Congratulations !
We'll have rice tonight for dinner too, with chicken.
Yes cooking a roast on slow heat on the stove (add some water and white wine after it has browned on all sides) makes it nice and tender and juicy...

Priestly authority and pedohilia connected?
by SEAKEN2001 inis there a correlation between priestly authority and pedohile cover up?.
i have stated that i think there is a direct correlation between the power and authority of priests or elders and the silence of victims of pedohilia and the lack of prosecution of these sexual predators.
i held that it was as common among catholics to believe that their priesthood is "holy" and the spokeman for god as it is among jw's to believe that their elders and the governing body are appointed by holy spirit and direct representatives of god.

I can't answer that question.
Catholics are not inculcated with doctrines the way the Watchtowerites are.
I must say that I have great respect for this Pope, he just seems to be a great person. That doesn't mean that I would follow his advice of not using birth control.... Most Catholics are like that too. -

I must be getting old....
by teejay ini remember the andy griffith show (featuring the affable deputy fife) from the earliest times of my life.
it will be popular when my daughter is old and gray, no doubt.
but now... i'm beginning to wonder about me.... i find myself watching i love lucy whenever it's on, and i once hated... i say hated, the show.

We watch the Ed Sullivan show too on our local public TV.
And I certainly didn't grow up watching it, didn't even know who Ed Sullivan was.... Hey, I grew up in France !
But it is so interesting to see Michael Jackson with the Jackson five, a black cute little kid, look at him now !!!
And Elvis Presley, and Barbara Streisand, and Tom Jones, and what's his name,,, the one who sings "Sweet Caroline", Neil Diamond... -

Is there the same kind of mind control in the Catholic Church, with respect to authority and God's power, as there is in cults like the JW's? Do Catholics believe that to question their priests authority is to question their direct relationship with God?
I have never experienced any mind control in the Catholic Church.
The Catholics I know and have known over the years live their lives pretty much as they want to live it. Noone is telling them not to wear facial hair, how they should and shouldn't dress, not to send their children to College, etc. The priests I have known were always open to discussions, and you're not shunned by an entire congregation if you stop going to church ! -

Best National Anthem
by Mulan inokay, let's do a poll.. since it looks like many of us are watching the olympics, let's vote on which country has the best national anthem.. i love canada's.
i find myself hoping a canadian will win, so i can sing along to their song.. when the russians win, i get a cold disquieting feeling, since they adopted the old soviet anthem again.
too many memories of the old ussr.. marilyn (aka mulan).

Allons enfants de la patrie
Le jour de gloire est arrivé
Contre nous de la tyrannie
L'étendard sanglant est levé...

WHEN THE FECAL MATTER HITS THE FAN
by You Know in------------------- when the fecal matter hits the fan!
the book of malachi is addressed to the priests of israel after the time of judgment when the babylonians destroyed the nation.
but, in reality, the prophecy applies to the anointed priests of the christian era who are similarly in a legally binding covenant relationship with jehovah god.

"I have loved you people."
What people? why would this be directed to a handful of 21st century christian fundamentalists ?

Is becoming an NGO the same as fornicating with the enemy? I don't think so.
Why aren't the rank and file Witnesses allowed to join their local YMCA, then ?
They just want to take advantage of its ressources, for their own well-being...
