Roman Catholism
-
Actually (no offence to all other Christians) some religious people tend to be paranoia about such things. Like Muslim and Salman Rushdie.Originally posted by Icemoon:That time bo bian, want to read but all the English copies in the libraries (even the school library!) loaned out or reserved.
The chinese translation sometimes can get you confused. They use "Jiao4 Huang2, Zhu3 Jiao4, Jiao4 Zhu3", three similar looking names, for pope, cardinal and bishop. Then hor, for the "Pope" clue in the Isaac Newton puzzle, the chinese also write "jiao4 zhu3" .. wah lao, like that forever cannot guess siah, as if the person in question really is ya3 li4 shan1 da4 jiao4 zhu3!

I re-read the back chapters yesterday for the English version. Now I understand the story better. While Dan Brown wrote that Opus Dei and the Vatican are innocent, I still can't figure out who caused the car accident.
By the way, the body really buried under the thing at the end issit? Haha ...

Thing in the last page - yes, it is.

As least Jin Yong don't tout his work as some proper historical research, that's what gotten some Christians upset.
Dan Brown, to me is guy trying to make a living out of writing books. He may be hiding behind the guise of a person doing research, but it does not take a genius to figure that his just writing a novel.
You'd probably enjoy Angels and Demons. This time directly whacking RCs...
Enjoy..... -

Shit lah .. the above is written by me and I even quoted the name wrongly! Goes to show how confusing are the names.
Should be jiao4 huang2 for the Isaac Newton puzzle and ya4 li4 shan1 da4 jiao4 huang2.

Not really laugh lah, but there are translation issues, which should not be issue to question the authenticity of the Bible (in case smart folks want to debate on it - again)....
Translation issue include prevalent cultural taboos, eg the word sex or sexual intercourse is not commonly used in the early earliers, hence the use of "know".
Short of learning 3 languages, I guess English will have to do, unless I come across something really vague or controversial, then I will refer to writings and works of scholars.
Return of the Condor Heros? Nah, the English translation just don't cut it. So how does it go in the English version: Yang Guo to Xiao Long Nu: Auntie, auntie don't leave me..... yeeks.
Harry Potter? Hah, Ha Lee Por De just doesn't work.
Sorry, nothing about RC....oops -
You said RC is not Christian. What heretic ? I have studied Buddhism, Protestant Christian ( I was a Methodist btw) etc and i am still praying to Jesus. Do you know where your Bible is from ? From the Pope and the councils. For the first hundred years, there was no Bible just RC.Originally posted by fandango:Ooooo C'mon.....
Nobody mainstream Christians will agree with you Ask the archbishop of Canterbury, ask George Bush etc.Unless your church is a cult. -
Your church must be a cult tothink like that... whu don't you join a RC mass service and see for yourself. Pls don't read here and there or listen to your heretical pastors, see for yourselfOriginally posted by NeonTetra:in a sense yes.....he mean that. and i mean tt too. -
Good for you. God bless you. You have come to the apostolic church. Let us continue to respect other denominations and correct the cults.Originally posted by kailun:I agreed with you x2. I want to be catholic too and have decided to take up catholic class next year and I was from other dinomination. -
urm, just an innocent question.. what does RC consider as other denominations and what is considered cults?Originally posted by sliew:Good for you. God bless you. You have come to the apostolic church. Let us continue to respect other denominations and correct the cults. -
Right, if you were what you said you were - a Methodist, i assume you have a bible that you used when you were a Methodist, and i will further assume that you have a Roman Catholic Bible. If you want to get to the bottom of this issue - that is if you really care, compare both bible. It takes a little bit of time but you will soon realise...wouww......very different.Originally posted by sliew:You said RC is not Christian. What heretic ?

Why is there such differences? thats the answer to the question where the bible came from. The Roman Catholic bible came from the careful scrutinising and altering by the Pope and the Council in the first 100 years. (You may be right here). But I am sure the Protestants uses the bible from the faihful translation from the original scriptures. (This have also changed because those modern versions NIV,NKJV adopted the transalation of the Roman Catholic text. Bad news. )
Nobody will agree with me? You will be surprised.
George Bush? That may be the last person you want to mention. George W Bush and Bush Snr are life members of a secret society called The Skull and Bones. And.......get ready for this....it is a society that worship.....tada.....Lucifer. -

Your reply was unwise. Neon WAS a Catholic. You think he never attended RC mass service before?
The question is, what about you? How acquainted are you with Protestant doctrines?
Ok, let's be honest. There are numerous Protestant doctrines. While christians like fandango may subscribe to TULIP, others like Neon may not. Not sure about Chin Eng though.
PS: Just realized you were a Methodist. So my question is, what makes a Methodist different from, let's say, a Presbyterian. What is so unique about the theology/preaching of the Wesley brothers? What did they emphasize? -
The TULIP will just blow the Roman Catholics, Charismatic and stupidissmart away man. Shall not talk about now though.

I'm back fellas! Yes can someone provide some examples? I'm very interested to know.Originally posted by NeonTetra:if u want to know the difference between Catholic Jesus and Biblical Jesus...hmm...can someone post a few..i will add on. -

now u know wat I am talking about ? -
You will notice that the issue currently surrounds the coming election. But when it was in the headlines 2 years ago, he didn't come forward to oppose the issue. If his administration at that time gave the go-ahead, someone of higher authority must have sanctioned it. The Legislative Council? VP Dick?
-
I don't know wat happened 2 years ago but now he appears to be against it. I thought gay marriages r already legal before he become a president.
