Vatican welcomes Anglicans into Catholic Church

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Oct 23, 2009 -> 10:59 PM) Actually, in reading the fine print, it turns out your first-born child soul will be garnished and held in escrow (or Limbo) until someone pays the (Peter) Piper. Unless you're Jewish, and then your soul is put into a high-interest mutual fund run by your mother's friend's son that she wishes was a doctor or lawyer, but this career will do in the meantime. -

Vatican welcomes Anglicans into Catholic Church

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Oct 22, 2009 -> 04:40 PM) Many Christian faiths do, in fact, allow for that. Catholicism, for example, offers you the chance to confess and atone for your sins - literally giving you a clean slate. Others state that you can atone for your sins by accepting God into your heart. So does Judaism with Yom Kippur. Fast for one day and atone for your sins of the last year. The difference is that Catholicism drills it into your head EVERY DAY! I just don't understand how some people can deal with that. I mean, basically, you walk out of the confessional...and you've sinned again. Ugh. -

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Oct 22, 2009 -> 03:20 PM) I think it's all a matter of perspective, actually. Why would you not want to be a part of a faith that allows you to reach a personal understanding with your flaws and your own lapses from an ethical code - be it your own or your faith's? There comes a point in many people's lives where they come up against their own demons, flaws and failures. As far as I'm concerned, this part of the Christian faith - which essentially draws a fat line under our imperfections - helps people come to terms and move beyond and past those imperfections with a degree of humility. Frankly, I think it's one of the most appealing parts of Christianity - the knowledge that we are all broken people and that our deeds are what helps us rise above our flaws. While I understand that...some people may not feel that way.... The constant uphill battle to try to figure out what you've done morally wrong and how to be better can be very taxing. Especially for someone who might be more weak-minded. Everyone needs a day to feel like they are ok...and Christianity doesn't allow for that, at least not without consequences. -
Unfortunately, they are no more...

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 21, 2009 -> 05:06 PM) I worked with my current fiance. For every bit of bad that can come out of it, there is also plenty of good that can come from work-place incidents. I also know a few other people who are married to people they met at work. Of course I never worked with this person, but regardless my company had zero policies against this sort of behavior. The only rule was that anyone who was seeing someone couldn't work on the same consulting team as there significant other. I met my wife at work...in fact, I met my previous wife at work as well. Neither were direct reports, either them to me or me to them. There's no reason why a workplace relationship shouldn't work as long as, both parties are single and/or one doesn't report to the other.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 22, 2009 -> 02:49 PM) I think it was the hamstring tear off the bone more than the knee injury that has reduced Harris to mere mortal status Whoops, you're right...
-
QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 20, 2009 -> 10:22 PM) Yeah, Harris has been a bust all-around...he simply never returned to the player he was before the injury. Merriman seems to be having the same experience in San Diego. To defend him...it's gonna take a long time to get back to the explosiveness a DT needs when you have a knee injury like that.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 21, 2009 -> 03:10 PM) I know you are here to mock and laugh, just like you always do when Christianity comes up, but there is a very important distinction that AHB is totally missing. Man is not to sit in judgment of others. All of us are sinners, whether we want to admit it or not. The bible pretty clearly states that all sins are equal under his eyes, because at the end of the day, they all are about us taking away the decision making power for what is best for our lives away from God. Even if you believe that the bible is telling you homosexuality is wrong, it is not up to you, me, the Catholic Church, or anyone else of this world to deny them God. That is between that person and God. Especially when you factor in the best example of a Christian life we have, and look at type of people that Jesus Christ took into his inner circle, I don't think there is a sin around that should be powerful enough to deny someone who wants to know God that chance. We ALL commit enough sins that applying the same standard of biblbical wrongness to ourselves, not a single person alive should be a priest. I don't know how anyone could WANT to be part of a faith that believes this...how depressing. Stop looking at the nurse with those bedroom eyes, newborn. Sinner! -

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 20, 2009 -> 05:02 PM) most of those clips weren't from olbermann opinion shows. None of them were, except for the interview at the end. And the entire thing was put together by Media Matters...

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Oct 20, 2009 -> 04:15 PM) Well Compiled: Unfortunately, with the guy from Media Matters going on Olbermann...that just gives more ammunition to Fox News since Olbermann is unabashedly Democratic.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 20, 2009 -> 03:26 PM) If he continues to struggle, the Hawks will acquire another goalie and Huet will be in Rockford. Rocky knows a Stanley Cup appearance and/or win is worth a lot more than what he would have to eat of Huet's contract. They are a lock for the playoffs, but will try to salvage Huet. I would expect 30,40 maybe 50 games into the season, if he's still struggling, he gone. They are going for it. They have to, because they probably aren't going to be able to afford the young core of the team.
