Not targeting you, Berz, but I find that most Americans really don't understand religion (esp those that are not their own) very well.

I was on a flight to Tel Aviv a few years ago (when I took a trip with my family to Israel). Just before takeoff someone had some sort of medical problem and a flight attendant said over the intercom, "Are there any doctors on this plane?" and I think I saw at least 50 people stand up.

I'm pretty sure Pediatrician is the kind of doctor that knows the most about, well, everything. Because they have to be able to diagnose all of the ailments that happen to children, which is ALL OF THE AILMENTS, plus they have to be able to diagnose psychosomatosis parentis as well.<Reverend> IRC is just multiplayer notepad.

The Orthodox also believe that the elements are the body and blood of Christ, though they are content to let it be a mystery, and don't got into theories of how it happens like the Western Church did .
The Lutheran Church believes in the Real Presence of Christ as well, but more of a Christ is present within the elements (ie, spiritually) as opposed to the elements transforming into body and blood.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
- John 13:34-35 (NRSV)

Originally posted by Elok View Post? I'm the Orthodox one--I don't know what, if anything, MRT believes. Like Imran says, we believe that it, in some sense, becomes the literal body and blood of Christ. We just don't trouble over the precise mechanics of it. It was a sticking point for certain protestants who think Jesus was just speaking symbolically.

17/3 on the science, 5/-11 on the religion. (Or, like a lot of others here, correct on everything except the great awakening question, where I guessed wrong.)
What I'd really like to see is what happens when peope get a question wrong, get told the right answer, and then take the test again some number of months later. My guess is the results would be even more depressing.Click here if you're having trouble sleeping.
