Apathy Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I just can't decide which religion I want. I want one where you don't have to pray too much, no have to do any volunteer work. Does anyone know a religion that has a benefit medical package? Oh well... This posting is hard work, wish Sloth would take over a while. Well I'm out of here. Take care if you dare but me I never dare much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Socrates Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 He's not happy, he's apathetic. Apathy and his no-good brother, Sloth, don't listen to their grandfather Wisdom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laudate_Dominum Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I chose not to vote because none of those options reflect my answer to the question, "what do you think about other religions". Obviously I believe there is no salvation outside the Church (understood according to the Church's teachings on this matter). But this doesn't say what I think about other religions. And I think different things about different religions. It's a complicated question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyLikeABird Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 [quote name='philothea' date='Jun 26 2005, 06:14 PM']I'd go with 1 and 2 both if I could. I think other religions have some profound insights, but the Catholic Church has the means of salvation. [right][snapback]624778[/snapback][/right] [/quote] I agree. I voted #2 but really I think like philothea, with a healthy dose of #4 sprinkled on top : There is much merit in other religions, but I hold that the Catholic Church is the most faithful (didn't say perfect, humans are never perfect - except Jesus) interpretation of God's will.

[right][snapback]712903[/snapback][/right] [/quote] No, you can't really just change yourself. You just do a little and let yourself be changed. It won't be a work of effort even if it seems that way at first, but it will become an act of joy. Absolutely no slavish drudery required! You'll have peace and joy and someone to share your burdens with when they come up in life. It's awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
