If your motive is concern for young believers, teach them to be discerning. That is how to protect them. Hiding their eyes doesn't teach them to grow.

And yet you want these pesky flies banned. Which are they to you, pesky flies, to be swatted, or demons, to be exorcised? Are you so insecure that you cannot refute those you disagree with?

Thank you for your cooperation.

is what these posters saying of God?If you think it is,let's hear it

if it isn't of God,then there's only one other place it comes from,in which case this forum is giving unfettered access to minions of the enemy

Thanks to all for your topical comments and cooporation in keeping these SermonAudio threads civil, meaningful and on topic.

some of the stuff you allow to be posted here by the enemies of Christ is simply disgraceful

are you asking us to believe that these people have NOT been deluded by satanic false religion?If you are,that's quite a serious position to hold as moderator of what is flagged up as a Christian website.....

it would be a good idea if your position on that exact point were made clear on open forum.....

But then again,you clearly aren't one of those!!

bring on the "ignore the papist" button asap.....it'll be a breath of fresh air to sweep away the apostate ramblings of the roman cultists......" y'all "

e mail the moderators....if you want the "ignore" option introduced,the more there are asking for it,the quicker it is likely to be introduced-and the headcases can rant away as much as they like,populating their own little cyber world of nuttiness

Private interpretation means making scripture say what you would prefer it to say. Soon it says nothing.

....and 57 years a papist....well there's no fool like an old fool!!LOL

are you absolutely sure you don't know of extreme "penance"?
"MANILA —

Devout Filipinos nailed themselves to crosses as "Christians" worldwide Friday marked the most somber day of their calendar, commemorating the crucifixion of Christ.

In the most extreme display of penance, a handful of devout Roman Catholics in the northern Philippines went through an agonizing Good Friday crucifixion re-enactment that has become a gruesome and increasingly controversial annual ritual.

Neighbors costumed like Roman centurions dragged penitents through the village streets of San Pedro Cutud and toward a barren hill where three wooden crosses and a large crowd of at least 2,000 tourists awaited.

Eighteen-centimeter metal nails were driven into both palms and feet as they lay spread-eagled over the crosses, which were then raised for about five minutes before being hauled down again and the nails pulled out.
Many more whipped their own backs until they ran blood....."END

You are such a gift

option of- self flagellation,walking on your knees over broken glass,or any other hideous and empty method of self torture or self denial considered....

oh the irony-trading one false religion only to fall into the arms of the biggest one of all(even if it were true that they are trying to "evangelise" them)

The Roman Church is not only bringing the various denominations together, but pagan religions of the world- St. Louis Archbishop Justin Rigali is reported in St. Louis Review, March 25, 1994, as saying, “With deep satisfaction we acknowledge with respect and friendship our brothers and sisters of other religions, especially those associated with Abraham, our own father in faith. We greet our Jewish brothers and sisters, whose religious tradition is the forerunner of our own….” He added, “With our Muslim brethren we honor the living God, the merciful and all-powerful Maker of heaven and earth.” The archbishop is saying that Jews and Muslims, being “brothers and sisters” will go to heaven without faith in Christ.
