad nauseum, YOU tell me why a bunch of parchment papers matter. Constant criticism? You ain't seen nuthin' yet. kthxbai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
