The man, identified only by his surname, Chen, suffered from bite marks on his arms and legs. "He took this dangerous action today because he imagined he heard voices," psychiatrist Teng Hui-wen told reporters, saying his case was still being investigated.

Remember when Satan tried to get Jesus to jump off the mountain, and Jesus said... it is written that you shall not tempt the Lord your God.

guardsman Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Uh, that's really old news. Us Catholics need to watch more news or read the paper once in awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KizlarAgha Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Oh and here I thought it was proof that we need to treat those with mental illnesses as human beings and give them treatment. My mistake... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savedbygrace Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 He could have just as likely been Catholic as Buddhist. HE was either drunk or suffers from a mental illness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Eremite Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 The LION is Catholic. He thought the man was a Jehovah's Witness. Why do you think he reacted so violently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toledo_jesus Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 seriously, when I first heard this story it was reported that he was trying to bring the lion to Jesus. Somehow, I don't think that the message took. the only 'good news' that lion heard was "free food". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PedroX Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 It seems to me that we have a saint who preached to animals. Must not have been Catholic after all, huh? Oh, that's right, or is it that all non-Catholics hear voices in their heads telling them to jump in lion cages? Of course, there was that ancient Israelite who did just that. Get over the anti Protestant bias. peace... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember Jesus had compassion for those who were deceived, not emnity. [/quote] I do not have an anti-Catholic bias, I know for a fact that anti-Catholics today have no excuse to spread the lies they do... it just goes to show that they are geniuses for not researching when it's so easy to do so. One cannot soundly and logically argue against something without studying it from the source. People who have computers, or can go to a public library and continue to say that Catholics worship Mary, are a cult, changed the Ten Commandments, are not Christian, etc... have no excuse for their willful ignorance. This does not apply to those who are anti-Catholic and actually start researching the Catholic Church from the Catholic Church. This applies to those like Bob Orris, Jack Chick, Ian Pasley, Rick Jones, etc.... Those anti-Catholics are rumor mongers and gossips... which is spoken against strongly. This post does not apply to all non-Catholics... this applies to the type that insists on tempting God. When something is said about a group, it is common sense and common knowledge that people are different and general statements rarely apply to everyone in a group... common knowledge doesn't need to be brought up every time a blanket statement is written or spoken. Also, thank you for your concern, but I know the scripture and Christ's teachings quite well. God Bless, ironmonk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
