Those cardinals must be wetting themselves at the thought it might be theit time soon.Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

If you look at their age, many of those Cardinals might not survive till the day when they get a chance to get elected as JP2s succesor
Maybe many of them even die at the moment when they get to know, that the pop is dead, because they get a Heart Attack out of ExcitementTamsin (Lost Girl): "I am the Harbinger of Death. I arrive on winds of blessed air. Air that you no longer deserve."

I think the best path to God is through Christianity and that the Seventh-Day Adventist church has the best doctrine out there
I myself am an agnostic Catholic (is there any other kind?), with a general disliking of Protestantism (how stereotypical of me).Quod Me Nutrit Me Destruit

At least the lutheran Protestantism which we have in Germany, where it isn´t one of small protestant Sects like in America, but an established Church just like the Roman Catholics (we have around thesame numbr of Lutheran Protestans in Germany, as Roman Catholics).
Unlike Catholics, we have female Priests (although only few) and are more open to certain social things, like Gays, Contraception, oecumenicity or Divorcements for example.
Seems to be more like the things Jesus stood for, I thinkTamsin (Lost Girl): "I am the Harbinger of Death. I arrive on winds of blessed air. Air that you no longer deserve."

Clearly, Bananaism is the ultimate form of religious expression & is the only true faith.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

I'm one of those strange people that believe that all the idols people worship are God and Jesus.
As for the one true church, the only one that can meet that claim (among the Christian churches), is the Catholic church.
The others, including mine, can only say we have a better doctrine.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

The Anglican church has those same things. What do you think makes Lutheranism "better" or "more right" than Anglicanism?
(note: I'm asking about English Anglicanism and Continental Lutheranism here, not American spin-off churches).
and, lst but not least that it hasn´t an Leader, who tries to hinder ecumenic movements, for example to prohibit the members to take part in a Communion with Believers of other Christian churches.
In short:
That it allows more personal freedoms for its members.
I don´t think though that Lutheranism is more "right" than Catholicism, as I mentioned before, I don´t bekliev that there is one "true" faith and every faith just sees parts of the real Truth, but none of them the whole truth.
But because of Lutheran Church being more open-minded, I think it is better to be Lutheran than to be Catholic.
Maybe I would se it different, if JP1 had lived longer and had started a Reformation of the catholic Church
As for Anglicanism, I canot say anyting about it, because I don´t know it.
If Anglicanism has the same reedoms and Openmindednes, it is also better than te catholic church.Last edited by Proteus_MST; September 26, 2003, 09:39.Tamsin (Lost Girl): "I am the Harbinger of Death. I arrive on winds of blessed air. Air that you no longer deserve."

As an altruistic unorthodox Voodoo practitioner, I can safely say... whatever works for you.
Altruism - because it's all true.
At least, that's what the believers will tell you...Some cry `Allah O Akbar` in the street. And some carry Allah in their heart.
